Sad Cardinal

On this day in 1993, in what announcer Dick Stockton called, "a withering display of basketball talent," Kentucky hits on its first eight 3-pointers to build a 34-8 lead to demolish Wake Forest 103-69 in the Southeast Regional at the Charlotte Coliseum.
Travis Ford, and Jamal Mashburn, who scored all 23 of his points and hit all five of his 3s before halftime, combined for 49 points on 10 of 11 shooting from 3.
The Wildcats and Demon Deacons have met 3x in the NCAA Tournament, with UK winning all three by an average of 28 points.

@KySportsRadio Keep doing your job Matt...athletes making millions deserve criticism when they don't meet expectations.

@Salttown @GoodmanHoops Don't worry...coaches were saying the same thing about Kentucky's last coach. He is doing great elsewhere but he wasn't willing to change anything here. Good for the Tarheels.

@GoodmanHoops Hahahah!! Someone finally said it out loud! I’ve been saying this for 5 years!

@SECbaseball Win 13 games in conference is the only thing to worry about.

On his message to fans who are down right now...
Pope cites growth and improvement the last two years. Says they've only played 5/56 games against P4 teams with a full roster. Notes that they still have a higher winning % in the last two years than the previous four, and it was done while playing a harder strength of schedule and facing really bad health misfortune. Clearly, we did not meet the standard, but we are making progress.

@ChrisFisherKY What have you seen in the coaching of these players that indicates things are improving?

Mark Pope on BBN
"Here's the thing, we can get confused sometimes. So there is a super, super vocal like, 1% a point 1% but they're incredibly vocal and and a lot of is wrapped around trying to get hits and looks and bites and listeners. And then there's the 99% of BBN that is in this as true believers. They love this program, they're cheering their guts out. They're living and dying for our guys. They want nothing more for for this progress to continue to for us to get to another banner, and they're doing everything they can to help the program, not hurt the program. ... everybody I meet and we meet, a lot of people post game lines around town. Everybody that I see BBN like the true BBN, they are so in this they are so praying for us to be successful. That's different than when I talk about the people that are just trying to capitalize off, you know, putting out negative about 20 seconds...."

"At the end of the day, I think the [Kentucky] fan base needs to temper their expectations, Mark Pope has this thing going in the right direction."

@lexkypolice Hello police! Just a question about clothing donation bins...Louisville recently cracked down on illegal ones. They have been popping up in Lexington now. The one in Tates Creek Centre has become a trash bin. Are these legal in Lexington?

@kentuckyhoopsig Was Jason Hart that pulled him back out? Thanks to him as well!

This is my favorite Brandon Garrison play of the game:
Leaving his body on the line which leads to an extra possession and crucial overtime bucket for the Cats
Love this from BG #BBN

@cutler1300 @KySportsRadio @MrsTylerKSR @JackPilgrimKSR @ESPNRadioLex @ryanlemond Chris Cross should have done the interview!

Matt Jones @KySportsRadio has built an empire. I respect that, and said that many times. But what he did and KSR did is wrong. A lot of respect for @MrsTylerKSR and @JackPilgrimKSR but what their website did was wrong. wlxg.com/?p=332956 @ESPNRadioLex @ryanlemond @vaughtsviews @ryanlemond

A guy goes into a store and asks the clerk, “I’d like some Polish sausage.”
The clerk looks at him and says, “Are you Polish?”
The guy, clearly offended, says, “Well, yes I am. But let me ask you: if I had asked for Italian sausage, would you ask if I was Italian? Or if I had asked for German sausage, would you ask if I was German? Or if I had asked for a taco, would you ask if I was Mexican? Huh? Would ya?”
The clerk says, “Well, no…”
With deep self-righteous indignation, the guy says, “Well, alright then, why the hell did you ask if I’m Polish just because I asked for Polish sausage?”
The clerk says, “Because this is a hardware store.”
