My top UK shots in NCAA tourney
1) All 3 Harrison buzzer beaters
2) Knight vs OSU & Prncton
3) Oweh half court heave
4) Delk 4 pt play in title game
5) Mills/Padgett vs Duke to send to Final 4
6) Sparks 3 forces OT vs Mich St
7) Givens banks in baseline jumper for 41 pts
English
@BallerBluegrass @TerrellTres Padgett 3 was the actual game winner vs Duke. Not Mills. I have never understood why this is a mandela effect among BBN.
English
@TerrellTres Top 4 because it’s a tourney game…behind Aaron’s 3’s in ‘14, Mills’ 3 to beat Duke in ‘98, and Knight’s dagger over the Buckeyes in ‘11.
English
Where does that Otega Oweh shot rank for you all-time in Kentucky history?
English
@koryhBBN How old are you? Cause 98 comeback on Duke is unquestionably number 1. Specifically the two Kentucky born players, Padgett and Mills, hitting go ahead 3s.
English
2nd.
1. Harrison 3’s
2. Otega
3. Knight Princeton/OSU
4. Sparks 05 (would be higher if we won)
5. Cousins SEC title game

@2ndChancePoints I can only remember that ever happening when the clock failed to start. And play was not quickly stopped. Then they would manually time it to see how much time should have ran off. Never saw it in an end of game situation.
English
@BlueonD_Loop Agreed in spirit, but I’ve seen them make that call/change before
English
The clock starting late here drives me bananas for Santa Clara. Review it and manually time it! Hell of a shot though

An all-time MADNESS sequence. Coming to a One Shining Moment montage soon.

@ConnectBlue25 @KentuckyMBB Leach botched it. He said "for the win" instead of tie.
English
@KentuckyMBB I’d play it on repeat if it had the Tom Leach audio with it
English
Be honest, how many times have you watched this?

@CBSSportsCBB @LaurenShehadi You are making way more than them my dude. How about take some responsibility?

"I'm gonna fire my staff. Yeah, I am ... The only thing I'm gonna do is fire them and get a new staff."

As someone who worked for 4 or 5 different head coaches at the D-1 level, this is gross.
His staff lives & dies at the office. They give up their weekends & holidays & time with their families for 5 long months to make things go for him.
Throwing them under the bus is pathetic.

🚨 #BREAKINGNEWS Its appears Speaker Mike Johnson caught on hot mic that The Save Act would result in 12% to 18% voter turnout. Saying that would be huge for the Republican Party. The Save Act is a voter suppression bill. Not elections security.🚨

@jcurt15 @wildcatnews Dudes are also getting paid. So it's fair to criticise.
English
@wildcatnews Welcome to Kentucky and the social media world. There are tons of other places to go if it’s too much. Like Cal said, I can’t hide you here.
English
Let this post game quote from Wildcat Mouhamed Dioubate on teammate Brandon Garrison sink in . . .
BBN Tonight@BBNTonight
Dioubate on Garrison: "All year long, BG's been going through adversity. He's felt down; he wasn't confident in himself because of the media and the fans. But we knew all along the kind of player he was. We believe in him. How he played tonight, we're not surprised."
English
@manunitedpit @ChrisVannini Watch the replay. SCU never had hands on it. The time out actually cost UK a run out.
English
@ChrisVannini -Controversial timeout awarded to Kentucky when it looked like a jump ball
-Officals missed a timeout that Santa Clara coaches called
-Refs missed obvious travel in OT on Kentucky with less than a minute left in OT
REFS!
English
Between the Kentucky timeout, the missed Santa Clara timeout and now that missed Kentucky travel, the officiating in this final stretch has been questionable!
English
@MattSakR2NG Should have been 7. They screwed him on the one called goaltending.
English
I still cannot believe how well Brandon Garrison played today, I am so happy for him
6 blocks!!!
English
@pelsyear @MattSakR2NG Depends on who is available. But BG is not getting bigger and Moreno is not getting quicker. Though he will get stronger. Feel like we could upgrade.
English
Can’t believe I’m saying this but barring a complete stinker on Sunday I think I want to run this center duo back.
This has now been a month+ of Garrison rebounding and blocking shots at a high level

Brandon Garrison BLOCK Brandon Garrison SLAM @kentuckymbb 😤

@FireBurner4 @RonchettiStan @EvanMiya @TJWalkerRadio UK has a long history of guys returning from injury just in time. Goes back decades. BBN just emotionally prepared for it.
English
@RonchettiStan @EvanMiya @TJWalkerRadio yeah go out there with a high ankle
sprain and see what happens
English
If Joshua Jefferson is out for Iowa State's 2nd round matchup against Kentucky, it drops ISU from 8th to 16th at EvanMiya.com after adjusting for his absence.
The injury would be worth a 4.5 point adjustment against Kentucky, dropping the spread from -7.5 to -3.
English
@cletejohnson @EvanMiya Mmm.... We got Oweh, and a bunch of roll players. Some of whom very often do bone headed things. We will be one of the least talented 2nd round teams overall.
English
@EvanMiya I’d still take Iowa State. Kentucky is inconsistent. They have all the talent in the world but don’t always take advantage of it.
English
@bigbluekodakk We do not know what he can handle though. His foot might only be able to give ya 4-5 minutes a half before it starts throbbing.
English
Kam Williams playing 10 minutes today is criminal btw. Only way we win Sunday is if he plays and hits shots
English
@TimBrando @UNC_and_CFB Play to the horn. Basketball is supposed to be fun.
English
Herb Sendek recruited Pope to UK when he worked for Rick Pitino, and that handshake line proves the point. A terrible decision by that kid to dunk that last shot. Bush League!
English
@shelleb50 @vaughtsviews Right. That call actually did not help UK. It took away a break away dunk. SCU never even had hands on the ball to get the tie up. The TO being awarded saved them from a break away.
English
@vaughtsviews Yes very true. On that loose ball scramble - Aberdeen actually had the ball by that time and was dribbling starting for a fast break when Garrison called the timeout. (But will take the favorable whistle for once!)
English
Wow. Saw replay where Oweh took at least 3 steps before passing to Garrison for dunk. Big break for Cats

Otega Oweh is the first high-major player to finish with 35 points, 8 rebounds, and 7 assists in a Division 1 game since Trae Young in 2018.
English
@_CCE_ Still no. Doesn't have the size vs most SEC centers. If he could get his 3pt shot consistent his best position would be as the PF.
English
So. I need to know. BG. Do we want him to come back?
