My girlfriend is supposed to be getting back to Los Angeles on Saturday, so I may miss most (if not all) of the game helping her settle back in.

Still, it's a huge one -- we could really start to turn things around with a W. Or, let things spiral further with a loss.

I know this isn't popular opinion but even as a MGC member and season ticket holder, I don't buy the "you have to donate to criticize" or if you don't donate you're part of the problem, not part of th

I certainly don't want to add gas to the fire....but. a good friend of mine was behind your bench and he said your boy is in over his head. On one play you guys had trapped George Fant in the corner

Believe me, if any of our players start to light you up they'll be promptly subbed out. I'm told that helps them to "mature". We may lose to you by 25...but 10 years from now our players will be bet

This will tell us a lot about where we are headed this year. WKU is missing A LOT due to injury. If we lose this game, I doubt we go .500 in conference. Lose by double digits and I doubt we win 11 games this year.

With the shape WKU is in, this should be a double digit victory.

Courtland, that Teddy Roosevelt thing aint exactly gettin it done.

So, just for kicks, there's no way we win another game this year.

I think he's about .500 at this point.

Plus, it cracks me up. I may quit it for awhile if we get on a sustained losing streak (like the schedule seems to be setting us up for).

i'm right there with you amigo.

we play the little weasel tonight that i didn't want as our coach but the state newspapers were trying to shove down our throats. every time we're in the looking for a coach bidness the louieville and lexington newspapers tell us what former kat or card we need to hire.

last year it was pelphrey (i'd have given up season tickets) from the kayutt fans and it was little dick (richard) pitino from the card fans.

dickerson is out until who knows when. crook has a broken foot. his backup kaspar has a hammy and played very little in the louieville game. tj price...our best player tried to go in the louieville game but only lasted about 2 minutes. 'high ankle sprain' is what they're calling it.

i do expect us to play hard at home. it's one of the things ray has put a premium on. of course he wants to win every game but he does not want to lose at home....ever. we'll see starting tonight.

we havent won a game since the injuries started piling up.

i read your shooting numbers in another post and i certainly don't expect to see that saturday night. people love to shoot at diddle. it's a great gym for hoops and opponents always seem to light us up no matter what they're doing when they come in here.

Well, unless you guys are giving up uncontested layups all night, I doubt we shoot anywhere near 40%. Y'all will pack it in with a 2-3 and we can't hit a 10 foot jumper. Literally. No hyperbole here.

This will be very telling for our season. Do me a favor. Watch our bench during the game. Let me know what you think.

I wouldn't say you'd be "missing" it.

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      You got it dumbass. Seriously, let’s look at the two situations without inserting race since you felt the need. Mensah is a RS Freshmen that entered the portal stating his price. He didn’t get a degree from Tulane and probably cleared out some basics while there. Mensah may be a great student and may live up to his last name, but his academic success was never mentioned just that he was entering the portal and here is his price Morris was at North Texas as a student that had already earned his degree, the reason he missed spring practice, and a dollar amount was never mentioned regarding his transfer/entering the portal. You chose to read it as a racial observation, not me. You were looking for something that wasn’t there nor considered when I made my comment. I was just adding in to another poster’s comments. Stupid financial decisions are not the result of race but thanks for. Inferring that. Watch the “30 for 30” episode titled “Broke” and it will reveal that it happens to all races. Thanks for being who you are though. I would be shocked if you replied differently.

      Portal players leaving

      I think the fact that he's playing in the bowl game shows 1) he just wants to play and 2) it just shows more of the drive and commitment that's gotten him to where he his. I'm not gonna' fault him for leaving if they aren't rewarding him with a scholarship and especially if it looks like he isn't going to be in the main rotation next year. That feels like "thanks for bailing us out, now go sit down."

      Too many "player-whisperers" these days telling kids what they should do next in their career. I'd like to see more data about players that left a program for NIL/more playing time on what the return on their investment was. If they had a do-over would they make different decisions or was it really the right move? Do players that change schools every year really have a loyalty to any of them when their playing days are over?

      Stop Blaming Athletes and the NCAA for Ruining College Football

      There is a lot of collateral damage in this Portal and NIL era. Fan-withdrawal because of PTSD associated with transferring key players will cause less emotional investment, and eventually less $$ investment in the program they follow. NIL donation requests, ticket surcharges, and pleas from ADs has displaced asking for donations for brick and mortar projects. Player buy-in to a coaching staff and program has been replaced with NIL buy-out of the players.
