Cats under the radar

In his final season at Texas A&M,the Aggies were a balanced team,ranking in the top ten in both offense and defense(ken pom 6th offense and 10th defense effeciency).As of now,UK is not ranked that high,but look at these numbers nationally-

Offense

3rd FT % 5th FG % 8th Points per game 10th assists

Defense

3rd Blocked shots 4th defensive rebounds 11th FG %

With NBA prospects Meeks and Patterson,would you think a team with these numbers would be unranked?Also,if the NCAA tourney was entirely based on the RPI(which it is not) UK would not get in,they currently rank 68.This team has Darkhorse written all over it.

1st Tournament win in 12 years

Just listened to the post game radio show,made the comment that this is the first time in TWELVE years that UK has won a preseason tournament,not since the Great Alaska Shoot-out in 1996.I know we had a long Final Four drought,but was unaware of this stat.This was a great win tonight,and as cat fans we should expect to win these games,and not make excuses for losing.Good to get the monkey off our back since the Clinton adminstration.GO CATS!

I am looking forward to how well the team is meshing,and like everyone else will be watching the PG spot(err,Lead Guard).Matt Jones had a very encouraging view of the practice,and hope to see that intensity tonite.Enjoy!
