Lebron supports Hillary = Lebron okay with that.
Lebron calling Trump supporters idiots = Lebron okay with that.
Lebron asked about Hong Kong people fighting for freedom = Lebron doesn't comment on political things.
In other words - STFU Lebron.

people can read what they want into it
but prior to Nike and Adidas going full bore in sending kids to schools, UK was killing it in recruiting
post Nike and Adidas getting busted for payouts, UK is again, killing it in recruiting. Meanwhile Kansas, Louisville , Arizona and a handful of schools who decided they wanted to be in the one and done game will be under the microscope for the next few years.
Duke would be there too, if they weren't considered untouchable by the NCAA

This should probably be on the politics thread, but it is KSR and McConnell does say he supports both Louisville and Kentucky...

Yeah. I noticed that Billy Clyde and Tubby were killing it pre-Cal...

The best player in college basketball history at every jersey number
If I was a betting man, I'd put a little something on UK vs. Michigan St. next week. I would guess at worst it will be a pick em, but UK may be getting a couple of points. After the national ass-raping they got at the hands of the hated Blue Devils in last year's opener, I'd be willing to risk a small amount that at the very least they're going to come out pretty fired up to avoid another such embarrassment. Man, that was brutal...

Watching UK play Kentucky State at the moment on SEC Network....not one bit impressed with this team. Will be surprised if they beat Sparty or even if they make the Sweet 16 in March.

UNC looked alright against an outmatched local opponent. Cole Anthony is the real deal. Our freshman post man, Bacot, could also be a stud, but hard to say just from beating up on an inferior opponent, but he certainly passes the look test. Garrison Brooks will be a team leader and hopefully have a Brice Johnson type of season. The surprise is going to be Leaky Black, he's obviously gained some weight and looks very comfortable. He's a legit 6'8" and can play 4 positions, could easily play point guard at the next level. We should be alright this year...

Considering what UK did last year against Dook, I'm saying Sparty by 9. Izzo is 5 times the bench coach that Calipari is. The offense is a liability on this squad but the defense is pretty decent.
The heels should be competitive this season.... Wouldn't surprise me to see them in the Final Four.
