Project 2025

Kentucky basketball is off to a good start in recruiting for the 2025 class. Center Malachi Moreno was the first to commit. Then guard Jasper Johnson joined him Could point guard Acaden Lewis be next?

Lewis is a 6'2", 170 lb guard out of Washington D.C. He is ranked as the number 32 overall player in the 2025 class, and is rated four stars. They have him as the number four player at his position

College basketball is right around the corner and Kentucky fans are fired up for the Mark Pope era to get started. Coach Pope brought with him from BYU one of the most exciting offenses in college basketball, and one of the most important aspects of this offense is shooting the three-ball.

2024 schedule Warm-up

Tip off Night before Presidential election. Cheapest seats are $163 same seats sat in 2 yrs. ago for $65. $5 for bottle of water...... probably $10 now :banghead:

SEC plus and ESPN U that okay....

23 1/2/152

Wildcats will get ready for DUKE Tuesday against the Bucknell Bison. Today @ Rupp

Bison shot 52.6% from three (10-19) Bucknell had 16 turnovers in their 1st game.

ESPN doesn't seem to think Bucknell will put up much of a fight…. Me either

UK 90's or another 100 Bison's 50's...

Bucknell needs to shoot more than 19 3's cause UK will probably do that in 1st half

Kenpom Projection: W, 81-62

While Kentucky fans have a lot of confidence heading into this game ESPN does not share that same confidence in the Wildcats. ESPN gives Kentucky a 29.3% chance to take down Duke in the State Farm Champions Classic on Tuesday.

About 6 hrs. for both...

This game gives Kentucky a great opportunity to prove that they are going to have a special season.

Kentucky is a 6.5-point underdog against Duke, according to FanDuel. This early line does not include a total. You’ll have to wait until Monday to get in on that action.

Scheyer’s Duke teams have an emphasis on defense and rebounding and this match-up has 2 former players that played ball with each team they’re now coaching. This should be a great game.. Blue Devils vs. Big Blue

Under 160 gets my vote…. We’ll C….

Calipari want Kentucky — come on, man, 15 years, I gave my heart and soul (to the program)," Calipari said. "I want them to do well. ... He's a good man, terrific basketball coach. They hired the right guy, they really did."

I saw Oct 25 didn’t copy/paste link but my guess is was preseason… Your’s look like his prediction today….

UK has a bench don’t know how deep Duke is? Think Duke has height advantage maybe. I see Vegas Team total for UK at 77 with their average in the 90’s. Final thought UK had 12 team fouls last game…. Impressed

Good Luck
