This year KY did well w what he was dealt, but we need to build differently

SinkingQuffa

12:03am

So surprising that he started knell all year. Cracks me up how people have been so down on knell for years.

Hammurabi

12:15am

We didn't have a true 4, so that's where we hid Knell as a shooter on D.

SinkingQuffa

12:20am

Game has changed. In 5 out, shooters are a premium. We will see what KY comes up with next.

Hammurabi

12:37am

They need to guard better than Knell, though. Richie's the sorta shooter KY's

He did look a bit tired for a stretch and then got it back together.

How Tanner Toolson hasn’t attempted every shot for the last 10 minutes of game time is basketball malpractice

The 435 All-American

Sometimes coaches make boneheaded decisions. Like when coach Dale wanted Purl to take the last shot instead of Chitwood.
