At least they got to start...

I'm torn by this thought, but I can't shake the feeling we conceeded the tone by starting four undersized players and spotting FL 5 points. Senior Day is a day to always remember, but what will be more lasting to Sparks/Stockton/Moss/LeMaster- getting to start or getting blown out in the end?

I questioned the logic of putting four guys on the court under 6'3 to start the game. I guessed FL might get up 10-0 before Tubby could call TO. Well, they got half way there today. I questioned the logic of following tradition vs. doing everything possible to win this game. I guess beating UT was the only thing this team was concerned with down the stretch.

We didn't lose this game in the first couple of minutes. We didn't lose it at the half. But the way FL has run up and down our court and dunked in our face- I can't shake the feeling that we didn't give them our best shot at the tip and they had little to worry about from there on. Maybe if Prestonand Brandon had gotten some 3's to fall early the gamble would've worked in our favor. As it is we're getting run over on Senior Day and will be playing on the first day of SEC tourny for the first time since the division split. Pretty much sums up our season.

I think we went on to take the lead even after that 5-0 start. After all the talk that takes place on this board about the tradition at UK and you want to scrap what I consider to be a very classy tradition based on a 5-0 run. That did not set the tone. Morris' foul trouble and not being able to hit a shot(other than Crawford) set the tone.

I disagree. The first half was a wash. We struggled, but we were right there.

We lostthis game in the 2nd half...AGAIN.

Billy made the adjustments, had his team ready to take charge and Tubby never got off the bench. The Cats playedlike they were scared and that is unacceptable to me...but pretty much par for this tender team.

This team looked totally different in the 2nd half...no fire...no adjustments....no desire. I lay that on a the lack of motivation from the staff and the lack of heart on a few of our players. Another total meltdown.

I don't know what the problem is but they dominated the second half.
