Is it not?

You don't think, as it sits, this is his worst team since he has been at UK?

"Most unproven" would have been a better description. Calling them anything else at this point is premature. For all we know, they could end up being the most accomplished of all his teams. I think your bias/hatred for Cal and UK cloud your judgement about the two occasionally.

The only reason I didn't include Missouri is because I'm not sure whether or not they will play UK at Rupp. Should they though, they are another team that could challenge UK for the conference and potentially defeat UK at Rupp. UT has too many holes, particularly at the guard spots for me to blindly predict them to challenge even Cal's most unproven team for the conference or a win at Rupp. Until we find someone that can create their own shot and take the ball to the hole from the perimeter, we will be impossible to predict.

UF lost a lottery pick in Beal and a 3 year starter at PG, finished the regular season by losing 3 straight, and 5 of their last 8, went a combined 2-6 VS UK, UT, Vandy and Bama, has gone 1-8 vs Kentucky since Calipari has been there, and they have solid but not superstars coming in as frosh, plays suspect defense and basically lives and dies by the 3 pt shot. But you feel ok thinking they win at Rupp but you cannot pick UT because they have too many holes to fill? OK.

Sure they could disprove my statement, but all I meant was, at this point this appears to be his worst team. I probably should've used the phrase most unproven, but he'll every team is unproven. This years UK team was expected to have a great season and go all the way.

IMO that's nowhere near what my expectations would be for next years team. Obviously recruiting is still goin and thy could change, but right now I just don't see them being THAT good. Jmo

I didn't realize I picked Florida to win at Rupp, hands down.

I may have misread your reference to Florida being the only team UK should fear in the SEC when you were talking about the Cats losing at home. My bad if I misinterpreted that into thinking it was you saying Florida could win at Rupp

My point is UT may have holes, but UF has as many or more. If you think UF has a chance at Rupp then UT has one too.
