I have not. I don't follow hoops as closely as most of you guys. I just figured with Tyler, Varnado,Patterson, Mitchell in the league, he would've gone with more experience...

He's the most talented player in the conference.

No doubt..

Hey Hat, I got one question.. Other than the pg position, don't we pretty much have the same type of athletic ability as UK? I mean, at what other position is UK THAT much more athletic than UT to predict that they are for sure going to win the east?

Cousins, Orton, Patterson, and Stevenson are much more collectively athletic along the baseline than Chism, Williams, and Hall. To match them athletically, Tennessee has to play Smith or Price at the 4, putting them at a huge strength disadvantage.

Kentucky is more talented, but also very young.

I see what you're saying about the strength advantage, but is Cousins and Patterson that much more athletic than Chism and Hall?.. Orton prob has the advantage on Williams athletically, but enough to where it is noticeable?.. I'm sure Smith and Prince can match Stevenson's strength and both have the athletic advantage

Perry Stevenson is a much better leaper than Tyler Smith. Cousins' athleticism dwarfs Wayne's.
