I don't know if any of you besides Jared has watched the exhibition UK games, but my god are we scary already. Towns is an absolute freak, booker has a hell of a stroke and is also an athletic freak, and Ullis is a blast to watch at 5'9 (closer to 5'7).
Dakari is like a different player, lee really looks like Anthony davis pt2, both Harrisons are bigger and better shooters, poythress seems to be playing with confidence, and even Derek Willis has put on some noticeable muscle and plays calm, smart ball and has great court vision. Willie and lyles are out with minor injuries.
Holy Hell, this team seriously has the potential to be cal's best team. There don't appear to be any head cases/prima donnas on this team either but it's too early to really know. I love football season and I'll go to every UK football game I can and watch them all, but part of me wishes it was basketball season already. Cannot fucking wait. There will be 40-0 nonsense again because our fanbase has more than it's share of stupid people but whatever. I know we will lose a few games at least because that's just how it goes, but I also think we have the potential to be completely dominant team.
Duke and UK both have 9 McDonald's AA's on their rosters, the big 12 has 7 as a conference
