Never cared much for "sweaty Bruce," but I can't disagree with anything he said in that article.

Coach Pearl lost me with ...."Ryan Harrow is not the right fit for this team. He was not highly rated out of high school ...."
Yes he was. He was considered the biggest snub for not making the McD AA game. But he made the Jordan AA. He was a 5 star recruit.
Borrow money from a pessimist -- they don't expect it back.

Have to admit, Bruce got it right. Plus if they can bring it all together and win the SEC Tournament they could do some damage in the Big Dance

I agree with some of his points but he is way off on Harrow not being highly rated out of HS and that "realistically UK should finish 2-4"?
Stoopified!

The 2-4 thing isn't totally off base. UK will be an underdog in three of its final five games. And Georgia has played better basketball. I'm guessing they'll finish 3-3 over the last 6 games.
