I just wanted to congratulate you guys on your season. I know there is alot of hate between our programs but I was very impressed with all your team has had to go through this season and still to be one game short of a final four. My hats off to you.Good luck next season unless your playing UK lol

Thanks, medic.
It was still a very good season and I wanted that Final Four but I'm very proud of this team to make the Elite 8. Not many thought they'd make it this far. Great coaching job by Pitino.

Honestly after the Chris Jones incident ( Which I think is total B.S.) I thought it was season over for you guys. But after a shaky start your team started to gell and I for one was very impressed by that and was really rooting for you guys to go all the way. Now of course I would have not rooted for you against my Cats lol but every season I always root for you guys until you play us. I know many on both sides of our rivalry do not feel the same to say the least lol but I do . I Wish Blachshear would have drove the lane on that play before end of regulation instead of that 3 that was took I really believed he would have made it or at least got fouled but then again you got a Hall of fame coach who knows alot more about the game than I do .
I also want to offer congrats. I was very impressed with Montrezl, Rozier, Blackshear, and the freshman Snider stepping it up at the end of the season. Tough game against Michigan State, but I thought y'all had it.
I think even without Montrezl, Blackshear, and possibly Rozier next year, U of L can make another run, but it will depend on the development of the young frontcourt. Johnson and Onuaku have solid size, so if they develop well and work hard over the summer and if Anas adds muscle, look out. Mangok can be a defensive specialist, maybe Matz can crack rotation more too, at least with his size. Guard play should be fine, if Gill and Aaron step up and/or freshmen are solid and ready to play out of the gate.
Best of luck next season.
