So excited for the rematch with UConn. A trip to the Final Four would be HUGE in terms of solidifying Mitchell's status as the present AND future of UK Hoops. What an awesome job he has done, and he's been so completely likable the whole time. Rare combination IMO.
GO BIG BLUE!

Not gonna happen this year. Cats are getting a whoopin on a major scale right now. Down 22 at the half, its unlikely they'll claw back into this one. Great season and something to build on going forward.

Refs screwed them royally and then when they FINALLY called a foul on UCONN, the game was too far gone. Great season indeed, but such a disappointing end.

Very good season and something to build on. They should continue to be good year in and year out with Mitchell at the helm. He seems to know how to bring out the best in the young ladies. With a couple great recruits I could certainly see them in the final four or beyond in the next couple years.

Mitchell's game is too narrow. Great to have a panic defense as good as the one he had this year, but that is not the only thing that is required to get a banner. Like Donavon in 2000 when he hired a defensive specialist for 2001, Mitchell needs to hire an offense coach who can teach shot accuracy and a pattern offense. On the defensive side of the ball, he must have a better half court defense. UConn went through our half court defense like we were a bunch of intramural kids. They scored whenever they wanted to.
Granted this staff and their teams have been the best that we have had in many a year, they still are not good enough to call themselves in the top 4 seeds. He cannot stay where he has this team, they must improve or they will go into decline.
