[HogCaller13]

Have they started yet?

Nope not yet. I think they start around 25th or 26th of this month. :razorback:

[Hawg Red]

I remember reading the 26th.

[azhog10]

I remember reading the 26th.

They def moved them up a week. I remember we started like Oct 5th or 15th. Now they are letting them start in to September.

"Starting Sunday, teams across the country could finally begin team skill instruction... For two hours a week, coaches can get the full team together for practice. Up until this point, they've only been allowed to do individual skill instruction in groups of four players. The practice hour allotment moves to the full 20 hours a week starting Sept. 27, several weeks before the traditional mid-October start..."

Anderson: "We're going to face some adversity. Just like with the arena (flooding). What do you do? We adjust. Good teams adjust."

Couple of the players  talked about how honored they felt to practice in Barnhill. I loved reading that.

[UNCLE BACK]

Barnhill is one of the top Arenas in College BBall history and most of the experts concur... Top meaning tough to play at/in...

Jerry Tipton is a Lexington basketball beat writer who has covered the SEC for thirty years. In response to a survey he said Barnhill provided the greatest home court advantage of any he had visited past or present.

He was only there once when the Hogs beat a 30-win, Final Four UK team.

the famous rant:

"If I can't practice, I can't practice. It is as simple as that. It ain't about that at all. It's easy to sum it up if you're just talking about practice. We're sitting here, and I'm supposed to be the franchise player, and we're talking about practice. I mean listen, we're sitting here talking about practice, not a game, not a game, not a game, but we're talking about practice. Not the game that I go out there and die for and play every game last it's my last but we're talking about practice man. How silly is that?

Now I know that I'm supposed to lead by example and all that but I'm not shoving that aside like it don't mean anything. I know it's important, I honestly do but we're talking about practice. We're talking about practice man. (laughter from the media crowd) We're talking about practice. We're talking about practice. We're not talking about the game. We're talking about practice. When you come to the arena, and you see me play, you've seen me play right, you've seen me give everything I've got, but we're talking about practice right now. (more laughter)

Reporter: "But it's an issue that your coach continues to raise?"

Iverson: "Hey I hear you, it's funny to me to, hey it's strange to me too but we're talking about practice man, we're not even talking about the game, when it actually matters, we're talking about practice."

Thanks for the updates JB.

with the floor being a blank canvas, put the slobbering Hog back instead of the boring but accurate Hog they replaced it with.

[SoonerSooie]

I always loved the Slobberin Hog!!
