Before the last game, Jon Hood was shooting 2 hours before the game. Oscar Combs said he came out and jokingly told Jon to save some of those for the game. Jon's response to Oscar was no, this is the only time he gets to shoot for this team.

Pretty telling comment from Jon. One that confirms what most of us have thought, and that is that Jon was likely going to leave after this season. Well, with the bench just getting shorter, this could be the breakout time for Jon. Maybe, just maybe, this is the the spark for both Jon and the Cats. He's healthy, and he will be needed to add more than the last two minutes of the first-half of each game! If Jon can play defense and hit a few outside shots, this could be a sweet deal.

I also expect that we are going to see quite a bit of zone from the Cats! You can protect Cauley-Stein and you can take more advantage of Polson.

Is this team dead? NO! Is this a must win? I want to say no, but they do need wins on the road in order to impress the committee!

As much as i like to see ky kids play it actually pains me to see some people get on the floor and get asked to do something.. Archie Goodwin gets top spot, but right behind is in Jon Hood. he has been a bust since he came in. Maybe if he didn't get hurt he might have developed into something, but watching him try to play now hurts my soul. he looks like he is scared to be there and extremely lacking in the confidence dept. He looks like he just doesnt belong and he also plays like it.
