I will actually disagree with both of you. While UK fans always have high hopes for the basketball team, I think the expectations will be tempered somewhat this year. The last couple of years have been fairly disappointing, and I think most fans realize that the team Billy Clyde inherited is not one that should be expected to win an SEC championship or go to the Final Four. UK will have only 2 scholarship players above sophomore level this year, and those two remaining members of the vaunted recruiting class of 2004 (Crawford and Bradley) have underachieved so far in their UK careers.

I think the fans are so giddy about the high-level recruits that Gillespie has landed, that he will likely have one season, maybe two, as a 'honeymoon ' period. After that, well, we had better be playing on the last weekend of the season!

I agree. I would even say that with each year we can expect that next step without question. Upcoming year sweet sixteen, next year elite eight, next year final four and championship contender. I think that that would be totally resonable. However, I think that this team will grow alot as this season goes on and possibly make it to the elite eight which would not be that big of a surprise if you ask me.
