The homers sure hate to see the reality of their sacred cows. I would have liked to see kmart healthy in his senior year. Did he and Huggins have the heart to win it all? We will never know, but in some ways it was better that he got hurt because what would a early exit do to the program with a healthy team consisting of 2 top fives and a future all-american ( Logan). I would have loved seeing a UCONN, MSU, Florida matchup.

 

I liked Huggins, but he is gone folks. UC is still here. let's rally around the team, and for those who only followed the coach-- Well get a ladder, take down a jersey and go deliver it to Denver  -- cause he is refusing to come back here to play a game.

Mike, I said Kmart was decent. he is a solid second fiddle on his teams. What I also said that #1 overall picks have lofty expectations. Kmart never fulfilled those in jersey and had the door opened for him. Maybe they didn't like his temper. Maybe jefferson delivered more on his expectations. Anyways, I wish kenyon good luck in Denver. He and Nick were always my favorite NBA players. It will be hard to just consider him neutral.

His jersey issue aside, Kenyon is a solid nba power forward. Comparing him to Fortson is silly. Danny can not make the starting lineup on any team he has played for. That's not a slam on Danny its just a fact. Kenyon might not be a hall of fame pro or a super star that the league bases it advertising on but teams thought enough of him to pay him the top level salary. He consistently ranks in the top 10 in his position. He was the second best player on a team that went to the finals twice. He might not be the second coming of Michael Jordan but few are. Based on the economics of the nba he was a steal for the Nets.
