View from Section 137: Can Darius Repeat?

Darius Miller is coming off his best game of the season at Columbia. Darius went up strong when he was in the paint and at least for one game quit falling away from the basket.

The big question is can Darius have a repeat performance vs. a team that has already beaten the Cats once in Athens 77-70.

Darius had only 7 points 4 rebounds in 32 minutes while fouling out in the first meeting between two teams that are tied for second in the SEC East.

I think Darius will have to play similar to as he did at South Carolina(18pts on 8-12 shooting) for the Cats to pick up a must win game at Rupp Arena.

Lets look at some twitter news:

• Derrick Locke – Kentucky: Locke went largely unnoticed outside of Kentucky, but the 5'8” back rushed his way into the top 10 runners in Kentucky history. Locke has tremendous speed and good enough hands to become a third down specialist with the right team. (Source)
• Eamon Brennan from ESPN.com thinks it is a 3 horse race for the Player of the Year, but he thinks there are several other players that deserve a hat tip. Terrence Jones is one of them.
  Terrence Jones, Kentucky: If you’re surprised by this pick, you probably haven’t been paying much attention. Or perhaps you’re paying too much. If it’s the latter, you probably saw John Calipari’s recent tirade at his talented freshman forward and thought, “Man, Jones must not be playing well, huh?” Quite the contrary: Jones is one of the most well-rounded and efficient players in the country, a player whose unique scoring talent is eclipsed only by his defense and rebounding.

• Lamar Dawson is on his official visit to Tennessee this weekend. Michael Fluellen and Kentucky recruit Jerelle Moore is on an offical to Central Florida.
• PaulBiancardi is reporting that IMG SF DeAndre Daniels and his dad will be at the Kansas game tomorrow, which happens to be where the ESPN Gameday crew is.
• Rivals.com's Jerry Meyer: "I'd put Anthony Davis somewhere between Kevin Durant and Anthony Randolph"

I am looking forward to the game tomorrow on ESPN. I will be in Rupp and on the Nation of Blue live chat. I heard Ashley Judd is going to be there. I hope she sits next to a coal operator.
