Bill Self says Kentucky is Most Talented Team

Kansas head basketball coach spoke with Jeff Goodman after their 10 point loss to Kentucky last night in the Champions Classic [URL=”http://www.cbssports.com/collegebasketball/story/16134831/kentucky-most-talented-team-in-nation-could-give-calipari-first-title”]and he spoke very highly of the young Wildcats[/URL].

[I]It’s the most talented team he’s had,” Kansas coach Bill Self said after Kentucky’s 75-65 victory against the Jayhawks. [/I]

[I]That’s a statement not to be taken lightly. [/I]

[I]In case you forgot (and Calipari will remind you), Kentucky had a record-setting five first-rounders a couple years ago — including three lottery picks: John Wall, DeMarcus Cousins and Patrick Patterson. [/I]

[I]But that team lost to a completely inferior West Virginia team (last I checked, Bob Huggins has Calipari’s number). [/I]

[I]This team has it all.[/I]

[I]Talent, toughness, length, character, shooting, rebounding, guys who defend. [/I]

[I]”I’m not sure what they don’t have,” Self admitted.[/I]
