'Congrats To Him On That Already' - Kerr Kriisa Is Once Again College Basketball's Biggest Asshole, Ready For 40-Minutes Of Shit Talking Cooper Flagg

I don't care if this ends up backfiring. I want Kerr Kriisa to say shit exactly like this before every big game because that's who Kerr Kriisa is. He did it at Arizona and say what you want about the guy, they at least won games. Sure, they didn't make a Final Four, they won games though. Kriisa has fully bought into Kentucky. He's bought into the backup role, he's bought into passing first (12:2 assist/turnover ration last game, nbd), he's bought into being an asshole. Every good team needs an asshole. 

I love that he threw out that Cooper Flagg is already the No. 1 pick. It's the perfect compliment that's somehow a jab. He's not afraid of Cooper Flagg, he's gotten into it with Luka Doncic before: 

Again, I know everyone will use this quote if Cooper Flagg goes and gets 30 and Duke wins. It's the easy thing to do. But Kerr Kriisa will fight anyone and everyone and that's what is needed. Can't have guys afraid of Cooper Flagg in November. Can't have guys scared of Duke early on, not saying things like well what do you want us to do. It's just refreshing to see Kentucky 1) play basketball that actually looks like basketball in 2024 and 2) have guys who aren't afraid to stir shit up. We know Pope won't say anything but nice stuff and basketball nerd talk. Kriisa needs to be this guy, it's why he's here. 

Beat Duke.
