Kentucky guard Andrew Harrison seemed to mumble an obscenity and a racial slur as a question about Wisconsin's Frank Kaminsky was being asked during a postgame news conference at the Final Four.

Harrison and the Wildcats were upset 71-64 by the Badgers on Saturday night.

This is a rematch from earlier in the season. Duke won in Madison. Tough to beat the same team twice, particularly the way Wisconsin is playing defending the perimeter and rebounding the ball. Look for the Big Ten to sweep the College Football Playoffs and the College Basketball playoffs.

Kaminsky gave Kaminsky a career boost. He’s the player of the year and the MVP of the tourney.

Go UConn... their coach is a class act,

Their governor, not so much.

Understood.

But I’m sure there are lots of people who never heard of him before — and now Kaminsky is a household word.

Yeah,I think it’s petty to pick on any of the KY players for something like this right now. Maybe he’ll learn, but still that was a hard loss, and they get interviewed so soon after the game when their emotions are raw.

Well on the bright side, finally some REAL hate in Indiana as opposed to the leftist/media manufactured kind.

Is he going to be made to apologize, drummed out of school and be made to wear a big ‘R’ for life?

Oh that’s right, of course not, he has black privilege...

I am highly offended by this and have a need to riot, loot and set others property on fire to make my demands for equality known.

Was Harrison a household name? No.

Isn’t this the KY thug who launched the airball in the last seconds? I see he has about as much class as his coach, Calipari. So happy they lost, and now bitterly heap racist insults on the players that schooled ‘em.

And some Kentucky players like Willie Caulie-Stein refused to shake hands with the Wisconsin players after the game.

That leather ball and those steel rims don’t care what color your skin is.

There are a couple of (black) Farrakhan acolytes on local public access TV, and they often talk about sports, especially basketball. They are convinced that "Satan" controls the sports world in order to minimize the success of black athletes.

They were outraged when Gonzaga's Wiltjer made the cover of SI, and no doubt will be outraged by the naming of Kaminski as player of the year. They will be even more outraged by Kentucky's loss to a Wisconsin team with four white starters. I expect to hear a lot about "Satan" on their show next week.

“Mike Krzyzewski will out-coach Bo Ryan and Duke will defeat Wisconsin handily. Wisconsin had a tough time with UNC. Blue Devils win by 10.”

Did you need to be talked down off a ledge last night? :)

How does that differ from what happened at Oklahoma? I think that at least one week national outrage of whining, hand wringing, and blubbering is in order.

“Go UConn... their coach is a class act, so is the men’s coach...Kevin Ollie.”

Kevin Ollie has chosen to boycott the Final Four this year because it’s being played in Indiana, home of the religious freedom restoration act. Before this I was a Kevin Ollie fan, too.
