When UK womens play at home, you will find some of Cal's guys watching.
The coaches are friends.
It also isn't everyday when you have both teams undefeated in conference play this late in the year.
But, Bria Goss, who led UK to a blowout against Ole Miss with 19 points, believes that her Cats play tougher defense than the guys, and that she doesn't believe the men could play as hard as they do on defense.
"Let me just say I know Marquis (Teague) personally," says Bria Goss. "I don't think he can do it."
Samarie Walker, who is really coming into her own for Matthew Mitchell wasn't as strong.
"I will just say it's not easy and obviously it was tough for me when I came in to get used to this but, I mean, I don't know if they could do it. I'm not taking anything away them but, I don't know if they can do it."
It was fun sharing those thoughts with Doron Lamb. The look he gave me when I told him was priceless.
"I don't pay them no mind," says Lamb. "We'd beat the girls team by like a hundred points if we played them in a game so, I'm not going to say nothing."
Defense or not?
"Yeah, don't matter."
Doron was on a roll. He steps up his talking game by saying the men could spot the ladies by 20 and still beat them by 100.
To Doron the prankster. His roommate is Marquis Teague.
"Sometime at the beginning of the season I used to, when he was trying to go to sleep I would wet him when he'd sleep, but I stopped doing it because he would get mad, so I understand how he feels so I stopped wetting him a little bit."
Part of him being a rookie?
"No, I do it to everybody. Everybody knows that they can't sleep in front of me because I will wet you if you go to sleep in front of me so. It's hard to take naps in front of me."
Doron admits that some of the Cats wouldn't want to room with him.
