Marshall Henderson wants to show Kentucky “the real national champ”

by @ 10:30 am. Filed under Blue Blooded Opinions

When Marshall Henderson signed with Ole Miss back in April, he already had the Kentucky Wildcats on his mind. Henderson, fresh off his JUCO national championship with South Plains College in Texas, said he will show Kentucky who the real national champ is.

“I’m just glad I can play Kentucky next year and be like ‘Y’all think y’all were the national champions, I’ll show you the real national champ.”

He should be thanking God that Michael Kidd-Gilchrist won’t be walking through that door tonight.

    Something like this should light a fire under these guys, hell it makes me want to go kick his ass!

  2. LAME Says:

    You’ve got to be kidding me. Is this guy for real.
    MKG would whip the floor with him.

    This punk needs someone to really shut his a@# up. Either us or someone else.

    Try that crap in the NBA my friend. See what Kobe or Lebron says about your punk azz

  3. Tow Says:

    Punk ass!

  4. Russ Says:

    Marshall runs his mouth because he wants attention. I think the best thing that we can do as Kentucky Fans is just ignore him.

  5. MKG Says:

    I thinks tonight can go one of two ways. One we go in and shut down henderson and give him a taste of his own medicine or two we go in and he backs up everything he says and kills us. I think we have a real shot at winning tonight if we feed the ball down low to Noel and hit an open wiltjer on the wings. We have a nice 1-2 punch with these two guys and i think its time we start utilizing their full potential.

  6. Big Mike In The Wood Says:

    The more I hear about this kid the more I hate him. He’s like GoldDust, He’s the ultimate heel!

  7. Marshall's double-wide Says:

    why hasnt anyone mentioned that he has been arrested for buying a lot of weed with a lot of counterfit money, TWICE! Lets hope his game is as fake as his money, or as ugly as the women he licks on the face. GO BG BLUE!

  8. MCaron Says:

    I already hope this kid turns an ankle during warmups so we don’t have to witness the spectacle of his idiocracy.

  9. Musehobo Says:

    He is bat shit crazy.

  10. Blah Says:

    How embarrassing if we can’t shut this guy down

  11. Blue Says:

    5…You hit the nail on the head. Those are my thoughts exactly. Either all this talk lights a fire under our guys, we go in more determined and prepared than we have all season, shut him down and play a great game…Or he comes out, backs up everything, continues to talk trash, and puts up 30 on us. I just hope it’s the former.

  12. Krazy Kat Says:

    #10 you can’t really shut down a volume shooter, you can only hope to contain him. He’ll jack it up from anywhere and he’ll likely make a few.

  13. wildcatfan4ever Says:

    The guys need to go in there tonight with a chip on their shoulders and play hard, tough, and smart for 40 minutes and shut Henderson’s mouth up! I would love for our CATS to cram every ball Henderson throws up down his throat! We are and always will be the “Real” National Champs!! GO CATS!!!

  14. Trailer Park Trash Says:

    You gotta give the boy credit. He apparently was able to get out of the trailer park and into a college.

  15. BigBlueAces Says:

    12…Correct, and that’s also why limiting their second chance buckets is key. Rebounding will be huge tonight. This crazy dude will be jacking them up from everywhere and crazy rebounds will be bounding all over the place–we need to grab them and turn them into transition buckets.

  16. IndyAlan Says:

    I liked the kid and his antics until I just heard the trashy little douche open his mouth up about the real national champs. I hope someone punches him in his eye, congrats on being a JUCO reject that got a great chance just to be able to grace the same floor as the Wildcats. Hope we wipe his home floor with him, and then Calipari and the whole team run over popping our jerseys at their student section. #bittersweet

  17. Jmeeks23 Says:

    #5 I could not agree with you more. Henderson is a sickness and we need to go and destroy him tonight. Archie Goodwin has to be the one to step up on defense tonight. Aside from Polson and maybe Harrow he is the only one thats really gonna be able to contain him tonight. As long as we limit turnovers, step up on D, and give Noel and Wiltjer the ball then we will be coming home with a big W tonight.

  18. Jezz Says:

    I know it sucks but we’re totally losing to that guy.

  19. MustangCat Says:

    Leave us wondering at least a little Marshall! Don’t remove all doubt! For your own sake kid, make us at least wonder……

  20. GoBigBlue Says:

    So, assuming he’s correct, and we aren’t the “real national champs”, who is? Ole Miss? They were 20-14 last year. Is he saying that this years Ole Miss team is going to be better than last year’s Kentucky team? I don’t see it.

  21. Sensei Says:

    Sweep the leg. Do you have a problem with that?? No mercy.

  22. huntin chickens Says:

    bout to be huntin some marshal henderson, GO CATS!!!!!!!! 8 is great!

  23. GoBigBlue Says:

    Losing tonight won’t upset me. Giving that guy any room to breath on offense is what will upset me. He should not have a single wide open shot tonight. When they have a main force on offense, you have to focus there first, and make everyone else beat you. He makes what he makes at that point. And he could very well have an Elston Turner style game where it doesn’t matter if he’s guarded or not. But those are very rare.

  24. NNoel3 Says:

    #18 How are you going to call yourself a kentucky fan and not even have enought faith in our boys to pull out a tough road win tonight. Cal has shown us time and time again that late January to Early February our boys really start to “get it”. Have a little faith and just support them.

  25. Marshall Henderson Says:

    yeah chumpz, last year JUCO > NCAA Div 1, ya heard!

  26. bdown Says:

    Unfortunately MKG will not be walking through that door so we need to stop saying how last year’s team would shut this kid down. Let’s hope goodwin, noel, and everyone see this video and use it as motivation.

  27. YoFlatTopFeller Says:

    24 I didn’t see where he called himself (assuming it’s a guy) a KY fan. Here’s a tip: don’t assume a poster is a fan…trolls are always on the prowl.

  28. BPsycho Says:

    #8 Naw naw we need him in the game, whether he kills us or we kill him. After the Texas A&M debacle…

  29. billybob Says:

    He’s not even good. Shoots 38% percent from the floor. If we can’t stop him…

  30. ChiBlue Says:

    Really worried about tonight. It’s not that I don’t have faith in Cal or the Cats but this Henderson guy has been waiting his whole life for a game like this, if you think he was crazy in other games wait until tonight. He has the opportunity to truly embarrass UK tonight on ESPN if they don’t come out ready for this kid. I’m going to bet 3 tech’s tonight. Going to be a heated contest.

  31. me Says:

    I can’t wait for this game to be over so we can not hear about this Dbag until the next time he gets arrested.

  32. Rob Says:

    Just being a realist here but our weakest link is perimeter defense. Two weeks ago a shooting guard put up 40 against us. Wish Cal would try Jon Hood on him to give him some length to shoot over or make him drive into taller players. Plus with Hood you can spare the 5 fouls to be physical against him. If hes gonna get 18, he dang sure is going to earn it.

  33. butteredup Says:

    It would be a shame if he were to lose a couple of teeth due to an elbow tonight.
    This could be just the ticket the boys in blue need for some motivation.
    If that thug mouth don’t do it, then our boys are as far as they’ll get.
    Shut the thug (and his mouth)
    down. Get fired up guys!

  34. DB11 Says:

    Anthony Davis says shut up

  35. Reality Check Says:

    Too bad that Nerlens won’t be guarding him tonight. As much as Henderson chucks up shots, Nerlens Noel would have 35 blocked shots in one game. He might actually get tired of jumping.

  36. Reality Check Says:

    Maybe he will get to block a shot back into his mouth and shut his azz up.

  37. 3cats Says:

    SEC would have sat him down for a game if he played at UK for the crap he did to the Auburn fans. I think it was funny, but you know it’s true. Must win game!

  38. asef Says:

    If this doesn’t motivate our team, they don’t have any motivation in them at all!

  39. hunter1249 Says:

    Seriously this kid is a moron. He can ball but, a kid from from Ole Miss basketball can’t even mutter a word National Champ as it relates to basketball. Ever. Ever. I hope he gets teabagged.

  40. UKBlue1! Says:

    I like this guy. The SEC needs a character. Hopefully he will get our players blood boiling. Nothing else has worked.

  41. Please Says:

    I wish that AD and MKG saw this video

  42. Please Says:

    Speaking of Marshall, why didnt he sign with KY?

  43. RealCatsFan Says:

    Definition of a douchebag – one who cries out for attention no matter what the cost – “look at me, look at me!”

  44. RealCatsFan Says:

    The kid was busted for felony drug possession in Texas. Ole Miss’ coach was talking about him dancing in the aisles on the plane ride home at 2 AM. Cocaine gives you a lot of energy…

  45. Amaze Pants Says:

    You heard some dude in the room say “….ooooookaaaay” — even Ole Miss fans know he’s full of sh!t.

    I hope Wiltjer sinks free throws to ice the game, goes to pop his jersey at the students section… but says “nah” and walks away.

  46. Blue Says:

    I still can’t stand the kid, and hope we blow Ole Miss’ doors off tonight…But, his comments here are OBVIOUSLY in a joking matter. I mean, even his coach (or I’m assuming) is laughing about the absurdity of the comment. We all tend to get too riled up (crazy, I know) about the smallest thing. He’s a trash talker and is going to run his mouth, hopefully only fueling a fire under our guys, tonight…But this? This is just a joke in my opinion

  47. Hood is nt the answer Says:

    Why are there actually people that think Hood can be the difference maker?

  48. Sensei Says:

    C’mon UK. Sweep the kid’s leg. End his career tonight. (fingers crossed)

  49. NotSatire Says:

    The competition has been doing this since Ray Mears from UT. Then Dale Brown. I’d like to see 5 MKG’s or Liggins’s on the floor tonight against the Running (your mouth) Rebels.

  50. Hang Ten!!!!!!! Says:

    omg give em’ shut up juice

  51. Hang Ten!!!!!!! Says:

    now i’m pissed, spanks guys

  52. Dusten Says:

    Ole miss lost to Middle Tennessee and Indiana State earlier this season. I know they’ve only lost two games but their two losses are worse than any of our individual losses. They’ve only beaten one ranked team in Missouri who is a really inconsistent team. We’ve hung in there with highly ranked teams like Duke and Louisville and we tend to play to the competition of our opponents. I think we have a strong chance tonight as long as Archie goes in looking for Henderson’s throat.

  53. Flippy23 Says:

    What a pompous little toad, sadly we do not have anyone capable of shoving those words up his ass (think MKG, Eric Bledsoe, Liggins)…..I have not been impressed with this UK team’s swagger, toughness, and resolve. Dammit, when you have “Kentucky” on the front of your jersey you take lip from NO ONE…..in particular when you are defending national champions…..if this little worm actually punks us on national TV we deserve to be ridiculed……

  54. Hang Ten!!!!!!! Says:

    SOmething is really wrong if we dont beat them by 10+…at no time are their 5 players better than our 5…Archie neeeds to shut that one f’ up…. GoCATS

  55. bbmike Says:

    where is liggins when you really need him?!?! I’d love him to be in henderson’s ear all night

  56. Lighten Up Francis Says:

    I actually think it was pretty funny. Everybody laughed, including him.

  57. Hang Ten!!!!!!! Says:

    Yea, Liggins would guide Him like a canoe

  58. Winstonbennettaintwalkinthruthedoor Says:

    #19—-we don’t have anyone with the balls to stop this dude. #whereiswinstonbennettwhenyouneedhim

  59. jamu70 Says:

    Can you say “Douche Bag”?

  60. Demarcus Cousin's Forearm says... Says:

    just let me go after a loose ball with this dude, please!

  61. Hang Ten!!!!!!! Says:

    This Marshall kid is not basketball material. he’s completely clueless with no skills set, including improper attitude and behavior. And dont tell me we have no one on this team capable of f’n up some punk kid. You, for one couldn’t stop him so be quiet

  62. string music Says:

    get under his skin and he loses it…check out the video starting at the 1:10 mark

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rc2aaGg4wG8

  63. Ryan Harrows Flu Bug Says:

    @-60. Love it!

  64. Jacob Adam Brooks Says:

    Love him or hate him his national champ comment is one if the dumbest things ever said

  65. mycats Says:

    This is a “Point Blank…Period” moment! I think Cal will use this to his advantage when firing up the boys tonight!

  66. Jacob Adam Brooks Says:

    54) its a team game tho and 5 stars do not automatically make a better team. Ole miss has played better and more consistent than kentucky has… I’d be thrilled with a 1 point win

  67. Tampa Satchel Says:

    Settle down all you Francises! Why all the hate for the guy? I respect a guy who can talk a little good natured smack AND backs it up while playing on a team where he is clearly the guy.

    If you watch him, he’s not mean or dirty, he’s passionate and having as much fun as the fans are. We know who there best is and he doesn’t try to slip under the radar, so if we can’t beat them by stopping him, then shame on us.

    Any hate directed towards him is more than likely a deflection of anger towards our own team that has not lived up to our expectations.

  68. Joe Says:

    He was just joking around. Watch the whole video on deadspin and it’s obvious.

  69. Jacob Adam Brooks Says:

    No hate but it was still a dumb statement

  70. Assman Says:

    It looks like Ole Miss has gone to the bottom of the barrel to win basketball games. I can see how he and Billy G. would have been a good match. Don’t get uptight if this guy gets his points, just stop the others. I hope he’s around next year when he comes to Rupp. I thought Ole Miss was a classier university than this.

  71. Hang Ten!!!!!!! Says:

    @54-I love the 5*’s. Cal crushes it w/ diamonds and, so your insinuating Ole Miss is better numerically? Ok… We are no closer to March today than we are now….. 10 pt. WIN

  72. Biff Says:

    I hope he gets hit by a bus. Or a train.

  73. Flippy23 Says:

    67…..go to your yoga class, eat your tofu, and change that tampon…….

  74. Han Says:

    It would be nice if various players and fans out there would realize we did in fact win the title last year, because we had the best team, but most of that team is gone, so beating us this year does not make you better than last year’s UK team. It’s not that complicated.

  75. Dwoos Says:

    The kid was joking. I like the kids fire. Wish he was a wildcat

  76. Hang Ten!!!!!!! Says:

    @66 Become part of the team. Visualize yourself as one of the “guys.” Take the bumps, bad passes, losses, turnovers into retrospect and realize Kentucky is better than Ole Miss

  77. UKFANNUMBER1 Says:

    Ok I could care less about the one hit wonder who will never play in the NBA, win a NCAA championship, win a sec tournament championship, of even be remembered in a few short years. But when you start running off at the mouth about showing UK WHO THE REAL CHAMP IS IS STUPID.He will NEVER EVER win a championship, I think he’s mad because deep down inside he wishes he was a WILDCAT. Keep dreaming. He needs to go over after UK wins the game and ask Kyle or Jared what its like to play for a championship, and ask how awsome is it to be a wildcat walking around like a rock star and living the high life. Maybe if he ask very nice he could get a look at Kyle or Jareds ring.GO BIG BLUE.

  78. Big Blue Coming at You Says:

    Dude is just a punk. There’s a difference between passion, heart, being emotional and then being a straight up punk. Henderson is a punk. He wants to run his mouth instead of just letting his play do the talking. That’s a punk.

  79. Tampa Satchel Says:

    78-The difference between passionate and a punk is often just the color of the jersey. If he was wearing blue the only people complaining would be the 60+ crowd.

  80. Class Says:

    Yeah, this kid is arrogant as hell. God, I hope we have a break out game tonight. I want this kid to know what its really like to play a Kentucky team. Needs to know when to keep his big mouth shut.

  81. I'll Says:

    5. You mean to say either we’ll win or we’ll lose? No shit!

  82. honesty Says:

    well once they get a load of our archie goodwin slashing with our head down offense…it should shut up everyone at ole miss tonight

  83. Kige Ramsey Says:

    Can show thread Kige Ramsey get a hat tip? I posted this on the show thread at 10:01 alerting Matt and Drew to Henderson’s comments.

    Show some love to the man behind YouTube sports.

  84. Chicago Chris Says:

    What does this even mean? Ole Miss is the real 2012 National Champ? Even though he wasn’t there? Or that they’re the real 2013 champs which invalidates the 2012 championship? Wow, this guy is a dumba**.

  85. Chicago Chris Says:

    No, I’d be embarrassed if this guy was wearing blue, too.

  86. ukcatfan36 Says:

    Although it’s kind of embarrasing to be an underdog to Ole Miss in basketball, I have to agree with #40–Harrison is kind of refreshing–I know he tends to go overboard on occasion but what the heck? Our team def. needs some fire–we need MKG spirit tonight!!!!

  87. Donking Says:

    Can we sacrifice a Jon Hood in the starting line up and he can go out there, lay henderson down with a haymaker and leave it at that?
