Cal put him in a no win situation. He wasn’t good enough or mature enough to be our PG this year.

Gonzaga wants good players.Watch he will transfer to UCLA or Gonzaga.
Well technically he was a one and done.Hopefully Cal stops recruiting west coast kids, unless they’re a for sure one and done.
Look, I'm not devastated this happened. I'm just saying it doesn't ALWAYS have to be about next year. There was a time college lasted 4 years. Some guys stayed those years and didn't contribute until their junior or senior years. We could use some of those guys.If Kentucky is counting on Devin Askew to be the starting point guard at any point in the future, it'll mean Cal's recruiting really has cratered.
Hell, the Cats are looking at DJ Wagner for 2023. Even if that doesn't happen, a sophomore or junior Hickman would be a better option. He's clearly got more overall potential than Askew.
Askew and his dad can say what they want. He's being recruited over as we speak. So hope they are prepared for incoming competition.
😂I dont think thats a given .. NOTHING is a given anymore with UK basketball. We cant " trust in Cal" those days are in the rear view mirror
I've been on Cal for his system. But if there isn't going to be any penalty for transferring, this will no longer be singularly a Cal system failure. I don't think I'd ever bother to spend time recruiting a high schooler again, unless it's an AD talent, and they aren't coming to college anymore.I’ve been and will continue to support Cal but this system is broken. It’s not just broken for us but it’s impossible to recruit kids that are 5 stars and expect them to then be ok with coming back for a sophomore year. In their minds they weren’t good enough to do it and the response 90% of the time is transfer out. Sad.
Means Cal is going to add a top notch point guard. People on this board have complained all year about Askew. You should be happy but I am sure you will find some reason to complain. Go Cal and get the players we need.well add another to the "we only lost 'X' many guys"! list
I trust Cal and that is probably why Askew is leaving. Cal will upgrade at point guard and then what will you say.
Read my posts. All I've said is I would have liked him to have stayed, could really be a contributor by his junior or senior years. If that's complaining, then, well, okay then.Means Cal is going to add a top notch point guard. People on this board have complained all year about Askew.

I hope so.Soooo this means Mintz and someone else is coming in?!
If you aren’t excited about Mintz returning, you are ignorant in regards to basketball.The wishing of Mintz to return is starting to sound like Sarr being a must have and the NCAA is against making him eligible.
I've seen enough of last year's roster being okay with all of them moving on. The ones that are considering returning are looking to get major minutes, so I'm not excited about any of the key players returning. Cal may only have Allen coming back which would was not what anyone predicted.
Actually most don't seem sad at all about it.LOL at the people in this thread who spent six months wishing Askew were not on Kentucky's roster, but are now inconsolable that he is leaving.
That’s how I see it. That means one of the “up in the air” guys just made it official to the staff. Maybe it’s just Mintz, but my bet is it’s a transfer or Sky Clark reclass.Means we got incoming...
Just a joke, brother. We had people in an Askew thread that got bumped the other day calling him a "taller Ulis." We've also had people referring to Hickman as the same thing recently. It's a popular go to for the rah rahs.Are you comparing ulis abs askew?
Why stick it out when all you hear is negative talk on this board? Cal has decided to hit the transfer portal and upgrade. You should be happy.Didn’t he say he was “Different from other west coast guys” and he would stick it out?!
They are not sad but the next time he scores double figure wherever he ends up people will make a thread and blame cal for running him off.Actually most don't seem sad at all about it.

He will never play over Tyger Campbell, maybe Loyola Marymount has a need for a backup PG.I'm assuming he sees the writing on the wall. This means there is 100% a transfer PG coming in, and/or, Mintz coming back.
Can see him heading back West to team up with Juzang at UCLA.
Tell that to Quade Green was only brought it to get Mo Bamba. Same way for DJ Jeffries, who was only brought in to help get Wiseman.You don’t beg a kid to reclassify, then discard him the next year if he doesn’t meet expectations as a freshman.

Need one more shooterMarcus Carr is going to look wonderful in Kentucky blue.
Those two would be at the top of my list if I was a west coast kid looking for a better system fit closer to home. Maybe add USC to that but they tend to lean more to the “athlete” side as well from what I recall. Maybe Arizona.Watch he will transfer to UCLA or Gonzaga.
is this happening in a different thread?LOL at the people in this thread who spent six months wishing Askew were not on Kentucky's roster, but are now inconsolable that he is leaving.

You were one of those complaining about Askew.is this happening in a different thread?
