A blip from KSR….

[Rockfly78]

It was either the show after the Tenn game or maybe it was the post game show, I don’t recall. But Matt mentioned that we may have have another Kentucky kid next year that is currently playing somewhere else.

Any idea who he’s referring to?

Max green from holy cross.

Max green from holy cross.

If it is him, he'd be a very nice addition.

he is the only one that make sense. The other two names that get mentioned are the kid at DePaul, and Jamal mashburn jr. With mashburn jr I’m pretty sure he is out of eligibility after this year

Holy Cross is pretty bad and in a crappy conference, the Patriot League. Anyway, here are his stats:

I have a family member who knows the family of Max Green. Kansas, Louisville, as well as others have already reached oute.

double digits in 21-26 games as a true freshman sounds like he has a ton of potential despite playing on a bad team in a crappy conference.

I just watched these Holy Cross v UVA highlights from earlier this year, he looks to have a nice handle and shot and plays confidently for a freshman. 16pts with 4 threes in a game where his team only scored 41 total. I saw some Zoom action too, which I guess everyone runs now but he would have at least some familiarity with it. Good size for a guard too.

Any idea if he grew up a UK or UofL fan (or other)?

That would be tampering. You can’t legally reach out until he enters the portal.

Conferences and team success really don't matter much with the transfer portal. So many guys coming from lesser programs to make big impacts. The final four last year had Cam Spencer (Loyola MD), Lance Jones (SIU), DJ Horne (Illinois State), DJ Burns (Winthrop), Aaron Estrada (Saint Peters/Hofstra), Grant Nelson (NDSU) and so on.

If a guy can play, a guy can play.

right... lol. I'm sure that's closely adhered to.

Welcome to college sports!

Only if someone employed by the school itself reaches out I believe. If Mark Pope were to have a talk with some NIL folks and they reached out I think that is technically legal.

DWBT - You are probably right on it being Cross, but there is 12-15 Ky kids playing around CBB that are making an impact, although most are seniors. Kenny White at Morehead, Ben Johnson at Bellarmine, Ipsaro and Potter at Miami OH, Buttry at EKU, Vinson at NKU, Dynes at Youngstown are a few others. ~Most of these would be bench role players at first.

Everybody follows the rules man.

Probably a Kentucky vs Louisville battle

For sure. Green just seems like the most logical to me. He also seems like a player pope would really like

Holy Cross may suck but their SOS is 182.

Last year on this date our current best-performing power forward, who was recently leading the SEC in perimeter shooting in-conference, was playing at Fairleigh Dickinson with their SOS ranked 306.

It’s the damned SEC refs I swear.

Didn’t someone mention a SC recruit as a possibility?
