I've got no idea if this means anything at in relation to the timetable for his return... but this feels like good news that he's at least out there.
Aaron Bradshaw at the gym at 2am
- Thread starter LockedonUk
- Start date
I do hope he plays, and plays soon. Rather not have the distraction of “Will Bradshaw play?” before every game.
At least based on appearances, it seems like he intends to play. Could be meaningless, but I wouldn't expect someone just using the program to be putting in work at 2am.
I still feel he plays. He doesn't seem to be nearly as selfish as Sharpe was; his attitude is completely different.
Question is…Is he working to get back to playing for UK or trying to improve prior to NBA workouts?
We are constantly hearing from both Aaron and Cal how bad he wants to play. Sometimes it seems like overcompensation. Like when he inevitably DOESN’T play, they can say “well it wasn’t for lack of trying!”, thereby differentiating it from the Sharpe situation. But as long as Bradshaw remains in Rich Paul’s “klutches”, I will remain skeptical.
My thought is if it was for the draft, why work out in the middle of the night when the draft is still 8 months away? He could work out during the day and chase tail all night like most guys his age. At least to me, it appears like someone trying to work their way back.
I will give it to the kid, he says and is doing the right things to be a part of this team. I actually believe he wants and will play. (Wanted to say it before Smooth)
He should be practicing with the team in shoot arounds . For the life of me I can't see why it is taking so long to heal. I know different people seem to heal quicker than others but this has been a long time for him. JMO
Because being there at 2am makes it look like he's got some super work ethic or something. Or he doesn't want to bombarded with people questioning why he's avoiding playing.
It's clear as day that he's pulling a Sharpe for as long as he can. I'm sick of it, and this is all on Calipari.
Everyone's body is different man. Even identical twins have different ways their bodies function and perform.
It has been a long time. But if he's putting in individual time at the gym at 2 am, I'd say it's getting closer.
I'm not saying you're wrong, because we have NO idea. But we also have NO idea. If that does happen again, we all should be "happy".....it will be the end of Cal at UK.
I don't see this kid pulling another Sharpe situation at all. I think he want to play for UK.
I agree. Kid has a completely different attitude than Sharpe. Seems actually engaged and happy to be here. Polar opposite of Sharpe.
I think he wants to play, but his handlers might be a totally different story. Hopefully he gets to be his own man and make the decision himself.
yea a Memphis troll would say that
I had cheeto fingers at 2 A.M. so i salute him
I hope he’s not neglecting his studies.
When and if he plays in a game...then I will be excited
While I agree it’s possible he never plays, it’s definitely not “clear as day” that will be the outcome.
Why and who would he have to answer questions to? It's not like the general public is in the gym.
It could be a photo op, but why wait this long for a photo op? Why do it at 2am? 5 or 6 am and it would still appear as if he has a good work ethic.
Not a big fan, need to develop proper Eastern Standard Time sleeping habits.
This thought crossed my mind too. This could be the case if he sees himself coasting through this year til the draft. I sure as hell hope this isn't the case. Something tells me that he wants to play. We just need to get Z cleared ASAP. I have very little respect for the NCAA.
If you think a Kentucky basketball player is ever worried about their studies at 2AM. Than I have some oceanfront property in Nebraska that is just for you.
And I hope I am wrong. I don't think there's a single soul here who wouldn't love another title. I don't trust the administration to actually do anything about it if it does happen.
Yeah, we all know those Duke onds were scholars.
I understand the frustration with not knowing what the timeline is for him, Ugo, and Z, but I don't understand all the posts about how long it is taking him to heal. I have no idea exactly what the injury was, or what they did with respect to the surgery. I doubt anyone on here does either. It's impossible to say how quickly he should be healing if we don't know what they did to his foot to begin with.
Someone needs a Snickers.
LOL anyone who even mentions this kid and Sharpe in same sentence have to written off as almost too dumb to be worthy of taking breath. Obviously I am not being 100% serious but you gotta be dumb as a door to not see Aaron loves UK and is hungry AF to play.
I think in the age of social media group think, "clear as day" means whatever I want to claim is true to fit my agenda and gets a dozen "likes" on facebook.
