It’s tricky. there is a lot more to come in the transfer portal and potentially better players. right? How do you play it? Move early or be patient? I haven’t seen this guy can he handle the ball?
Agbim enters portal

You are lying about being a UK fan or you can't get over the fact that CCC is no longer here. You must have been in hog heaven when Ark beat UK.
If you think that UK had to offer Pope ridiculous money to pry him away from BYU, then you have no credibility. Pope would have taken the job if UK had just matched the BYU pay. Mitch payed the amont he did because it is one of the most demanding jobs in basketball.
Well what exactly are you trying to accomplish here ? What are you so upset about? The current state of college basketball? Are you wanting all of us to join you and boycott college basketball ? I just don’t see what your intentions are.
Not doubting you at all. But told by who exactly. Are you a scout, a booster or know a guy who knows a guy
Agbim is a guy that the person on the discord said Kentucky would go after so who knows.
For sure but I am pretty dang confident agbim will be a top 5 guard to enter the portal
There he is, you have been waiting on him.
He would be dumb as hell going there. Cal will 100% focus on his 2 freshman studs at guard while he dies in the corner hoping for 5 3’s a game.
What seed did cal get this year again? I forgot. I know pope got us a 3 seed despite half the team being injured, I also believe we beat the most top 15 teams in history as well. But what was arks seed again?
If we’re potentially getting a better guard or guards than agbim then we have a damn good job in the portal
I manifested it. I will drive to Laramie right now and get his NIl deal started by buying him chipotle
You are strange man, but good for you. Keep up the good fight.
All I know is Pope said he was hitting the portal to bring in superstar’s next season until then, that’s all we have to go on
Good comparison I think agbim is a better shooter. I see Michigan Jordan Poole
But again, all of those dudes are over 200 pounds and play really physical. It’s not about just height. It’s about being able to be versatile and play different ways.
I don’t know why this is a hard concept. There is no chance you can watch guys like UFs backcourt, Auburn’s perimeter, even a guy like Oweh, and not realize that guards like that can physically dominate a game. You need at least SOME of those. If Oweh is the only guard we have over 200 pounds next year, that is a huge, huge problem. Johnson, Lewis, Perry and Agbim are all in the 170-180 range.
Duke went out and got Sion James (6’6, 220), Foster (6’5, 200), Knuepell (6’7, 205) etc.
So many of the top teams are like that.
Can’t even believe this is a debate at this point. You can’t have an entire stable of dudes in your backcourt who are the size of Rob Dillingham and expect to defend and rebound and execute at a high level. You can have a few of them, but they can’t ALL be like that.
Right now all we have is Oweh on next years roster that can be a bit bigger and more physical, that’s not good enough.
I agree. I’m not saying not to have a guy or two like that. We already do — Oweh.
One of the guards mentioned is max green and that’s a personal pass from me. I think agbim is a perfect fit for Kentucky
Much like davis has done this year behind fland.

So do the people I’m talking about. They would love him at UK . They haven’t mentioned Green .
Could not agree more
Like the ky kids, but like winning more 👍
They won’t mention a name of a player until he enters the portal . But they’re said to be elite .
Yeah, they're 6'3" and 6'4" but they're also much thicker guards that can take a bump and still finish.
There's a big difference between thick guards like Clayton, Richards and Martin and beanpoles that top out at 175lbs and have a 29" waste.
Martin is 6'2" 210 pounds with the ability to finish at the rim.

6'7" 175lb guards are great for mid-major type programs, give me guys in the backcourt like Clayton, Richards and Martin every time over bean poles.
I don't want to hear that those guys aren't available, because they are. All those guys were picked up out of the portal, just like Oweh and Butler were.
Honestly the only ones I think are for sure better are smith/dent/thorthon. So let’s hope it’s 1 of those 3
Allen is trying to help Kentucky
Great, never thought he got a fair shake under 2 faced ccc
Mark Pope is about to dominate the portal. He's measured enough to know that you don't tell Big Blue Nation that we're about to land Superstars unless you're about to do it.
Cal has the recruiting edge but I'd give Pope the nod for assembling a team. As we've seen in the past, simply grabbing talent isn't always a recipe for success. The pieces need to fit together. As Pope states, it's like making a good stew.
IMO, only Smith is better right now as a total package. Shooting, defense, rebounding, size, toughness. He’d be great to pair with Oweh.
Imagine Smith, Falslev, and Oweh as your 1-3.
They aren’t saying anyone is better. They LOVE Agbim and think he would be a perfect fit. They just think there are a couple of guys that are going to be entering the portal that we have a better chance at getting.
Well I hope they are wrong LOL. Agbim is who I want here along with dent
