Anyone hearing of anything after he and Cal were eating at First Watch? I kinda thought more info on his visit would be out there by now? Hoping for the best!
Yep.If he doesn't commit tomorrow, I suspect chances fade quickly.
At this point does it even matter?The roster is a disaster either way.We need him in the worst way. We need a post presence, especially defensively.
Onyenso will be okay, but you got to have two post players, especially with a guy so inexperienced in Onyenso.
And Bradshaw is better suited to play the 4, especially in Cal’s system.
With all these Freshman especially lower rated ones like Hart and Burks pushing things back I almost wonder if Cow has them all signed and wants to release day after day after day to make a media splash.If he doesn't commit tomorrow, I suspect chances fade quickly.
It’s just Cal’s Island of Mis-fit coached Recruits. They will look good against garbage but struggle with good teams. They will have the AAU mentality about a loss, always another game coming up.At this point does it even matter?The roster is a disaster either way.
Exactly Ugo is not ready to play Oscar type mins. Foul trouble will be scary if we don't get him or another big.We need him in the worst way. We need a post presence, especially defensively.

Feels that way don’t it.If he doesn't commit tomorrow, I suspect chances fade quickly.
We don’t even have a back-up. It’s pathetic. You’d think there’d be some 3-star big out there who would kill to play for UK. We couldn’t even keep Lance Ware.Exactly Ugo is not ready to play Oscar type mins. Foul trouble will be scary if we don't get him or another big.
Kaluma to Kansas State
That’s a sad state and Ware got more playing time than he deserved honestly. Speaks volumes.We don’t even have a back-up. It’s pathetic. You’d think there’d be some 3-star big out there who would kill to play for UK. We couldn’t even keep Lance Ware.
Ellen cooked breakfast out of Cal's salary. According to reports, it was the financially responsible thing to do.Our NIL is so poor Cal took him to Waffle House instead of first watch
Agreed.Somto sounds a bit too good to be true. Impact around the rim might be about it. Not much on shooting , or clever footwork. Holds onto the ball too long, they will come take it. Outlet passes? Hitting the open man on offense? Don’t see it the first year,
I said in another thread it’s starting to look like we might miss Ware this year. That’s the state our bench is in right now.We don’t even have a back-up. It’s pathetic. You’d think there’d be some 3-star big out there who would kill to play for UK. We couldn’t even keep Lance Ware.
I think he would be exactly what we need, big body who could rebound. Athletic enough to compete, garbage man for points/lobs/ect, a big who knows his role and can let the wings shine. Not to mention 5 more fouls, because we know the refs will call a ton on us anyway. Any kind of real production over that is gravy in year 1. Ugo isn’t even close to being drafted so he would be a great piece for the 2 of them in year 2 as well.Agreed.
He will definitely not be the focus for our offense. What he will need to do is play defense and clean the boards.
If he can do that and the expected superstars (Edwards, Wagner, Bradshaw, and Dillingham) can put up points, we should be competitive.
But he is not going to be a star, not offensively.
At this point, just getting a 7’0, 250 lbs. athlete is a major win.
We are a little on the desperate side right now.
He’s the guy you throw lobs to.Agreed.

Played in a Drew League game todayHe’s in LA with some OTE guys.
I’ll have to check that out, the Drew league is highly entertaining.Played in a Drew League game today
I heardI checked my source and it told me to STFU....again.
I'll try again later.
Exactly. It’s going to be about looking the best they can for the NBA guys. Winning will be secondary. Winning is better than losing but how was my stat line?It’s just Cal’s Island of Mis-fit coached Recruits. They will look good against garbage but struggle with good teams. They will have the AAU mentality about a loss, always another game coming up.
Far from a disaster. It is actually shaping up quite nicely.At this point does it even matter?The roster is a disaster either way.
All freshmen and 2 sophs who barely played?Far from a disaster. It is actually shaping up quite nicely.
It would be if we had all these guys for 2 or 3 years.Far from a disaster. It is actually shaping up quite nicely.
I would take talented freshman over transfers that can’t make it to the next level every day. There is a reason they are still in school for whatever reason. Now it would help to add quality depth but it is what it is.All freshmen and 2 sophs who barely played?
Well said, talent > experience any day of the week.I would take talented freshman over transfers that can’t make it to the next level every day. There is a reason they are still in school for whatever reason. Now it would help to add quality depth but it is what it is.
Also players out of high schools with winning tradition instead of transfers from some schools that don’t even make the tournament, got to have that winners mentality
