Anyone hearing anything on Nate Ament?
- Thread starter bigbluedon
- Start date
Last I heard he was supposed to announce his committment April 1st.
Go ask the UofL fans, they are CONVINCED he is their's to lose.

Eh a new portal options turns up every hour.
They were also convinced they were better than an 8 seed. Also, Peyton Siva was better than John Wall.
No but North Carolina fans are worried that Caleb Wilson might be back on the market because Elliott Cadeau was a BIG factor in him choosing UNC and he’s entered the portal. They say Wilson still hasn’t signed his letter of intent. I don’t think that really matters these days anyway though.
Just curious. What does U-6 mean?They were also convinced they were better than an 8 seed. Also, Peyton Siva was better than John Wall.
I hope Wilson goes there at this point. He deserves all the on court misery he can get for the drama he caused.
Will Riley like. I prefer a transfer that's proven. I'm completely satisfied with lewis, moreno, jasper. All 3 are hardworking and have great iq.
Yes. I've never known what it meant before. I haven't lived in the state in over 30 years, so I've never paid much attention to Louisville.
Pretty sure he isn't coming.
We seem to be contacting a lot of PFs in the portal already, and not ones that are the level to come in and be backups necessarily. Think Pope is reading the tea leaves and focusing elsewhere.

Louisville was referred to as "University 6" (or U6) in the Adidas/FBI scandal.
I would still take this kid over any forward in the portal. His upside is elite. That being said, if he's demanding a king's ransom in such a way to hurt Kentucky's financial flexibility, you have to move on from him. Pope has proven that he does not need first team all Americans to get the job done.
Do you think this kid can be a "first team All-American" his freshman year?
Haven't seen him play, but that is Cooper Flagg territory.
I think he's closer to Brandon Miller in terms of upside. Not necessarily playing style, but potential college dominance. He's not on Cooper's level, but he has a full array of skills that will make him an incredibly difficult matchup on the college level.
I could see him averaging 15, 5, and 2 next year at Kentucky, even with Oweh returning.
Thanks.
Didn't realize he was that skilled. Hope the Dirty Birds don't end up with him.
Listened to a few minutes of a UofL show today and one of the hosts said he thinks he's a Duke lean right now.
I have no clue how a top 5 talent would do under Kelsey for a year but Louisville fans are convinced if they sign one elite player, the rest of college basketball is going to be scared and think, "Louisville's back!"
I'll pay attention once they're able to beat us and not get trounced in the first game of the tournament.

Been trying to get the scoop for us. Been messaging him on AIM for the past week but haven't gotten a response.
If he averages that I would take him- I know nothing but just seems he is going to the highest bidder
I sent him a friend request on Facebook but evidently he DECLINED it !
Teams. Yes he will play for a team, but don't think for a second that teams (and I) are realizing that you need experience to do big things. Cooper is a completely different story, and Ament won't come close to Cooper IMO. Who's going to want to pay a crap ton of money for an unproven player?Teams?...or just you? 😉
Wow. Haven’t thought about those in forever. Used to download game roms off irc back when lol
Right? We'll still get our share of HS recruits, but we're no longer beholden to them and the AAU coach crap like we were in the past. No longer even beholden to guys making a last-minute jump to the NBA. Don't want to play ball with us? Cool. We've already replaced what you would've given us with a Senior and a Sophomore with more reps in the weight room and in the gym, both of whom have proven production on the college level.
It's made moving on from the previous regime and taking a chance on a coach like Pope so easy. High school OAD's don't want to play for him? Okay, here's a bunch of college players that want to win on the college level that do.
Unless these High School kids are generational talents I’d go with proven college players. It’s not just talent that wins games, you need team chemistry and guys who know their role and can do it well.
Announcing April 1st. (3) Perceived leaders are:
Louisville, Duke, Tennessee in no particular order. UK on the fringe with an outside shot but the latest scuttlebutt has other schools ahead for Ament's services.

Louisville is gonna be good make no mistake. Kelsey can actually coach. Am I worried, not at all but they are back to being a real program again.
Love to have him if it's reasonable which I doubt$. Honestly I don't really care anymore. Everyday I'm on TikTok he's posting pic saying changing colors, then it him in TN instead of Ark and every other team every other day.
It's kinda stale at this point.
There was talk yesterday of him pushing back that April 1st date. The names I have heard the most are Duke, Louisville and Kentucky with Duke in lead but not by much over UofL and UK.
