I agree. The kid has passion, wants to win... No doubt in my mind. I have never seen someone short arm or strong arm so many five footers. He handles the ball reasonably well for a young man but this should be UK Basketball, not varsity high. I want him to stay, he needs to stay, in time I do believe he will get what he is looking for if he will be patient and go through the necessary process. He can become a great one and a UK beloved if he wants to wait and pay the price to become one of those. I really believe that. We will see.By the time you're at the D1 level quickness and shooting are hard to improve. He's backup material, especially at UK.
Final four bound with Clark. No doubt about it.Don’t think people realize how underrated Clark is.
Here’s the deal......either we want multi year players or we don’t. Askew can practice and train to be a much higher level player. That said he will be a beast in year 3. The problem is he’s not the prototypical Kentucky PG under Calipari. The guy that has all the tools but needs direction from Calipari over the first 3 months to get it together.
This season is a major timing issue for a guy like Askew. He needed a lead PG to show him the ropes before being THE GUY. Unfortunately, those guys are gone.
One and done. They like it now.Cal got y’all giving up on kids after one season lol
man he’s done a number on this fan base
It’s gonna be real interesting to see how he reacts to Hickman or whoever cut into his minutes next year. How many minutes do you think he plays when and if Wagner gets here? I see him playing here one more year and he’s gone one way or another.Here’s the deal......either we want multi year players or we don’t.

Honestly, the current version of Cal isn't good enough to coach at Kentucky either.
I don't care how much shit I catch. I call it like I see it. I used to be a big Cal supporter, but his act and inability to change or adapt has wore me out. Nobody, Cal included, is bigger than the program.Pulaski, your correct, but your going to catch a lot of $hit for saying the truth. A lot of posters on here put Cal above UK, and they will attack you personally, for saying something about their hero.
OLD STOLL FIELD GUY!
I am 99% sure Cal also thought Clarke could run the point, he was def heading in that direction.Cal grossly over estimated this recruiting class.

I'm with you on it buddy.I'm with you, 100%. As you know, I catch a lot of $hit because I call it, like it is. I love UK over any coach, and have for over 70+ years.

Askew’s PG skills have.Cal got y’all giving up on kids after one season lol

I don't even feel he has a good handle. If I'm guarding him I'm in his jersey. He will pick it up every time. Plus if you notice when a defender pushes up on him he uses his off arm to try and push them while he is dribbling. Even he doesn't trust his own ball-handling.I agree.

What have you seen from him skill wise that makes you believe he will be a "beast" in 2023? Seriously. Fill me in.
Is that you herro?Kid should be in high school, I think he will be much better next year and look out year 3
He should not be playing as much as he is. In a decently ran program, he is sitting and learning. He is being put in a losing position by Cal.Askew’s PG skills have.
Is he the weakest PG Cal has recruited here? I would say yes and it’s not even close.
Fans need to chill on Askew..He is exactly what we need..a 3-4 year player..IMO he's a 2G..We want to complain about too many OAD, but bitch when Cal brings in multiyear guys then complain about them not being stars as Fr..Let's all be patient and let these kids like Toppin, Ware, Askew, Fletcher, Allen get a couple of years under their belt ..He is probably a great kid but he isnt. good to play point guard at Kentucky. He is slow, dribbles way too much and can’t get to the rim. His turnovers are not good. .
Askew doesn't in any way deserve 30 minutes of playing time right now.That's the problem.He would be fine as a bench player.But Allen and Fletcher gets zero minutes.Fans need to chill on Askew..He is exactly what we need..a 3-4 year player..IMO he's a 2G..We want to complain about too many OAD, but bitch when Cal brings in multiyear guys then complain about them not being stars as Fr..Let's all be patient and let these kids like Toppin, Ware, Askew, Fletcher, Allen get a couple of years under their belt ..
Allen nor Fletcher can bring the ball up or play PG..Allen can't dribble or pass..he's had 3 Ast on the year..they're not going to get his min at the point..both are forwards..Allen is behind Boston, Fletcher is buried behind severalAskew doesn't in any way deserve 30 minutes of playing time right now.That's the problem.He would be fine as a bench player.But Allen and Fletcher gets zero minutes.
Whose fault is it that we have one true point guard on the entire roster?Cal could have recruited a lower 4 or high 3 star to go with Askew.He couldn't have been any worse.Cal built this roster very poorly.Allen nor Fletcher can bring the ball up or play PG..Allen can't dribble or pass..he's had 3 Ast on the year..they're not going to get his min at the point..both are forwards..Allen is behind Boston, Fletcher is buried behind several
He won’t get quicker or faster he will get strongerThe truth is it’s nothing specific about him other than we’ve seen young guys with an average skill set who hang around a few years become valuable to our efforts to compete for a championship.
That said, he’s a competitor and aggressive. I can see that in him. I believe that time period will take an average shooter willing to work and turn him into a 40% or more guy. He will train with the Kentucky facilities and staff. He will get quicker, faster and stronger with an already strong frame. A 3rd year Askew is a completely different, high level college player, in my opinion.
Just out of curiosity who has helped us win a championship with an average skill set?The truth is it’s nothing specific about him other than we’ve seen young guys with an average skill set who hang around a few years become valuable to our efforts to compete for a championship.

And your posting is not good enough for this board.He is probably a great kid but he isnt. good to play point guard at Kentucky. He is slow, dribbles way too much and can’t get to the rim. His turnovers are not good. .
Same thing was said about Clarke, and Askew, and .... you get it. Like many others, I'm done with recruiting services setting expectations for me.Don’t think people realize how underrated Clark is.
