At least it isn't Duke

 

[IndyCat1995]

Well at least it wasn't Duke

 

[stoneycat_20]

wtf

 

[Smashcat]

what the

Doesn't want the scrutiny. It happens a lot.

 

[UKWildcats#8]

Smh.

 

[Sawnee Cat]

Glad that is over, now we can move on.

 

[Ryan Lemonds Diary]

Doesn't want the scrutiny. It happens a lot.

Then he doesn't need to play professional ball.

 

[KMKAT]

This tells you Bamba is about Bamba. UK apparently not for Bamba.

So how close now is Green to Bamba? Apparently not close enough.

Congrats to Shaka; you've got your 2nd high rated big man in 2 years.

 

[jrpross]

Some kids just don't care about winning I guess.

 

[FishersBlue]

Its a hit but gotta move on. Probably lowers our ceiling which sucks, but need other guys to step up

 

[bookerfan66]

WTF

 

[anon_dge1vx8o0wnm7]

Well alright SKJ, we aren't sleeping now

 

[JasonS.]

And boom goes the dynamite.

Definitely lowers my expectations.

 

[SilentsAreGolden]

You gotta be kidding me. F$%$%$###KKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!

JFC

 

[Mike-D]

Dumb

 

[bookerfan66]

Damn.I'm just so depressed right now.I really thought he was coming here.

 

[kydmb99]

Bamba was the key to being a title contender next year IMO... Hopefully Diallo comes back.

 

[BassProCat]

Wowzer didn't see that one coming of course I could say that about Knox but can't win them all. Good luck kid.

 

[SilentsAreGolden]

MJ said that when he asked Fox recently if he thought they were getting Bamba, he said no and said it matter of factly, like he was sure of it. That's probably what was behind Jones saying he wasn't as sure about Bamba as he used to be.

 

[Kentucky fan 1989]

Why play for Shaka Smart? He's the Billy Ray Cyrus of College Basketball, a one hit wonder.

 

[IndyCat1995]

Texas has put a lot of guys in the league over the years. This isn't that nuts honestly

 

[ukfan693]

Well, that hurts. Hope he enjoys the NIT.

 

[mdlUK.1]

Good luck to him. Now I never want to hear about him again.

 

[Tampa_cat54]

Texas has put a lot of guys in the league over the years. This isn't that nuts honestly

Shaka hasn't.

 

[hoggwildcat]

Maybe Texas will win more than 10 games next season

 

[ganner918]

Well damn

 

[stoneycat_20]

Winning means nothing to him..TEX will not be winning jack

 

[JoeBeeHall]

Bet the odds change on the next national champion now .

 

[bigc45157]

Always seem to be one player away

 

[jrpross]

 

[track42]

We really needed him for a championship run IMO.Sucks.

 

[BassProCat]

Shouldn't have "urged" bam out the door. Smh.

 

[Nuke99m]

Next time we hear from him will be during the 2018 draft.

 

[StevieJFTW07]

Enjoy your one year playing invisible at Texas and enjoy the NIT if your garb team can make it there. We want winners here at UK anyway..not some wuss playing for a nobody because he's afraid of the big lights.

 

[KMKAT]

Why would you pick Texas?

This is more than a basketball decision, whatever that is.

Shaka goes for one big man/year and he's 2 for his last 2.

 

[stoneycat_20]

SKJ or Richards need to be good now..one will start at C
