Does anyone else feel like Mullins is the type of recruit that fits Pope's system better than a guy like Jasper Johnson? Being a Kentucky kid, I naturally want Jasper...but I feel like Mullins is a better fit. All in for Mullins IMO....Go CATS!
Mullins is a more consistent shooter and plays super hard 100% of the time. Johnson is a more streaky shooter and sometimes lets up if shots aren't falling.

Mullins is a excellent shooter (maybe the best in his class) while Jasper is more of a streaky shooter. In an offense that relies heavily on high volume shooting...give me the excellent shooter any day of the week!What exactly makes you think Mullins is a better “type of recruit” than Jasper?

We have a deep, experienced roster, which is very nice. How many total minutes do you think Perry, Chandler and Noah will each play this season ?? For example, here are the career minutes progressions for Willis and Hawkins, as members of talented rosters. They had to wait their turn ...Just don't promise either one anything. Perry, Chandler and Oweh are all really good. Will have to compete with them at the two guard positions.
Just a wild guess Perry and Chandler 12-14 minutes and Noah 5-8?We have a deep, experienced roster, which is very nice.

I only took a couple of minutes to think about it. I would not have expected Perry to play much at all but the way they are talking he sounds like the best shooter on the team. And Chandler is a three level scorer, not a lot like that.Who are you taking minutes from?
All these upperclassmen didn't come to UK not to play.
I will answer. Lot better shooter, better assist guy, better rebounder, less turnovers. Jasper has the advantage in athleticism and able to drive it / create for himself than Mullins, but with the careless ball handling and awful shot from 3, Mullins is more dependable and actually will create shots for teammates. Which is why he averaged 6.5 APG. Averaged 6.2 Rebounds, and over 3 steals. That is how.What exactly makes you think Mullins is a better “type of recruit” than Jasper?
Agree, tounde may be my favorite player in the class.You take them both.
Then you also go get Tounde Yessoufou.
Four-man freshmen class.
Bring back the 5 returners.
Add three portal players.
12 man roster.
Case closed.
What is that feeling you have based on? I trust Pope on this matter because I am certain that his decision will be based on tangible things vs intangible feelings.Does anyone else feel like Mullins is the type of recruit that fits Pope's system better than a guy like Jasper Johnson?

That elephant is getting pretty big.What is that feeling you have based on? I trust Pope on this matter because I am certain that his decision will be based on tangible things vs intangible feelings.
RDF, who do you think ends up getting Mullins?UConn thinks he's a top 10 player in this class (which is an excellent class) and they hosted him for his first OV on August 1st. They've told him they expect him to be a 1 and done player too.
Mullins is an elite talent. He's athletic, tough, and a big time shot maker.

This right here!!! Ralph is absolutely on point as usual! Put me down as one that believes Mullins will actually be more lethal from deep than Reed was for us last year! Yes I know that’s lofty but I’m telling you, this kid is LIGHTS OUT! As in lights out like I haven’t seen in years! Give me MULLINS all day over Jasper. And that hurts me to say about a beloved Kentucky kid but it is what it is.UConn thinks he's a top 10 player in this class (which is an excellent class) and they hosted him for his first OV on August 1st.

400 minutes each for Perry and Chandler would be impressive with all the experienced players at their positions.Just a wild guess Perry and Chandler 12-14 minutes and Noah 5-8?
I don't know. I do laugh how basically everyone who does recruiting in the media doesn't even consider UConn a threat for any player when they are taking visits there. Friend thinks UConn will be in final 2 with either UK or Duke. Comes down the OV's. Michigan could be a sleeper in this according to others who I don't know as well but seem to know what's going on with his recruitment. Nobody expects it to be IU.RDF, who do you think ends up getting Mullins?
I'm not saying that Perry or Noah will but with the transfer portal and NIL the days of waiting your turn are over for the most part. Guys will leave and go to a different school every year if they feel they need to.We have a deep, experienced roster, which is very nice.

They would make a lethal back court!Jasper is a PG/Combo guards
Mullins is a pure SG
DIfferent players all together.
