Pretty soon the believers will be on to tell us we need to ride with a freshman over proven players. So Cal can go to NBA games instead of prepping for the FF.
Once somto looks like he has no clue what he is doing, and once quantaince struggles early since he is 17. This freshman class is okay not great, if Kentucky is relying heavily on the freshman class which is looking extremely likely, then they are a NIT or barley into the tourney type of team
 
The thought is this would be a Cormac replacement. The portal/pro’s will take their cut, and it is unlikely Hubert starts 2 freshmen. But early days, lots of moving pieces. Always room for shooters.

That thought makes sense, but UNC didn't have two top 10 wing recruits last year. UNC had just lost Leaky Black to graduation, and Caleb Love, Dontrez Styles, and Tyler Nickel to the portal.

Better eat their Wheaties then.

Are we 'reaching out' to a lot of players for show? Have not heard about trying to get some of them to visit like several other schools are doing.
Do you think Calipari has some actual bodies in his basement? Well, if you don't call the police and turn him in then you're an accomplice. Who knows how many bodies we're talking about 10? 100? He could have been doing this for years and you all are just sitting here abetting it.

Sorry. What were we talking about? I was just turning speculation into fact.
 
UNC is bringing in two elite wings in recruits Ian Jackson and Drake Powell. They are both top 10 in the rankings. I don't see much opportunity there for a guy like this, especially with Cadeau, Davis, and Trimble possibly being there too.
U ain't getting many shots up with that group.

exactly, if we have a chance to get these proven guys we should take them.

Who is going to pick up Reeves, Dillingham and Sheppard's, if he leaves, shooting? Better be trying to get at least a couple if not three proven college shooters and scorers from the portal. Not that many good one available.

As with most any program nowadays, the roster is fluid until it isn’t. There could be a similar exodus with the pros and portal this season, and I don’t think Powell is projected to be a starter at any rate as a freshman.
 
Bad take.
Especially since one of the best scorers ever for UK came from Illinois State.

And the best shooter to ever play the game went to Davidson. Dudes get overlooked in HS sometimes and stuck at small schools bc of size, or over emphasis on freak athletes in the star system (Lebron effect), or bc they played in a state that was viewed to not have high competition and didn’t play in the AAU circuit due to being multi sport athletes.

I think he would like Pope's style of play with the 3 point shot....
Most definitely, and could see himself getting the opportunity to play.

Pope’s BYU team was 22nd in scoring (ahead of UConn) took 50% of their shots from 3 making <35%, imagine the offense with better shooters and a team making 40% of them!
