Caleb Wilson cancels on Arky again

This Wilson recruitment feels like another Brandon Wright saga because we all expected Brandon Wright to commit to the Cats but he chose North Carolina. I have followed high school basketball recruiting for 30 plus years with that said I haven’t seen one time Wilson has given a hint he’s coming to UK.
Wilson has hinted at uk multiple times now, if anything he hasn’t hinted at unc at all.

Calipari didn't know their game with Pacific was on Monday, he thought it was Saturday (go figure). He got confused and since there was no game I wonder if that's why he cancelled. Regardless Cal is so out of touch.
It’s not even a joke anymore. Someone actually check Calipari for dementia.

He did, but he has done alot more flirting with uk. His buddy comitted here, he was at the champions classic and tweets about uk all the time. At the is point it would be a upset for him not to be at Kentucky
Caleb Wilson is like the Pennsylvania electoral votes of recruiting. All the polls are saying UK the same way the polls said Trump.

It going to be close on election night, but in the end, UK is landing this kid the same way Trump landed PA.

I hope so but I don’t have a good feeling at all with this recruitment. I think when the final player rankings come out in this 25 class Wilson will be in the top 3.
 
So, do we want one and done recruits now? When did that change?
Who is the "we" you're alluding to? I've always wanted elite OAD players.

That will never change for me.

Maybe you just conjoin everyone you disagree with into one massive pile of goo so help expand your straw man arguments?

Cut him some slack. His hogs are looking rough. And he’s taking his frustration out on us.
 
I'm not sure why it has to be a "dream" thought. Oweh is a tweener by NBA standards. Decent, but not great shooter. 6'5", which is small for an NBA three man, but he's also not an elite ball handler for the two-spot.

We've become so accustomed to marginal talent leaving that we expect every fringe g-leaguer to leave, but Oweh isn't even a 2nd round pick at this point.

Meanwhile, programs like UConn routinely return their g-league-level guys. Why shouldn't UK under Pope expect the same, especially in a day-and-age where NIL can pay a kid like Oweh comparable a salary to what the G-league can offer?

We need to change the way we look at these situations from here on out.
Great points. Hope all of the negative Nancys read this.

I agree I am more worried about a big offer to transfer. He is exactly the type guy like Lewis we should build the program around. Have guys here 2-3 years before they go pro and are truly ready but talented enough to go to final fours while here. Surround them with older seniors and pro potential freshman.
