Cal is so Excited…. He has texted Wallace about 10 times asking if he could be go and what he was wearing.

 

[bookerfan66]

Good for him.You could tell his back really bothered him all season but he played through it like a true team player.

 

[WildcatfaninOhio]

Hope he goes in the lottery.

 

[chroix]

They gonna give him the Levis treatment?

 

[MidseasonTweak]

I appreciated Wallace's defensive ability.

 

[bluesundown]

They gonna give him the Levis treatment?

I hope not but it was the first thought that comes to mind

 

[true blue1]

Good luck to the kid!

 

[uky8unc5]

Cason earned our respect.
I'll be pulling hard for him in the League.
My hope: he is picked in the bottom of 1st Round with a winner.

 

[WildcatNC]

They gonna give him the Levis treatment?

Was my first thought too. 😄

 

[Big Cat fan]

I'd be surprised if he isn't drafted by the 7 pick. Maybe not a top 5. But he shouldn't get to pick 8 or later. The best defender in the draft.

 

[chroix]

You know they loved every minute of that BS. Wouldn’t surprise me if they went back for seconds.

I believe Wallace gave everything he had so I hope he gets his just rewards. Just think if we had a PG who would have given him a break when needed. But unfortunately that player got “hurt”!

Good for them... Cal sucks and so will we as long as he remains.

He should be able to throw some money back a Cal now, his dream did come true. He came to UK and left as soon as possible.

Wallace was a "gamer", gave all he had out there, on both ends of the floor. Maybe my favorite UK FR since Ulis (or SGA).

He's projected 13th.

 

[chroix]

He's projected 13th.

Levis was projected higher than that. What’s your point?

At least he played for us and actually tried. Dude played through injuries and stepped up a lot.

I wish him well and will pull for him.

Agreed. He just said what every high-ranking high school player is thinking.

All of these players are mercenaries now. That isn't limited to the one and done freshmen anymore either with NIL and transfer.

 

[kelzer]

I think Jett Howard is very skilled offensively, but his defense is atrocious. I don't see how he can be a high first rounder when he's really just marginally better than Reeves. I guess since he's only a freshman they think he has substantially more upside? Maybe being Juwan's son adds some intangibles?

No judgement but that’s surprising. Not Fox, Monk, Bam… all 3 dudes that left it all on the court nightly and cared enough about the university and season ending loss to be in full down sobbing breakdown mode on the lockerroom after.

Wallace, statistically, wasn’t even a top 5 PG in the Cal era even before you add season results/team performance to the equation

Looks like last season was a success after all.
