I'm assuming that Carr is now out of the picture. Cal only has one scholarship to offer. Has he ever had a full 13 scholie load while at UK? Maybe his first year with all the Billy Clyde leftovers.Good morning d-League. I echo what others have said about Mintz. And when you consider that the Cats still have a shot at Duren or Cockburn -- it's exciting times for hoop fans again.
I know opinions on Cal are all over the map here. But I do think he has a track record of taking advantage of changes in the sport -- no one got out there as fast as he did with One and Done to put together teams built around talent like Wall, Davis and MKG, among others. That appraoch comes with its own built in limitation -- you are relying on freshmen every year.
Now, he's maxing out on transfer portal talent. That's got its own challenges -- all these guys are looking to be the Stud Duck. But the basic, fundamental requirement in basketball is to have talent.
Off for my walk. Hope the D-league has a great day.
