On the blog: UK signee Jemarl Baker started his official visit today. He's the shooter Cats needed in 2017 class http://ukrecruiting.bloginky.com/2017/04/23/jemarl-baker-in-town-for-official-visit-to-kentucky/…

Official visit??? He committed

 

[Blueblood22]

No, Brad scared him off.

Still allowed to take his official visits. Why not? Don't think he's been here before....just a 'next year tour" now.

Everyone should be scared of my dude Silent R.

He may be silent, but he's also deadly... from behind the arc, that is.

I didn't realize he hadn't visited yet.

 

[kyups01]

who is Diallo?

 

[Bluesnky]

He can't do what Hami do.

He can't do what Hami do.

Looks like what Hami do he going to do somewhere else.

 

[track42]

He can't do what Hami do.

True but at least he will actually play for at least one year.

 

[Mike-D]

Fans maybe. Reference the 22 page thread and counting.

...is looking like a pretty important player for next season right now. We might actually need him to shoot like Ray Allen.

No joke, we're lucky a Top 75 kid that can shoot at a pretty good clip became available late and just sorta fell into our lap.

If Diallo leaves, we will still only have 3 guards. I think Cam is almost a sure thing if Cal wants him, especially if Diallo goes. I wonder if Vanderbilt can play SG.

Adds more context to the Knox in-home with Cal trying to sell him on playing Shooting Guard imo

If Cam is a UK lean, he's likely waiting to see what Knox does before making his decision. With no Diallo or Knox, Cam would probably start over Baker due to his size and ACC experience.

Despite his improving jumper, Vanderbilt is still very much a point forward IMO. He could play SG if we needed him to, but that wouldn't be the best way to use him.

Didn't hit me until I read your post but you're exactly right.

Yeah those silent but deadly ones scare me off as well. You know somebody has got to take a big ole

He was always going to explore the NBA Draft. This shouldn't be a surprise.

 

[EclipsingYou]

That's akin to asking if Jon Hood's commitment will scare off Wall's commitment. I like Barker as a player, but he isn't in the same league as Diallo at this point. Most everyone expects Diallo to lead us in scoring next season.

You do realize they do it all the time in football, right?

LOL at the OP .
