Sounds really positive for UK. Sounds like Cal really closed the deal with his last visit. Helps that Fox is constantly in his ear and that K hasn't set up a visit yet.

Would love to get him.. Front court would be loaded!

Interesting that Daniels asked him if Duke had set up a visit this week, and he said no, and it sounded like he was saying his camp had been trying to set one up with them but these events had got in the way. That could be taken a couple ways.

I know the Duke folks are wanting to get that additional year of eligibility for Jefferson, but that may have sealed the deal for Bolden to UK.

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

Sounds good for UK. Cal probably told him that they've yet to find their 5 man for next season. Even if Lee comes back, Bolden will have first dibs if he has any sort of offensive skillset whatsoever.

Also, gotta love Fox putting on the fullcourt press every time he sees Bolden. Hilarious.

They play different positions.

 

[Jkwo]

He called the position that Plumlee played at Duke "stagnant"

 

[BoulderCat]

That does sound good, but there's another thread stating that a lot of the "experts" are now predicting Duke. And I think that meeting with K is on. The wind may now be blowing in a different direction than when that interview was done. I also keep wondering where the scholly is going to come from for Bolden. Sure the entire team entered the draft, but we really don't know yet who's leaving. Just have to think Cal knows something I don't. Actually he knows a lot of things I don't!

 

[sound defect]

He's UK bound for sure.

 

[SmoothRunner32]

Lol some other interviews people said it sounds bad for UK and like this one it sounds positive for UK.

 

[irishcatdaddy]

Cant be that hard of a choice big guy.... One school telling you come be you and ball.... The other is saying yeah please don't be stagnant cause we can't fix u if you are....

Also the way Monk was in the background photo bombing and then Fox walks by tells me those two guys feel close enough to Bolden to always be around... Could be very telling.... Fingers crossed!!!!

thought the same thing.

 

[UKCatnNC]

Getting Bolden would be great! I really like the way he moves. Go Cats!!

 

[mebeblue2]

if that is the same interview i watched last night
he was talking about how UK's big men are not stagnant and they guard every position on the floor
he also mentioned how stagnant Plumlee was and said K told him he would not be stagnant
it sounded like he really likes the way Cal teaches/uses his big men.........the WCS effect

 

[bigc45157]

They play different positions.

What about Giles?

 

[jrpross]

They play different positions.

Not while Harry Giles is on the team they don't. Giles will be logging almost all the time at the 4, leaving Jefferson either as the 5 or playing very little.
