Pitino used to do it all the time: Padgett, Prickett, Sheppard. They all redshirted or sat out parts of a season. Then he also added guys via transfer who were still able to practice with the team: Ford, Pope, Anderson, Evans.

Nope, it wouldn't be a bad idea at all. Question is would one of them be open to it? Noah transferred here and probably would be playing at South Carolina atm. Perry came under Cal and might have expected to play more. Don't know. I just hope they're both humble and accept they need time. If one of them leaves, the "outrage" from parts of the fan base will be loud.
3rd, 4th, and 5th year is where those guys will pay off anyway. If they are down for it and want to stay here and play they should do it.
They should have known they weren't gonna play much this season with all the experienced talent Pope brought in.
And that portion of our fanbase doesn't care about winning. I'm all about winning no matter where the players dribbled a ball n high school.
Impressive to me is against Duke, Jackson 1 point, tonight Carr 2 points. It really does not matter so far who has an off night because there are others ready to pick up where that off player leaves off that night. Guys just play to the best of their ability. You have Butler as Mr Automatic, Brea as PerfectMan from 3, you have JaxMan playing on both ends. It is a fun fun team to watch evolve. You might get the perfect single cell entity one game this year and no matter who they play that night it will be lights out.
Those two aren't making the amount of NIL anywhere else like they are at UK.
Isn't it nice to absolutely smash some of these teams!? It's been a while since we are able to do that against these none power 5 teams consistently.
