Got to wait a little longer on big Z

So what if it's not supposed to be out yet. It's not like it's a national security secret. Whoever doesn't want it to be out, including the NCAA if that's the case, will just have to deal with it. Right? What would be their reasoning, other than trying to control the narrative?
Cal plays it up in the Media, always has and always will. PR hound

I was unaware that I was jumping the gun so I assume I don't have the full story. I received two messages the first one said Z is suiting up and then a follow-up message a few minutes later it said don't say anything yet. That's why I took it down. My exuberance was more than my confidence level so I should have waited so I am sorry to have screwed things up
 
People are gonna really bitch now that all 3 guys are back.

Cal will start ugonna at 5, z at 4, Bradshaw at 3, edwards at 2 and Reeves will play the point.

Super tall mega lineup of doom.

Triple post offense. Bradshaw on the low bock, Big Z on the medium post, and Mitchell on the high post. May go to a Quad post and have a guard post out at the 3 point line. We will see.

Would be smart of UK to not announce it until Friday or Saturday- don't want UNC to have that knowledge unnecessarily this early.

Cal's quote after Saturday was interesting, everyone assumed it was about Ugo, but maybe it was about Big Z.

"Hopefully by next weekend we will have another guy."
 
Could it be that he has just been granted extension to continue to practice? It was just supposed to be 45 days. Hope DK is correct but I'm always suspicious of anything regarding the NCAA,
I'm afraid it's going to end up being this...Dave Baker reported saturday during the pre-game that Z had been granted a waiver to practice w/ the team while his case remains under review. Sorry DK...:(

We will not see this kid on the floor this year. Has nothing to do with anyone who came here before him. His situation is his own. But he won’t play here. At least this season anyway
 
Is this merely your opinion? If you know something, why not share it with the rest of us?.
I did hear a little something from a sports journalist who’s a friend of mine. But I won’t share it because he actually frequents the board and if he wants it shared then he can. It’s not definitive but the path to his eligibility is a little rugged. I just don’t see it happening this year. But fingers crossed that they can get it done
 
Remember his post about Shaedon Sharpe‘s dad - Shannon Sharpe? And how he raved about Shaedon’s mom - Shannon’s wife?

Yes, he has been wrong quite a bit, quite often.

And just how many times have you been right or shared any information from the infinite amount of sources you surely have? If you get information from any source there is a chance they might be wrong, so what if they are? It happens. Could maybe you just take everything with a grain of salt and realize it could change? Or is it more fun to crush a guy who was nice enough to share what he heard? I'm just generously curious why people take it upon themselves and go out of their way to be pricks for no reason. I mean good for you. Glad making fun of him makes you a better man than me.

Yup this board has some on here that will call you out if you have said the incorrect last name, misspelled something, if you have a source and it turns up incorrect. Just does not make any sense. If you hate everything people post then go get your info somewhere else. If you hate everyone and everything then just stop posting. This place has become stupid with some of the posters.

This is true. You really feel like you’re sticking your neck out to start a thread like this. There are a few here that salivate and pray that your wrong.

There are a few for sure. But when someone has posted info that turns out to be wrong, it’s going to happen. Especially when they keep posting how certain they are (not that Dave was doing that, just saying, some do). I don’t ever make it a personal thing.
 
Well, I love Dave. I’m pretty sure I’ve always been respectful and nice to Dave. I don’t think I did anything wrong here, just pointed out that his info has been off quite a bit lately. Maybe you didn’t know that. I feel confident that lot of other posters here can back that up. If my post upset you, toughen up. Geez. Bunch of pussies around here lately.

Love you Dave.
Wasn’t talking about you at all. Sorry if that’s what it seemed!

It's hard to get info from the program these days. Matt has said it, Kyle Tucker has said it, I think Jack and others have said it too. Info is HIGHLY controlled. Which makes when Cal has a PR gaffe all the more puzzling.

I don't understand it I guess. I remember when ortho shared some info he got regarding cal. It turned out to be incorrect by the end of the season. Very well could have been correct when it was told to him. Or maybe by the time his source got the info it had changed kinda like the whisper game in grade school. Anytime someone shares something I always take it with a grain of salt. Anything can happen. If it turns out to be incorrect, oh well. I have no sources so it's better than my uneducated guessing. The people that just get their rocks off by making fun of people who share stuff must be a lot cooler than me. Too much of a temptation to keep scrolling and not be a jerk.

Thanks- and I agree 100%.

He was talking about Ugo.
 
I'll admit I got Cunningham wrong but to this day I don't feel it was unjustified what I said. I will reveal my source was the father of a player on the same team at Montverde. I will forever stand on my stance that Cunningham verballed to Calipari immediately at the end of Madness and had set up with coach Boyle for a decision day which would have been the Tuesday after Madness. I know this is true to the bottom of my heart. However when the kid's father demanded Cal meet him in Florida which took away Cal's time at a speaking event I knew there was going to be an issue and it turned out that blood was thicker than water. The reason I didn't soften my stance in social media platforms at that point in time was because I knew Cal was still trying to persuade the family that Kentucky was and should be his choice.

Cal gave up the pursuit before I knew that he had done so. Instead he settled for Devin Askew, but I stuck with the idea that Cade could persuade his family that UK was his choice and he was going to go there. Well you know it didn't happen
