I predict one of them will play v KU, prolly Bradshaw as his injury was earlier in the summer plus Big Z ofcourse.
Greenberg update on ugo & bradshaw
- Thread starter Dontworryboutit23
- Start date
Well that is 5 weeks from yesterday...
I'll bet ya a Jaeger Bomb, Car Bomb and Flaming Dr Pepper three row chug at next guys wknd. Love watching you puke.
You in?
Remember. June. It's not about the team anymore, and hasn't been for a long time.
I can't stand him, either, but he's not the one injuring the players. The Cal is basically Grandma to these kids who are just using us for Draft Night. "Come here, honey, you got a boo boo? Here, go sit over there on the bench for a couple of months, it's going to be alright. Your draft status won't be affected, Granny's got you covered".
And in 5 to 6 weeks Cal will say a couple more weeks and blah blah blah a few more weeks.
I’ll be surprised if Bradshaw plays this year. I hope he does, but 5-6 weeks from now is a late start and he (rightfully?) won’t want to jeopardize his draft stock. Current trend in college sports. Happens in football too where they now sit out bowl games.
At this point I believe nothing that Cal says. If he is telling the truth then they should be back right in the middle of our cupcake diet.
Stonehill on the 17th of Nov and St Joes on the 20th.

That sounds like absolute hell. Take out the Jaeger Bomb and I’m in. I’ll replace the Jaegar bomb with smoking a parliament at the end to ensure I still puke.
Alright, so deal? You don't think he doesn't play at all or just for Kansas game?
I dont think he’ll play at Kansas, and I think he’ll play sparingly, if it all, for the season.
Of course, it’s all about money and being healthy for NBA draft. Didn’t use to be that way. You can believe that Dan Issel would be ready to man up and play even if a little banged up.
I think they either don’t play against Kansas or they won’t be in game shape. Either way Cal is setting up the excuses if we lose again to Kansas. And will they play if not 100%
That’s what it sounded like to me, but he should know people are gonna jump all over those statements.
Thank you for responding to my post!!! It's soooo nice of you!!! And you did just a great great job with your response. I think people here really look up to you because of your Witt. Just a great job. Really, the best.
Chances a guy who’s not allowed near the court till January is gonna ramp all the way up to banging against SEC-level big bodies under the basket by March AT KENTUCKY despite having a real or perceived NBA future to protect. Yeah I’ll be holding my breath to see a lot out of these guys.
He clearly said another fice to six weeks…which who knows as usually they go longer with Cals guys
But why can’t Ky fans get information besides interviews wjtb Seth Greenberg (Cal ass kisser) and dumb NBA pro day? Ky fans are treated like more garbage by Cal as usual. Can’t bother to take presser to fanbase to talk of how the injury is going, how the team will unfold due to it, etc.
But no…we get of his bulljive injury reports before the season even starts

Ugo I can take. Kid hot injured playing. Bradshaw smells like Sharpe 2.0.
And why not after all of the non truths ccc has spewed over the years
Both Ugo and Bradshaw have been scheduled to be evaluated by their doctors the last 2 weeks according to Pilgrim. Sounds like that has happened, and the doctors are saying 5/6 MORE weeks. Is it 5/6 more weeks to start practice? Full contact? Play in games, etc? we dont know.
Pilgrim has been saying for months, that UK staff has said they were NOT going to rush either one of them back.
Injuries are an organic thing. You have timelines, but people heal differently... you have a week or two setback with something that can throw the schedule off.

I swear. This is so frustrating. I figured Ugo was more hurt than let on. But ti's been nearly 3-4 months for Bradshaw. And now another 2?
Guess we will se him in January if ever.
Strange how we NEVER seem to have guys heal early or on time.
I trust John Vincent Calipari as far as I can throw him.
Yeah I am starting to think the same thing but I hope I am wrong. I think he knows he is a guy who is going to be doing a lot of his developing in the pros. The way this Kentucky team is going to be succesful is with our gaurd play and what we need from our bigs is just rebounding and defense.
I just see Bradshaw as the type of guy who sees $$ signs and isn't willing to risk that for some college success. I think this is a big reason why he has gone all out to endear himself to the fanbase. If he does play I think it will come down to whether he is having success or not. If he is exposed in anyway I think he will opt out in order to protect his draft status.
Don't get too excited we will have late season injuries too, you can count on that.
Very little reason to believe we will see either of them play here
I agree , with the best Dr's at UK you would think these kids would heal quicker with the best treatment they get.
Obviously it's because they are protecting their pro future and don't care about UK at all.
Football team has little to no problems healthy to play in a contacts sport
It ain’t UK doctors…it’s the scam artist running the program and self interest kids he conspires with annually
We need him because our other two bigs are not dependable for multiple reasons. Cal even said in the interview this week that he's concerned about the five spot. Why would he be concerned if we're expecting both of our previous bigs back? Probably because Bradshaw's injury was only supposed to last through early September (August according to Bradshaw himself) but now here we are almost in mid-october and he's expected out another five or six weeks? This has the foul stench of Clutch sports all over it. If Bradshaw doesn't play this season Cal might as well pack his bags. No more Sharpe-level drama allowed.
and ccc continues to allow those type of players to use UK, its facilities & its drawing power
IF he is so worried about the 5 spot, why didn't he recruit someone to play it? Ugo is a raw project, Bradshaw, if he plays, will play outside. Yet he let legitimate centers go elsewhere. Mitchell dropped in his lap and isn't a center & neither is Z. Again, poor coaching & decision making, which will again haunt UK.
He's not continuing to allow it. He encourages it. People are naive if they don't think his primary focus is getting kids drafted. Everything he's done lately - including letting players recuperate for far longer than anyone would expect - is aimed at the draft and the NBA.
