Youngest team in CBB history?Cyril, Burks, and Hart replace Tshiebwe, Livingston, and Reeves.
8 Freshmen and 2 Sophomores. Going to be very, very young next season.
Is Reeves gone for sure?Cyril, Burks, and Hart replace Tshiebwe, Livingston, and Reeves.

Miles of where we are right now, better than where we were at the end of last season. On the down side Cal has 5 months to coach them.Cyril, Burks, and Hart replace Tshiebwe, Livingston, and Reeves.

Cal's plan in case of failure. He's going to stick it to UK.Cyril, Burks, and Hart replace Tshiebwe, Livingston, and Reeves.

Here's the thing the last several years UK hasn't had athletic enough players, especially guards, now at least they will, the bottom line is this team will prob go as far as Wagner and Dillingham lead them.
My thought is if it’s taking this long it’s not good! Normally there would be something leak by now. Probably trying to finish his degree and slither out of here…Is Reeves gone for sure?
Do you think the boosters are trying to freeze him out with regards to NIL money? It would definitely make senseIf Cal does his typical "I don't want your commitment now, I want you to go home and think it over first" BS ... he'll lose one or both, IMO.
Right, at the end of the day it still may be the most talented team although extremely young. I just watched a 2024 draft rundown and they had Edwards at 1!!!!Well Edwards is the best player IMO, and should definitely be a focal point.
Bradshaw is elite as well.
We need those 4 dudes to be elite, Reeves to return, Cyril to commit, and then guys like Thiero, Ugo, Sheppard, Burks, etc. to play their roles, make shots, rebound/defend, etc.

I agree that Edwards will be the best of the freshmen but Bradshaw I am just not sold on him as yet. I sure hope you are right.Well Edwards is the best player IMO, and should definitely be a focal point.

And one of the two sophomores is actually a 23 who reclassed to 22. Maybe both bc I don’t remember Thiero statusCyril, Burks, and Hart replace Tshiebwe, Livingston, and Reeves.

I like our projected starting five, if we land Cyril.Well Edwards is the best player IMO, and should definitely be a focal point.

I think the fact that Hart has not committed to IU already gives us a decent chance at him.
Our best teams had ELITE talent. I mean Murray and Bam type that are playing in the finals right now type of talent. The chances we have multiple at that level of talent not only in this class but committed to us is slim, even though I really like our class. Only time will tell but I hope we’ve done it.If those 4 dudes can be elite, and I'm talking like Fox/Monk/Bam, or Jones/Knight/Lamb, etc. level elite (with 4 elite guys instead of 3), and then everyone else doing their thing, this team has a chance to go places. But that means everyone else needs to step up, and we need to get Reeves back and get Cyril.

With nothing around them?I mean totally agree, BUT we've had that so many times under Cal. This seems like one of those classes. (2010, 2011, 2012, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2018). Those were classes that had multiple top-flight NBA guys that took us to 4 final fours and 3 additional elite eights (and all 3 of those SHOULD have gone to the FF 2010 vs WVU, 2017 vs. UNC & 2019 vs. Auburn).
This class could do it, IF they're as advertised which I think they are.

HOB is saying he's at Illinois State finishing classes to become grad transfer.The closest IMO is 2014, the only non freshman in the lineup were a sophomore WCS (who was not even close to the WCS that we remember now) and sophomore Poythress (solid returner).
2011 felt a bit like it going into it, since Liggins was completely on the outs the prior year and had barely played, and we we were looking at Josh Harrelson being our starting 5 man, so really it was just Miller we were looking at having as a reliable contributor returning.
But yeah, there's no sugar coating it, we need Reeves to return and we need some magic here.
My optimism of a Reeves return is fading by the day.
