Dude, there is legitimately absolutely no basis to thinking he will transfer. You buy he may transfer because of your perceptions and your opinions based and clouded in your somewhat constant negativity?
You think Quade May transfer ... and only give random reasons/ assessments as to why.
You can say “ I think so and so may do this” then give obscure reasons for just about anybody.
As much as I love Quade, he doesn't play d, unlike Ulis, his size is limiting his game. All Nova guards are pass first, their lead guard os successful because he can post hid mid, drive and hit from deep.
Quade can hit from deep and some mid, no post weak driver...
He would benefit running the second crew, where he is the offense...
Shai got his chance and ran with it when Quade went out with 'back' issues..
When Quade doesn't let his size dictate his game, then he will be special...of he is afraid of competing with hagans/Quickley, then maybe he should leave..we want players that compete at everything. All the greats, everything was a competition
Jordan
Bron
Magic
Curry
KD
Russ
The desire to win is only surpassed by the hatred of losing.
Again I love Quade, maybe a Redshirt year will allow him to focus on what he is great and improve on what he isn't proficient in...

Why didn’t you list Bird in that group? He played every game like it was his last. You put others on there that are head scratchers.
And if he does? Will you give us all a break from your all-knowing crap posts?
Agreed. Just say you don’t think he will if you think that.
ok , so I think the OPs post is just guys talking - like giving opinions hanging out at the local coffee shop and then that becomes "word around town" then "word around the program" sort of thing. Good talking points but hard to connect the dots to a source.
so I don't want to make it sound like I'm going on a rant because I really don't believe the program would question wanting him back.
That said, what the fans want or say about Diallo is one thing - I was frustrated with him as much as anyone I guess during the season, but he is a Kentucky player. What the coaches say is something else. Even though scholarships are year to year, they recruited the kid and as long as he represents the university well and does what is asked of him to the best of his ability (and yes, I think even though he seemed completely tunnel visioned about how to play the game and it probably cost us some games, I think he wanted to be better) the kid should have a spot on the team even if we have the next Anthony Davis wanting to come here and don't have a scholly to offer.
Even though the one and done approach is not much for kids sticking around, we can't be mercenary about kids wearing the UK uniform.
Oh, would you please shut the hell up? There is nothing worse than people who act like they have inside scoop but don't. If you have proof, let's hear it? If not, you are just blowing smoke. Gets so tiresome.
Wasn’t Cal’s ‘15 team able to co-exist with a 10 man rotation?
Why wouldn’t Cal reconsider? We only won 38 games and we lost Alex early.
Cal said no to the zone forever, but he relented.
There’s room for everyone back + the newbies.
The rotation didn’t hurt anyone’s value getting drafted.
And will someone tell Quade no one has left UK to win a title elsewhere.? Byron Mouton was a unique move.
Looking for Knox and Shai to come back and line up against Duke.

Yesterday SI posted a projection that had Knox and Shai going between eleven and fifteen, Diallo about 43.
Out of their top 7 picks, 5 are college centers.
Both Knox and Shai are , by the article, bench players...somewhat far back on that bench. Hami is considered somewhat either a Longshot to stick or a g league project.
Course, that can change in 5 seconds.

Quade took the 3 pointer at the end not Diallo. The quote you referenced was about Diallo and you're talking about Green, strange.
It's not that he wasn't a star as a FR. It was LIKELY that he was passed by another FR at "his position". Green knows his ONLY chance to play for $ is as a PG. It's hard to do that with SGA ahead of him, and then having to compete w/ Quickley this year, and then maybe Hagans the year after that.
Green wasn't "recruited over" by bringing in SGA. SGA was 1) to be a backup to Green, and 2) a expected to be a 3-4 year player. SGA simply out played Green, and it wasn't close.
If SGA doesn't return, I bet Cal gives him the chance to be the leader & PG, and play Quickley as his backup and some 2G. But you've got to EARN it, nothing is handed to you.
Coach Cal & his staff has an in home visit with EJ Montgomery that will take place next week.
The thing about Green and defense, there was a piece on him before the season started where he said he wanted to be the best defensive PG Cal has ever had. Don't know what happened, but I don't think it was a lack of effort.
My “negativity” has nothing to do with my post. I want Green here. Bad. Only someone in denial can look at his situation and think no way he’s considering a transfer and what I posted was the most logical reasoning behind it. You need to look up the word obscure because I don’t think you know what it means.
Read bout how everything was a competition between Russ and KD, from who is first, eating, ping pong, ft...should of put kisses Moses Malone and DR J...lived in Erie PA early 80's...that's why I didn't put Bird or McHale or Parrish,....

He's just a freshman. Defense is the most difficult aspect to learn and some players catch on faster than others. He'll be fine with more experience.
I think that once Hami proves that he is a 1) able passer and 2) a willing passer he'll get along fine. For people with mortal athletic ability, you learn to pass not because you want to pass all that much, but because the threat of passing to an open teammate makes defenses pay for throwing waves at you a bad idea. For his whole life, Diallo has been able to score no matter what high school / AAU teams threw at him. Now, he's learning that the inability to pass (it is a skill, after all) is actually hindering his ability to score. He'll get there; it'll just take time.
News flash: I was one of those guys We were messing around to see that if we were buzzing and namedropping if you would run an post about it.

Excellent post. I am a Hami supporter. Kid, in my eyes, has began to mature and be accountable. You hit the nail on the head, Hami now sees what defenses will do to him, he can't just out athletic opponents like he has done all his life. He is a NY Guard and will be a star before all said and done. He faced and acknowledged his biggest obstacle to his dreams, himself. That said, I only see positive things for him. Rule changes a more even playing field in SEC will help his game. Teammates having confidence will too. Hope he comes back, maybe the difference on being a cautionary tale to UK hero and legend while on campus.
I like the change in philosophy. I believe Cal wore out this year with too much youth. Secondly he saw Nova with their veterans win and play pretty basketball. Third he wants that 2nd title to be considered high elite at UK and nationally before he quits and the clock is ticking. Realizes he needs maturity and experience. I think his recruiting with last year's class is reflecting the new pattern.
Nothing about him. Only thing that the everyone felt good about recruiting with the upcoming classes and Capel leaving.
I can't make it next week when we play, but if anything new comes up the week after I'll post.
Probably all be moot by then
This and wants Brad to get Ring as well!!!
The ability to remain at the forefront of his trade is what makes Cal great, he will adapt and lead the pack once again.

How did you know who it was?? Not like AGEE posted his picture.We didn’t think he’d go this far and post about it. Honestly
I was one of those guys too. We gave real info but told you it was all BS, knowing that Agee would run here to post and you would shortly follow to rip him. Thanks for the memories bro.News flash: I was one of those guys We were messing around to see that if we were buzzing and namedropping if you would run an post about it.

Well Dude... If that’s how you get your kicks more power to you. It sounds like you went into some pretty specific details to perpetuate your fraud.
