Yep and a few guys, namely Joe Tipton, reported yesterday that UL actually leads for Nate. I don’t even want to entertain the thought of losing Top 5 rated recruits to effin UL!!
So you’ve read that we’ve offered a bigger NIL DEAL than UL or Duke? If so, I’d be much more positive about our chances here. Apparently this is the biggest factor in his recruitment.
Who cares.... Let him to to UL we will be just fine... Some of you sky is falling is comical.
In the past 15 seasons, we’ve played UL 17 times and they have two wins. Through those same number of games we are 8-9 vs KU. 8-9 vs Duke. 12-5 vs Florida. 12-5 vs IU. 8-9 vs UNC. 9-8 vs UT.
I care because of what we just watched when we played Texas. Tre Johnson, a freshman, put 32pts on our heads and led his team to the win. Just one example of why you and I should both care about landing top 5 recruits! For the most part I think that recruiting high schoolers isn’t that big of a deal but when we are recruiting top 5 caliber guys like this guy, it matters a lot!
We already have one to two freshmen set to start next season, if Ament comes he’s probably assuming he starts. I don’t know about that. Can you get a more known commodity at his position for the same or less in the portal? If he comes, great, if not, I won’t be torn up about it.
As much as I hate UL, can’t really blame them after the last two Kenny Payne seasons. High fiving may be a little bit much, but they have reason to be at least a little excited.
Cmon now man. I’ve lived in Louisville all of my 46yrs and have to put up with it daily. The simple fact is that UL is improving at a rapid pace under Kelsey. I’m not at all taking away from our win against them or from our season! Simply saying that “if” they land 2 top 10 guys in this class they take another step in improving further. It all starts with recruiting.
BOOM goes the dynamite !
Sack up?? lol. Ok bro. Yall just keep letting them land too 10 recruits and remind me how somehow it doesn’t matter.
According to an article yesterday, UK has the highest offer with UT and UL 2/3. They also said UK’s offer wasn’t as crazy as some others have gotten. Duke paid so much for others plus returning guys that they made a lower offer.
I think I understand, too, Hytchye. It doesn''t need be alarmist or whiney about lil' brother. Good points. It is rather remarkable Kelsey has made such a turnaround from the absolute dumpster fire that was Louisville. And we do want to see Kentucky land the recruits they prioritize. As they do Ament, as anyone should.
According to the article yesterday, Duke has the lowest offer of the finalists. So if it’s money it won’t be them
Agreed. The last thing I'm going to do is worry about what little brother is doing for next year. Or any time unless they are our next game. We've got plenty on our plate to finish this season out.
