I'm Back: Insight and Background on Quickley Visit and other notes...

Yeah, I know some people don't like MJ but he does talk with our coaches. So, I trust what he says more than some random coach(?) on a message board.
Every media person in the state talks to our coaches. They dont leak recruiting info to any of them, including KSR.

Rumor mill is that Kansas has become a major player for Quickley. I didn't even know they were really recruiting him

Everyone makes mistakes. Let the dumber decision-makers choose a non-UK school. All it is to them is less.....cents. That is not debatable.
 
In the past couple days I've been told by posters here that

1) Okafor roomed with a billionaire at Duke.
2) Kennards dad made statements about how Duke negatively recruited against UK.
3) Johnny Dawkins was fired because of a cheating scandal.

None of these are true. But I'm sure everyone here "knows" everything else they are talking about.


You ate up bruh.

It's not about changing opinions.. It's about presenting facts or good enough evidence, it's about third party individuals looking at it objectively.. and then the other side just has to take it.

I don't care to change a Duke's fans minds. They don't matter and more importantly they won't exist past 2020. They can deny negative recruiting, doesn't matter. It's happening. Change their minds or not.

It's not hard to put 2 and 2 together and see what Duke, and more so Kansas, are doing. Jaylen Brown admitted as much, other recruits are telling our coaches this! It's happening and it's not coming from some mid-major that knows they don't have a chance to beat Kentucky for a top10 player..

Payback for our Grimes push and people buying the Zion/adidas link with the package deal.
 
That's what my boyfriend says....

Normally that's just a joke, but has Cal maybe had enough? He really seems like a man on a mission lately. How many offers did we give out in the last two weeks, like 6 or 7?

I get the sense he's seeing some recruits being cautious, Duke picking up steam/getting early commits), other coaches slandering him, the NCAA now throwing out their eligibility hangup when it's burned Cal 3 times in the past.. And he's just saying "eff it", time for some of the old me.

Which I would love to see. Take it to these coaches. Be the Calipari we saw in the first half of the 30 for 30 coming out of Pitt.
 
Why is half of this thread coming from Duke fans who just want to argue meaningless nonsense? I really wish Rafters did timeouts/bans for annoying non-UK fans who'd rather talk about their boyfriend's mouth than actual recruiting news.

Well we cant talk about recruiting news without a rival fan asking for a link... and my bad.. I take responsibility for the thread devolving
 
I'd just like to know what happens to all those Dookie players parents jobs after they leave the program to transfer to another school. Do they keep those cushy administrative jobs in Durham or do they have to "resign"? Maybe the jobs just disappear?

Also, I know UK has a Equine Research facility that it is deeply invested in. Does Kansas have a similar program that does valuable work in the bread bakery industry?
 
Quickley will be at Kentucky.
Grimes or Keldon Johnson will be at Kentucky.
Zion and/or RJ will be at kentucky.
Shittu is a good possibility as well.
No sources, just basing it off calipari past, and the visits and time cal is putting in these players

Heard they give them jobs in criminal justice
 
It kind of feels like we won't have the monster class some were hoping for but still a solid group.[/QUOTE




Well the good thing is, it can't be a monster or solid class until kids start committing somewhere.
 
Did Newman not transfer from Miss State ? Transfer U and those kind of things.

Maybe Self negatively recruited against Miss State also. For a transfer.

That's fine. One year we get a few quality transfers, so transfer U it is. Newman will average more ppg this year at KU than anyone in Kentucky's backcourt. Does that make him a target for ridicule?

As a Maryland and Kentucky fan, if you want shady recruiting from Kansas, look at Silvio De Sousa. Was considered a Maryland lock for months. Then he took a surprise trip to Kansas and committed there on the spot without even visiting Maryland who was his leader for months. Seems like his handler was shown the $$$$$

Have you watched him play? He's a gun. I absolutely loathe his game.

And I don't care what he averages, when it comes nut crunching time in March, he'll toss up a 3-19 day like all the Jayhawk hypees do.

Of course he will. Did you know that Anthony Davis took the 5th most shots on the team when he played here ? MKG took the 4th most. They went 1 and 2 in the draft. What ??????

Sorry i offended you. I thought most UK fans could see the sarcasm in it.

He said Newman would average more points than any UK player this year, i made reference to AD, MKG and Cal. The whole point was being a team player and your brothers keeper, is more important than being a gun. That you do not have to take 25 shots a game to be a top player.

So no it was not dumb, your childish trolling is DUMB, no offense of course.

I thought it was a valid/solid rebuttal.

Yes, and the guy who responded was just being a smart ass. It is a alias account. He is a regular poster on here, there are several people who do that childish shit.

Anyway, lets have civil, educated basketball discussions, the kids just overlook.
He has been called out by a few after his stupid antics, he will not be back, at least not under David1979.
