He’s further along than Booker and Lamb. I love BBN but some a$$es here like to pick him apart. I want him back, but going by some here, would you stay?
Allegedly the NBA drafts on potential, he seems to have a great future ahead of him.
I agree. That's why I said is he positioning himself to be OAD.Sick of this “nba drafts on potential” garbage. No offense op. There’s value in returning, proving your potential and raising your draft stock. The value is millions and millions
I bet he wants to be. That's why he came here. If he gets a first round guarantee, he's gone.

We really don't have anyone that should leave early.
If anyone was ever drafted on "potential" it was SKAL. Only at UK can a player average 6-7ppg and get drafted in the first round.I agree. That's why I said is he positioning himself to be OAD.
Any player with a first round guarantee would have to be a dumb ass to stay in college.
Unfortunately, all you have to do is wave a million dollars at a 19 year old kid and that's all it takes to sway him away.Lies this is the garbage ruining college basketball. If you’re a freshman and you’re projected say number 25 you’d be a big time idiot to leave and not prove you’re value as a top ten pick the following year. This first rd guarantee talk is zombie kool aid drinkin lame ass ruin of college basketball.
Wrong . No way anyone can say that at this point . To do so would be silly. If the season ended today herro would be drafted between 25-40 . SO IMO he would be back but if he continues to improve he could work his way into a top 20 pick which then he should and would leave. Right now the 3 guys who would leave are Hagans ( and he has said he came to Uk as it was the one school he knew could get him to the NBA in 1 year ) , PJ ( top 25 pick ) and KJ ( top 10 pick ) . Travis as well would be drafted.Anybody but KJ and PJ not coming back will be same old shit, different year, and actually everybody needs to come back.

I think a lot of this will be influenced by what happened at the end of the season. If we do make the FF obviously a lot of players' stock will rise. We'll just have to wait and see how this plays out.Wrong . No way anyone can say that at this point . To do so would be silly. If the season ended today herro would be drafted between 25-40 .

Yes, he did for a while but is he still on a roster???But he did, to my amazement, show his potential in the pros.

Like Al McGuire advised his players; "take the money and run".That is such a good point. It's like if a regular student was writing for the Ky Kernel on campus and ESPN called and offered a 6 figure salary to them because they were such a talented writer- pretty sure we'd all leave school before graduation in that scenario.
That said, I never blame someone for leaving early but there is a difference between getting drafted and being ready.
I love Herro's game, nothing I can really pick apart. But...first round pick or not he will get toasted in the league unless he gets significantly stronger and puts on some lbs.
Please no! Was really hoping to see him grow into our leader as an upperclassman. Saw this tweet though, scary good.
Tyler Herro over his last 6 games:
50% FG
41.4% 3pt FG
100% FT

I would but a million is not what it used to be, especially in the NBA. Stay another year in college, improve your draft stock and end up signing for about 4-5 times that amount.LOL @ the idea that a million dollars is nothing. We'd all take the million dollars.
I saw something about him last week trying to make some team's roster but wasn't sure.Yep, I think I read where he is on the trade block with some team, still has ok stats for a kid that I didn't think had a chance.
