I wouldn’t give up on Wilson just yet. As other people have said he seems enamored with any school he just visited and the longer it goes without him committing the better.I was hoping we could land Wilson and Lewis but it’s not looking good for Wilson.
I just think Wilson’s recruitment is gonna change so many times between now and the announcementI was hoping we could land Wilson and Lewis but it’s not looking good for Wilson.
this is the one I hope Pope can landBundalo's visit date set.
He's good. I know most folks probably want Wilson, I prefer Cenac myself, but would be quite happy if we wind up with Bundalo.this is the one I hope Pope can land
like his offensive game
If Cenac or Bundalo are willing to commit now, take it. I like Wilson, but he is not a must have if you get one of these 2 guys.It’s nice having a coach who doesn’t put all his eggs in one basket, with Plan B being jump into a recruitment at the last minute or mash square pegs into round holes. Wilson may get Garrison’d if he doesn’t figure out where he wants to be real quick.
These guys make it sound like it's primarily a UK/UConn/UNC battle for Bundalo:Bundalo's visit date set.
Is it possible we take 3 big's in the class?
Well we’re dealing with Klutch so……I just think Wilson’s recruitment is gonna change so many times between now and the announcement
Not sure. They make it sound like he's a back-up plan for Wilson and might even be a better fit for Pope's offense than Wilson (and likely get him for at least a second year unlike Wilson).Is it possible we take 3 big's in the class?
Visit date…unset lolBundalo's visit date set.
Yeah, you would think that's the reason. Let's hope so! To add, cancelled on the same day as Pope's follow-up visit with Wilson.Looks like Bundalo just cut UK. Hopefully because we are getting Wilson or Cenac.
Yea, I was thinking along these same lines….Yeah, you would think that's the reason. Let's hope so! To add, cancelled on the same day as Pope's follow-up visit with Wilson.
The risk of course is Wilson still has pending visits to other schools, including UT this weekend it looks like. Could be nothing at all but just doesn't seem like a coincidence that Bundalo would so abruptly cancel his visit just announced yesterday on the same day Pope meets again with Wilson.Yea, I was thinking along these same lines….
how would Bundalo know that if Pope just visited Wilson today?Looks like Bundalo just cut UK. Hopefully because we are getting Wilson or Cenac.
Visits and commitments are separate items for a 18 year old going to high profile colleges where girls are willing to make them feel “comfortable” and they are treated like a VIP all weekend and see if he can get a insane NIL offer he will want matched. Even if he committed to UK I think a school like UNC would still take a visit to lure him there.The risk of course is Wilson still has pending visits to other schools, including UT this weekend it looks like.

I thought he just scheduled it. This is getting crazy. Pope had to give him some indication he either wanted to reschedule it or he had already filled the spot🤞.
I agree. We want elite talent, I agree. I just don’t think there is a huge difference between Cenac and Wilson. If we lose Wilson, but get Cenac, I think we are fine. Cenac is more of a 4/5 where Wilson is more of a 4/3. If we do get Cenac, I think it is more likely teammate’s like Chandler and Noah get more time at the 3 vs 2.Don't care what anyone says about not having to land elite top 10 guys anymore because of the portal. That's BS. BBN will want the elite guys eventually. If we miss on Wilson this year, Pope gets a pass obviously; but eventually, you've got to prove you can swim with the recruiting sharks if you're at Kentucky.
SOS, I don’t think you should be too worried about whether or not UK gets high school kids ranked in the top 10 by recruiting services. Of course, it’s your right to worry about whatever aspect you think is important. But I think anyone that believes getting top 10 ranked kids is necessary to win a championship in the current CBB environment should at least consider the basis on which the recruiting services rank the players (as well as the data since the NIL & portal era). Look up what On3 states about what they base their ranking on – hint: it’s explicitly not “who will be the best college player.”Don't care what anyone says about not having to land elite top 10 guys anymore because of the portal.

Duke getting the Boozer twins? That would be shocking. LOL!One of dukes insiders just made a prediction for Lewis to Kentucky, dukes insiders only make picks when they know something, so this seems like good news for Kentucky. It also probably means duke is getting the boozer twins
Gotta be something illegal going on thereDuke getting the Boozer twins? That would be shocking. LOL!
I am not being sarcastic when I tell you Duke fans think it’s a massive/surprising recruiting win due to Miami’s NIL…it’s wild.Duke getting the Boozer twins? That would be shocking. LOL!
Still we need freshman and I’d rather recruit and take the best players from a good class, also great classes to get those ranked higher that may not necessarily be looked at as pros who you can get 2-3 years from too.As NBA prospects sure, but haven't we learned our lesson there?
A future lottery pick as a freshman isn't necessarily better than an all conference Junior who has no NBA future (or who might sneak into the end of the second round). At least for the time they'll spend in college.
Apparently that means great day to be a tar heel.GDTBATH?
Just hype after a visit, we were looked at the same way. I honestly believe we will be in it until the end. We will see when he trims his list to 5 or so teams.I was hoping we could land Wilson and Lewis but it’s not looking good for Wilson.
Probably didn't help Miami's cause that they imploded as a team last year.I am not being sarcastic when I tell you Duke fans think it’s a massive/surprising recruiting win due to Miami’s NIL…it’s wild.
While I hate Duke, I hope the Boozer’s go there. Duke will get their share of top recruits. Might as well take up 2 major spots with guys we aren’t recruiting.
never thought they would go any place else, but Miami has tons of NIL $, at least for footballI am not being sarcastic when I tell you Duke fans think it’s a massive/surprising recruiting win due to Miami’s NIL…it’s wild.
