If you look at this fellow's timeline, he's got a 30-second video of the action. There's a 7-5 Italian player involved. He didn't know his name.

Wrong and wrong. It's 7'0, 260# Isaac Humphries. Took a surprise visit to UK.

Was that Briscoe that hit the baseline 3 in the video?

Nope. Aaron Harrison.
Isaiah Briscoe was wearing the white long sleeve shirt.

 

[throatpoker]

nice to have him on campus against real competition instead of with a bunch of CANS

Looked like Aaron.

 

[jedwar]

He looks really good in UK blue. Excited.

 

[Rhavicc]

the big slow white guy in that video isn't Isaac Humphries... at least I'm pretty sure. That guy's way taller than 7'0. Look at him next to Marcus Lee. Also, if you freeze frame the video it really doesn't look like Humphries.

No idea who else it could be, though.

I don't think Sim Bhullar came back from Canada with Murray, so I'm going to assume it was a depth perception thing. Also gonna say he's probably going slow because he's tired. Looks like they had been playing for a while.

the big slow white guy in that video isn't Isaac Humphries. That guy's way taller than 7'0". Look at him next to Marcus Lee. Also, if you freeze frame the video it doesn't look like Humphries at all. Different facial structure.

No idea who else it could be, though.

Guys show up on UK's campus to play pickup all the time... even guys UK isn't really recruiting. Sometimes they come on the visits with other recruits, friends, family, AAU teammates, etc.

now Coach Cal is recruiting mysterious 7'2" player. That dude his huge...

 

[Rhavicc]

I don't know who it is, but it's not Isaac Humphries. See my edit above.

He looks an awful lot like Isaac Humphries man. He looks like he has the same facial hair from the 17U World Games and everything.
I can't think of many white guys that look like Isaac Humphries who are not actually Isaac Humphries.

 

[Rhavicc]

It would also make the most sense that the big white dude is Isaac Humphries, considering that Humphries is on a visit to UK right now.

 

[Rhavicc]

I assure you that is not Isaac Humphries. Look at Humphries facial features. He's got a more rounded face. That guy's face is nowhere close to similar as Humphries except in color. I know you took a strong stand and have to stay with it, but it's not Humphries.

Jason, I dunno, dude has legit Humphries face.

 

[Rhavicc]

I wanna internet scissor kick you square in the gooch.

That would take some damn nice precision. I feel like that would cause casualties on both sides of le gooch.

Don't know how else to tell ya.

Swahili.

 

[Rhavicc]

I've never understood why the gooch is so sensitive.

You know how you can pinch yourself on the elbow and you can't feel it? Well, I remember when I was in high school, I got curious how it felt to staple your elbow skin. Thought it wouldn't hurt at all. It felt like the worst shot I've ever had. So deceiving.

And yes, I spent my time in high school f***ing around. I was in college before I ever began taking my education seriously.

I've been kinda curious about that myself. Glad you saved me the trouble of finding out!

Bleeds profusely as well. You'd think you severed an artery.

Ok so is Murray here just to get a few games in with the guys and then head back for Canada or does this mean no intl games for him??

Who knows. Those aren't until the end of August. However, his dad noted that "UK fans shouldn't at all worry about Jamal and him on the UK team."

In the end, the will figure something out between the start of school, the travel for Canada and the beginning of organized team activities.

Even though Jamal's stock really soared over the summer, it's not like these dates just came up. They have been aware of them for a long time.

 

[Mike-D]

I understand Humphries is on a UK visit. I fully aware of UK's recruiting news. But he's not playing pickup ball in that video. Don't know how else to tell ya.

Yeah, that's not Humphries.

 

[Casper333]

Idk but in that pic it looks like Harrison Barnes didnt get picked for any run with them UNC bitch blue shorts on.

This guy is really hoping he can find something in this scenario to complain about.

Yep .

You should start a thread about it...

Depends on if he knows what an adjective is.

Kind of misleading from the guys tweet, "big news". Jamal isn't even on campus permanently, he's only visiting for the weekend. Big news will be when he moves in and is done with the canadian amateur hour stuff.

 

[catsfanbgky]

I agree man, playing for your country as a high school graduate is not that big of a deal, happens all the time.... If a KY kid wanted to do that with USA everybody would applaud the kid. It is not a important deal to YOU, but let Murray and his family decide if he wants to play and then rush back to enroll. That is the problem with some fans, they think these kids owe them something and like you have a sense of right to decide for them what they should do and not do.

Poker has always had a subtle way with words. Surprised he has even heard of Murray.

Is it Robert Bobroczky

Cal on if he can comment on the 7-foot Australian:
I can’t talk about it. But we did have a 7-5 Italian. I said, ‘Paisan, come over here.’ Seven-foot-five. He made Karl look about 6-7. (Towns: ‘He made me look like Tyler Ulis.’)”

doesn't look like him, either.

It doesn't. Look for the biggest guy on the floor with Humphries face.

All tall white guys look alike..

Poker is a master troll. He used to be so obvious, but has worked on being subtle as you said over the years. He is like in deep cover..now he is just someone you do not even pay attention to when you see him post.

 

[Rhavicc]

You're a butt face.

CUT-NETS is being CUT-NETS right now. Liking your post while you call me hurtful names.
