They spent a shit load the last two seasons on transfers. They lived in the transfer portal under Musselman.
Johnell Davis trending towards Arkansas per Travis Branham
- Thread starter kydmb99
- Start date
This will destroy the mentality of a freshmen-led team as we know will come to be. One player making all that money and the young guns are making less and they are better prospects. Please,I've seen it with my own eyes. Good luck with that!
I actually think he’ll do really well next season at Arkansas. But UK fans know that the Cal from 2009-2015 is not the Cal of 2024.
No sane UK fan ever questioned his ability to stack rosters with 5 stars. But his roster building in terms of fit and continuity was never great and it completely fell off a cliff the last 5 years.
It pains me to say it but his sole championship at UK probably only happened because the NBA lockout forced Jones and Lamb to return to school. If not for that they both probably leave and that team, even with a generational player like Anthony Davis, doesn’t win the title.
I wish no ill will on Arkansas or Cal honestly but I’m predicting that your fans will get over the honeymoon phase faster than you hope. But maybe I’m wrong, we’ll see.
They can admit guys that have graduated and Freshman/Sophomore portal guys. The problem comes with the Juniors and Seniors. From what I've read they need to get over have their credit at UM which is nearly impossible for Juniors and totally impossible for Seniors that haven't graduated. They will take all Ivy league type transfers.
Careful what you wish for because you are living it right now.
Sad to see what our program has become and the experts seem to have nailed it.
I guess this is what we get for those who wanted to run Cal off and don't say he quit because he only quit because the constant bashing he has taken in the last 4 years.
His coaching wasn't great but you will never see another like him here at Kentucky in recruting.

Very true. They are the same as the rest of us wanting to make top dollar in their work field and who can blame them.
Will you come back and admit you’re an idiot in 3 months? Cal can literally have 2 lottery picks coming off the bench and do nothing with it, talent has never been his problem. Oh no is Cal going to still get talent.. we better be careful
Good Riddance!!!!
Cal could recruit the Nuggets roster and he would still fail and get outcoached.
I'm much happier and excited about UK today than I was a month ago.
Luckily, you got about 100 other teams you can root for now
Even if he did, why wouldn't he be even further in the hole evaluating, making contacts, getting visits, and negotiating?
Billy wouldn't be bringing the Bulls to Lexington so he'd be at ground zero.
I hope we never see recruiting like his here again because you can't hang a banner now with 3 or more Freshman starters, Ain't happening.
Shouldn’t be a problem for you. Just cross off UK and cheer for one of the other teams in your avatar.
I understand me too but some of these other people are just flat out saying how bad we’re going to suck. How do they even remotely know that we have like 3 players on the roster. I have faith Pope will put together a competitive roster. Now we also have a coach that can actually coach and not just roll the balls out. Hell he’s even put together an A+ staff. The guy wants to win and he will win.
Fn clueless GTFO back to your video games clown
That dude likes 100 different teams…. We all should be grateful that Arkansas took that 🤡 off of our hands. He’s right the only thing the guy could do is recruit ( that was becoming questionable) because about every coach in America could out coach the 🤡! He broke too many of the wrong records at UK and he cared for too many of the wrong things while coach of The University of Kentucky!!!!
I know this guy is highly respected as a player. I have doubts that he is better than Antonio Reeves.
Yes ...and as youall know , youall can now have all the headaches/lies of the oad and players first, we play for March till it dosen't. Good luck and good riddance!!!
A small number of us still exist in reality but I also think he deserves ample time to prove one way or the other
He’s no Donnie Tyndall or Cuonzo Martin or Buzz Peterson that’s for sure
Congrats on finally getting to the Final Four! Wait...
What's your deal? Anyone with multiple teams doesn't have a team. Why don't you let us Kentucky fans worry about Kentucky? GTFO
Take Kentucky off your picture of your 4 favorite colleges and add Arkansas. All you’ve done is cry about Cal leaving.
Exactly, everything that has happened at Arkansas is expected IMO. A carbon copy of here, the staff is the same, the coach is the same. What has changed except the Jersey and the employer?
And this is a program (Michigan) who is out there trying to compete with the North Carolina’s of the world, where players don’t even have to spell their own damn name.
Bless your heart, Michigan.
Lul, 5 stars that don’t mesh. His recruiting was great but come November we all wondered wtf?????
Seems to me after last season donors may be hesitant to buy another team so fast. Maybe it’s like us buying groceries or something. I don’t have 40 billion dollars lol.
Yeah if he's so good idk why he didn't declare for the draft.
Kinda reminds me about about the hype around Max Abmas.
He was good at Texas but didn't take them to another level
