Why in the hell would I?
I’m glad you and the rest of the ones with your heads in the sand are pounding your chest over getting role players. Until we actually get some difference makers (Davis/Richmond, probably Smith/Osobor) everything I said was right.
You're either a terrible fan or no fan at all. You seem giddy at the idea of UK missing on some primary targets. It's no wonder either. You created an account in February and you've been a trash-level poster ever since.
You'll disappear when UK's resurgence takes complete form. Or you'll just show up with a new user name and play the role of another filth-level poster.
You strike me as the type of dude who wakes up and pisses in his own coffee just to have something to bitch about that day.
Nothing but bitching, whining, goalpost shifting and negativity from you since Boss Hawg slinked on down to Fayetteville.
Maybe Pope has better players in mind. We don't need to outbid everyone. If Pope wanted him, it sounds like he would have chosen UK if we matched. Not worried
Oh I agree with Mahaney. I’m glad Pope didn’t try to outbid UConn for him. I don’t think he would have been that good here. I definitely wish he would have tried to outbid Baylor for Roach though.
Timing of my account being made is insignificant. Old one was banned for being hypercritical of Kal.
That resurgence isn’t going to take place unless the roster gets better. That’s all I’ve been saying from the start but you want to get your thong in a wad.
Lol you’re so off on me it’s hilarious. Kal leaving is the best thing to happen here in a decade.
I haven’t moved the goalpost even once. I’ve been consistent from the start that we need good players. They don’t have to all be 5 stars but we also can’t have a roster full of role players. Williams is the only difference maker on the roster as of now. To have any sort of chance at a good season we need atleast 2 more.
We’re hosting Brea who is a bigger fish than Mahaney. Pope probably conceded Mahaney to UConn to improve our chances with Brea. Win win.

He's only been wrong 2 times. He posted his track record. Dude has only missed 2-3 times.
Dude you have no idea how Travis Perry would do. Stop acting like you are some basketball guru who knows it all. You would have said the same thing about Sheppard this time last year.
okay, guru, you toss Perry into the starting PG role. Gotcha. 😝
You see, I'll let our head coach make that decision, and not pretend I know everything like you. 😁
Trilly is correct about Mahaney asking UK to match UCONN & UK saying no. And it's not because we couldn't, because we have more money available than UCONN. Just setting the record straight
Players are entering the portal every day. Ivy-Curry just decommitted from VT, he seems like a big get for someone.
It was warf2012 I was talking about
A lot of smoke out there that he is coming to UK. Hope he is.
No he won’t. He will be right back under a new screen name if we land any of those guys.

Curious what his offer was? I wouldn’t think he would command that much honestly. Must have not been much of a priority or else he took less because of how good they are right now.
You may want to reread the post to which I responded , Mr. Know Everything, where it was suggested Perry should be the starting PG for next year and the coach focus on securing other positions. 😆
Really wanted Mahaney, but if he made it all about $, then I'm glad he was turned away. This isn't the nba yet.
You replied straight up "no" to a post that simply suggested that Perry start. And I'm not the one claiming to know it all you idiot, that's you. At least get your insults right if you're going to be a pompous ass.
Well, that makes me feel a little better in an odd way. I guess they have the money proportioned out with a plan. Just hope we can get a guard as good or better than him.
Is this Brad Calipari? Anyway, the good news is... Pope doesn't need a bunch of burger boys to have 20 win seasons, or to beat Kansas, Baylor, Iowa State or any other top 25 team, The team he is assembling already has more talent than any team Mark Pope has coached, with peices that fit his coaching style, and he is currently still talking to 29 other transfers, some of which are the best guys in the portal, and hen its all said and done Pope will have 12 guys he can compete with, because he will coach them up, just like he did last year when he walked into Kansas with a bunch of 3 star dudes and handed out losses.
You are 100% right with this. The days of us recruting five 5* freshmen is probably over and that is perfectly fine. We might still take 1 or 2, but I think we have all seen how that works out. Pope will win and win more with far less talent that Cal had. What you have to realize is yes those freshman are uber talented, but the fact is they have not matured or even come close to the potential in college. We have seen that year in and year out with how well our guys do in the NBA. The days of 17-18 year old kids winning big in college just is not there especially with the portal and NIL. You need 4-5 grown ass men starting with game experience and then maybe 1 or 2 uber talented freshman if you want to take them, but they certainly are not needed. If you have watched any college basketball at all the last few years its pretty obvious what is working.
