Per ESPN. YES!!! This means Calipari won't be able to pursue the better SF options in the portal, right? One less competitor. Does this and Billy Richmond eliminate Ark from pursuing Johnell Davis?
Karter Knox to Arkansas
- Thread starter G-PIP
- Start date
How nice it’s going to be, to watch these top freshman brick shots for another team than UK
“It kind of makes sense. He got my big brother to the league; he can make me go to the league.” Yessiree, that is a Cal recruit.
it is not going to matter
Cal will keep recruiting players that he thinks will help
thats good news if anything. but yeah im cool with player news, but no more cal threads, pretty cringe.
He said that? This was my biggest fear with Karter.. his brother was a lazy NBA player who clearly just wanted to bypass college and BE a NBA basketball player, not PLAY basketball.
Didn't really want him when he committed, and glad hes not our problem. He's the perfect example of a guy who is going to struggle all year, have one good game, and then bolt for the draft to go 29th, winning hi team next to nothing.
Not upset about this one at all.
I wasn't super excited about his committment. The only thing he talks about is "the league."

Was one of my least favorite recruits in some time. Not his fault, just seemed like the prototypical Cal recruit we all began to hate. Athletic, not super skilled, couldn’t give a shit less about UK, ready to go pro at earliest opportunity.
Make him apply for a permit before he’s allowed to play in Rupp Arena. I know this is a free country but you can’t just lay bricks anywhere you want to!
Screw Cal and Arkansas. Let's focus on Kentucky.
Be careful. They might lawyer up and S O O I E.
And this is the biggest obstacle Pope has at UK. This stupid "get me to the NBA" nonsense. I mean, get your own ass to the NBA, but win something while you're in college.
This one makes the most sense of all the ex-Cats. Knox had Arkansas on his list when Musselman was the Coach. He was going to go to UofL if Payne kept his job and he was heading to the G-League in all likelihood until he was informed Team Ignite wouldn't exist. So he commits to Cal and gets to play for Cal and Payne at a school he liked prior to all of the moving parts.
Even in his statement today. When asked about why he chose Arkansas, he said because Cal was the guy talking all about “how to make him a pro.” Nothing about team goals, nothing about Arkansas itself.
I’ve had quite enough of that mentality after Cal’s 15 years here. Let Hog fans deal with it now.
Let's get a call back out to Billy Richmond, who couldn't have been thrilled that Cal sort of recruited over him (something else I didn't like when we went after Knox).
Tell Richmond he can play in a better offense, still go toa premier school UK, and he can still leave in a year if he wants.

So y’all didn’t want Knox but welcome some bench guy from BYU and/or a kid from Illinois who couldn’t get more than 10 mins a game, with praise? The spin is getting above and beyond even normal sunshine pumping/homer spin. Not flaming, it’s just kind of weird to watch, respectfully.
Hey, I need your help. I'm trying to figure out your username.
Are the first two words Jack Axx?
It’s more Knox’s attitude and work ethic, or lack thereof. He’s only in college because he has to wait a year to go pro
Granted that last would describe most OADs…
But he has no loyalty to anyone but himself
Respectfully
Who cares?Guy could have an NBA all star team and blow it.He is washed but you guys will have to learn the hard way.
First round exit, regardless……
We talked about Minnesota the whole time tubby was there. We even talked about Tarleton State w Billy G. It’s just how this board operates and it’ll be that way for at least a year or 2
Yup as of now it looks like Z is their best shooter. Alot of teams are gonna go zone against Arkansas.
I meant first round exit of the NIT… 😎
Age and experience. No more wondering what you are getting. Please Pope, no more one year freshmen when there are experienced men in the portal.
No offense to Karter, I'm sure he's a nice kid. But, man, he was the commit I think I had least looked forward to seeing since Cal got here. After being burned out on the revolving door, I swear EVERY single interview I saw with him he mentioned Cal making him a pro. Was just a total non-starter for me.
Good luck and all that but sure am glad I don't have to watch him on our team next year.

Well we only have two players, so I’d agree Z is the best shooter
