Hi guys, long time reader, first time poster. Found this message board halfway into this past season, and have loved all the opinions. Honestly, didn't realize you could post content under the "free" option (thought it was read-only), so I'm happy to be here!
Anyway, I'm a lifelong CATS fan. While I certainly am NOT an insider, and have zero idea where Blackshear is headed, I was a local TV sports reporter in Roanoke VA in a past life before returning to Lexington early 2018. I would get to interview Kerry on a somewhat weekly basis for nearly three seasons, covering most of the VT basketball games in a given season (one of those he was injured, so not as much that season). I'm happy to say he was always extremely respectful, very well spoken, you could tell he really loved playing the game, had a quieter demeanor, and seemed to be just an all around good kid.
One thing I love about most of our guys that play here at UK, is the fact that they truly seem like good young men. I think Cal does a great job of pushing them to give up their own agendas on the court, and gives them plenty of opportunities to give back to those less fortunate off the court. I think KJ would fit every mold that we like to see from our players at UK, and selfishly, it would be really cool to see him in a Kentucky uniform after getting to see him up close back in Blacksburg.
