Monk or Alkins!!
- Thread starter UKDC80
- Start date
This might make worst thread of the year nominee still.
Just asking a question...but imo they both have there own skill sets that make them good players, but you do not see a player with monks shooting or athletic ability every day..
Monk. Easy. Alkins is great but Monk would have probably been #2 behind Simmons in the 15 class.

Considering that Monk has signed with UK, and that he's rated ahead of Alkins by EVERY SINGLE SCOUT IN THE WORLD, this doesn't quite compute as a legit question.
But anyway, the answer is that Monk is a supremely gifted athlete. He's one of those players where you legitimately worry that he might cut his forehead on the rim. And he's just as good a shooter as Alkins, maybe even better. Alkins is a great prospect, but Monk is the type of guy who can make other elite athletes look ordinary.

Monk is a high flying athlete that can score from deep. I wouldn't trade him for any other recruit.
Alkins could play the 3 for us, should he pick UK. He's 6-5 210. Would certainly be interesting.

Thank you. They are both so gifted. I would take Monk also, but admit Alkins has a unique skill set and physical attributes that I believe will thrive in college
A lot of stiff competition here lately. There are enough bad takes on here to have a Rafters Razzies every year

We aren't even recruiting him anymore according to the people who would know , despite what the kid might say . Why would we be really as Alkins and Monk would never play for the same school . And Monk is alot better then Alkins . But Alkins is the 4th best guard in the class and a top 15 player whoever gets him is getting a physical beast.
It's not the comparison but choosing between a signed player and another player is no way to support who's in the BBN already . Seems harmless but just doesn't feel right and no good can come of it really .
Gotta go with the 'Buttel on that one. Seems like every time he played, the Cats won by 20-30 points.
Stats don't lie.
Sam Malone probably has the biggest average margin of victory in UK history. I'll take him.Gotta go with the 'Buttel on that one. Seems like every time he played, the Cats won by 20-30 points.

I see no problem with the question. I love Alkins game. But, yes I would choose Monk but not by much. Just depends on what kind of guard you prefer. If you like the bigger, more physical guard, Alkins is your guy. If you like the slasher, more of a finesse player, Monk is your guy. Both can shoot the ball well, but slight edge to Monk in that dept. If we were to somehow add Alkins, it would be the best class in the history of recruiting and almost certainly 5 freshman would start. Would be fun.
Well the one who can shoot the ball is Monk... Alkins is on the level of Eric Bledsoe or M. Teague shooting the ball. He is can get streaky hot like the other night but isnt known for shooting.
Honestly I would have said Alkins several months ago because I didn't know we were in such good of a position to land Monk, I thought we were out of the race. Monk is the top SG in the class and some say the most explosive they've seen in a while and is deadly from three....and is said to have limitless range and also off the charts athleticism. So Monk and its not close.
