More Reeves Updates- this A.M.

And said guy was the reason they won the game before that against providence. All four of those teams would take reeves any day of the week
I really don't understand anyone not wanting Reeves back for you all. I get it if he is like 5th or 6th option, but I think that's far from the case. Every single year there are freshmen coming into power schools that don't live up to their billing, and with the numbers of players on your roster, I would absolutely be wanting Reeves back.
 
I’ve been posting for years and years and had thousands of messages. Accurately given insight on recruits since my information materialized in 2017. Ask others.
For one thing, you are a liar, point blank, period. Where are you "hearing" your info ? You haven't heard shit, just running off at the mouth trying to stir shit. Booster, you probably haven't even had a booster shot much less be a booster. I have never understood why idiots like you like to do stupid shit like this. Are you 12 ?

I don't think a W versus Providence and another L to K State are the standards we want to be setting for Kentucky basketball. At least that's not what I expect from the "gold standard".
If Reeves were a game-changer he would have already been gone to the NBA. He's a good college player and that's it.

He also was the one of the main reasons Kentucky turner there season around. Good basketball teams need players like reeves
 
It is funny to hear that it looks like Reeves will commit tomorrow. He is still officially with Kentucky so it is basically not NBA but back to UK. I know its not a big deal but everyone is making it sound like we are getting this big-time commit like a Dickinson, Kaluma, or Nelson. I am not as worried at the 1-3 positions as the PF and Center. Hopefully Burks comes in and is one of the Freshman that everyone overlooked with scoring in double digits at OTE and before that at Hillcrest Southern California Academy (California). Burks in his full 40-game schedule for Hillcrest this season averaged 28.2 points per game and connected on 41% from 3-point range. At OTE Burks scored 27 and 9 but shot 27% from 3 unlike at Hillcrest in 40 games shooting 41% from 3.

I thought Joey Hart being a 3-4 year player would still come to UK even if Reeves decides to come back to UK. This year having Reeves back to go with Sheppard, Wagner, Edwards, and if Hart that would be multiple 3-point shooters that we could bring in if say Reeves is having an offnight shooting like in the KSU Tourney game. I am more concerned at the 4 and 5 with having Bradshaw/Burks and Ugo/Cyril if he commits at the 4 and 5. If we could have grabbed just one from Nelson, Dickinson, Kaluma, and the other PF's then if Reeves is back that would have put UK in Top 5 next season. Why not go after Louisiana 6'11 Jordan Brown in his last 14 games he averaged 21 and 11? Brown scored 16 and 7 vs. UT in 1st round NCAA Tourney 3-point loss to UT.

Reeves tomorrow is hinted I don’t know or think it’s for certain it happens. I agree on Jordan brown, atleast reach out, maybe they have
 
They would love a guy to cost them against little k state?
K-State went on to beat Michigan State, so I'm not sure what you mean by "little K-state" they're a power 5 program.

Also, Duke got smoked by Tennessee, a team we swept. Whitehead had 8 points, Lively had 0, aren't both players coming back to duke?

Nah both of those guys are NBA draft destined. They have everyone else coming back.
 
Who’s the source?
I explained above - another booster is close to someone on the team. I’m not at liberty to say more than that. Wish I could so I wouldn’t be attacked relentlessly here. It’s been right a lot over the last 6 years even when the media was wrong.

Why does their NBA draft potential matter when we're talking about how badly those players played in a loss?

Who g a s about the NBA when we're talking about college players?

The bottom line is, those two duke guys stunk it up against Tennessee and lost in the 2nd round, just like we did and duke brought them back with open arms.

Without looking, I bet Reeves has better stats than those two guys in some, or most categories, but we have people saying duke, KU, uNC etc… wouldn't take Reeves in a heartbeat? That's just not true.

I don't even know why I'm responding to you. You’re a troll that's just trying to stir shit up.

Nobody is buying what you're selling. This post should just about do it for anyone that was hanging on. You don't know shit.

Dickinson is way better than that Nelson kid some of you keep obsessing over. Reeves averaged 14 at a power 5 and that Nelson kid won't come close to that this season. Doubt kalima does as well n big 12 either.

What is with your anger and vitriol? I simply said they didn’t come back to Duke when you said they are back. I said they moved on. Jeeez. Take a deep breath. Life is too short to live with a hair pin trigger, my friend.

Seems to me like you're injecting anger into my post, I'm not angry at all and you might want to check Duke's roster again. Dereck Lively is on it. Whitehead is going to the draft, but my point is, even though he didn’t play up to expectations, you better believe duke would take him back in a second.

Duke wouldn't allow a guy to keep shooting that many misses. When was the last time a duke player shoot 1-15 against a team? Go back think the man shot 1-15 open looks against k state a little guard team.

Our entire 2010 team shot 2-32 in the wva loss, does that mean you wouldn’t want John Wall back?
Do you honestly think Reeves was just playing me-ball? You don't think Cal kept telling him to keep shooting?
Cal told BJ Boston to keep shooting the entire 2021 season, seems to be a common denominator. Can you figure out who that is?

I truly don’t believe Reeves will be back. But I do hope I’m wrong. So often this offseason the media and rumors have been dead wrong. But I’m not getting excited about something that I don’t think will happen.

But, I sure hope I’m wrong lol

for me, it's just all of the bs drama regarding Reeves. He must hold a higher opinion of himself than others. He did this same crap before he committed to UK from Ill St. All of the back & forth crap just gets old.

Not sure about the other Duke player, but Lively is still in the draft

But good college players are what we want, right? I assume by “game changers” you’re referring to an All-American type player (or at least All-Conference) - and at UK we should often have one of those. But the type of guys that can carry a team are not generally (if ever) going to be found coming out of high school. Complimentary pieces – Yes, but not guys to hitch your wagon to.

The OAD freshman may be potential game changers, but they’re not at UK long enough for that potential qualifier to be dropped. Moreover, I don’t think many of those 5-stars are even UK level starters their freshmen season. If UK is going to be in the conversation for a championship run I believe that they have to have good college players, not potential game changers.

Cal didn't get talent for 4 years. We had terrible guards for years. Quickly and maxey were the last good ones. But obviously we not talking about point guards tyty and Wallace were very good.

You compare a guy that can't get drafted to the 2010 team? Unbelievable.
 
It’s possible Reeves waits till August . What if something happens and he doesn’t graduate ? UK is his only D-1 option . Don’t want to burn that bridge till you’re cleared

Call Michael Scott. He's great at team building. He did it ar Dunder Mifflin and at Space Force. He can do it at UK.
Throw wrenches at them during practice. That always works.

I would like to see UK do something special with the NIL: increase the NIL each year based on player retention of scholarship players.

Guys like Edwards obviously can get the most money, but for guys like Hart and Burks, UK could incentivize player retention.

Start a guy like Hart off at around $75,000 a year. But give him a 50% increase each year he returns. So he's making $100,000 in year 2, $150,000 in year 3, and $225,000 in year 4.

That way, even the role players have a reason to come back instead of transferring.
 
It seems like if reeves was gonna stay they will announce it this week. If he knows he is getting the most money here and also going to get a big role, but apparently not a mega leadership role, then no reason to hold this up.
BBN needs some good news. Reeves returning would obviously be that, in that it would solidify our guard/wing corps as the best in the nation next year.

Then the attention could turn to the front court and getting Cyril to reclass.

There was one idiot on here (I won't name names) who kept saying he sucked simply because he went to Illinois St not a P5 school.

Today was the intial period where they said reeves would announce he is back, if goes past today, then you have to wonder how true these rumours were/are
