Wiggins going to Kansas took me by surprise.Wiggins by far. Seemed like he should have been a lock. Mo Bamba was another that seemed like a missing piece.
Not even close , Ralph Sampson.Which recruitments in the past were the biggest disappointments for you after they decided to go elsewhere? I think for me the two that stick out most that I felt invested in were Zion and Shabazz.
We probably would've won the natty that year if we had a shooter like X on the team. This is my pick. Easily.Xavier Henry has to get a mention too
Hansbrough sticks out in my mind. That was devastating.Every power forward in the early to mid 2000's.
Second that..... him and Bowie, give me strength ..... and TurpinNot even close , Ralph Sampson.
That ended this threadNot even close , Ralph Sampson.
Henry didn't even get recruited by us. As soon as cal left to come here he committed to Kansas within days. Seems like I read somewhere that Wall said he didn't want to play with Henry tooXavier Henry has to get a mention too
I would say this one but we won the championship without him so I can say I’d go back and change that if I could.Tracy McGrady for turning pro instead of coming to UK when it was NONE-AND-DONE.
The days leading up to Marques Bolden committing to Duke was the craziest last few days I’d ever seen for a recruitment."The University of Duke"
That one too took the staff by surprise.Not even close , Ralph Sampson.
Or three, lolThat one too took the staff by surprise.
Ole Ralphie might have had a NCAA c'ship in his resume had he came here.
It was worse when he was already there and they still kept loading up on 5 stars. Wright and Deon Thompson were the final straw for me.Hansbrough sticks out in my mind. That was devastating.
Definitely a final 4. Maybe a title even with Cal’s coaching,My biggest regret was Cal’s first year and Meeks went pro…. I had grand visions of what he would have done with that team 😳😳
Mo Bamba for me. Calipari going to all the trouble taking Quade Green because he was going to help deliver his PSA Cardinals teammate....then Cal setting up the lunch with President Clinton in Harlem only for Bamba to choose Shaka Smart and Texas. Not just losing him but who they lost him to. Gross.Wiggins by far. Seemed like he should have been a lock. Mo Bamba was another that seemed like a missing piece.
Never felt UK was even remotely close to landing Zion after the Italy trip with Adidas where he said "Wherever Immanuel Quickley goes, is where I'm going" and then Zion was removed from that 19U roster that Cal had tryout for Team USA team. It was over.I never thought UK had Zion, but I sure as s*** didn't think he would join "the brotherhood".
