Per Sisk: Reed Bailey

Every school you mentioned has a bigger NIL budget than we do. All of them. And most of the players you mention weren't commanding starter money on the open market. That's why they accepted the roles they did.

Every statement you just made is incorrect.

You have absolutely no idea, evidence or facts about what any of those players I listed were asking for in NIL, and CBS posted an article just this past fall saying that coaches in the sport ranked us 4th in terms of NIL- the only school I mentioned that ranked higher was Kansas. Not Alabama or Duke.

And there is no evidence of what those guys were asking for money-wise on the NIL market, and there is zero evidence what this Davidson kid is asking for. You just made that up.

Bailey, lendenborg, Wilkerson, agbim, Thornton, ewin, Magee, cliff. Are all good fits for our system. Add Braden smith as well, he fits in any system

Braden Smith would be a shocker...don’t see it happening. He is actually a Purdue fan.

 

[Tampa_cat54]

As long as we are getting guys with more than 1 year left I am thrilled. This was a one year experiment but definitely want more Oweh like transfers and less of the rest moving forward.

Agreed! Would be awesome to have at least 5-6 carry-overs every year that are the caliber of an Oweh

There's been weird smoke about him for a couple months, even Jack Pilgrim and J Kyle Mann speculated and insinuated and heavily hinted at Braden Smith in their interview back in February. Seems there is something there. Might not materialize, but perhaps money talks.

I think dent has a much better chance of happening g

I'm not going to engage you in a debate because I can see that would be a waste of my time and energy, but you proved yourself that those schools have bigger NIL budgets than we do quite eloquently (completely by accident of course) by illustrating who they have coming off their bench, and all I have to do is contrast that with who we have coming off ours.

Along with Hannes Steinbach.

First time I’ve really heard this name.

Rightttt because those guys were at their school and working the portal since January (backchannels), and our staff had 3 weeks to put together an entire team and had to get guys to buy-in to a product they had never seen before.

Using your brain is free.

Again, you just make statements based on zero facts, just whatever supports your opinion.

No comments about Saint-Supery? That is a cool basketball name. I mean, it's not Xree Hipp or Scientific Mapp but it's still cool.

[Myth Buster51]

Damon’s kid?

 

[TOMCATS1990]

I keep seeing people make this mistake. These guys who are transferring are not transferring to be bench players. Very few guys are going to be willing to accept that role.

These guys are transferring to get paid.

You are technically correct .
The split however varies from school to school.
Since UK is THE basketball school, the basketball team will get a larger percentage split than our other league opponents.
The football first guys on the Lair have already been bitching about this.
Kentucky football doesn't recruit in the five star world like Bama,Georgia and LSU do.
Takes a hell of a lot more money to build a top 5 football recruiting class.

The 3PT% is misleading because he doesn't really shoot many threes. He averages 1.3 attempts per game.

The rebounding numbers are a little concerning too considering his size vs. the competition.

Andrew Carr..... 4.8 rebs a game.

That is what I was saying a couple months ago when his name popped up on here and people were drooling over his 45% from 3, and I then pointed out that he had only attempted 16.

At UK. Because our offense keeps him on the perimeter more than did WF. At WF last year he was 6.8.

this type of information is great.......

keep it coming

 

[Catzman]

Andrew Carr..... 4.8 rebs a game.

Not to mention his rebounding took a huge dip post back injury. Before that he was definitely good for 7 or 8 a game. Not Oscar Tschibwe by any means, but his numbers don't tell the whole story.

 

[PopesReignOverCardinals]

Andrew Carr..... 4.8 rebs a game.

Yeah, exactly. And we were not a great rebounding team this season.
