Possible 2019 class

[Smashcat]

I like our chances better now with Igiehon with ensuing UL penalties. I think Oscar will be hard to pull from WVU with his connections there. I like the way Cal is focusing on McDaniels. May change my mind tomorrow. But today I could see a 2019 class of:

Maxey - 1/2
Allen - 2/3
McDaniels - tall 3
Whitney - 3/finesse 4
Igiehon - 5
Plus 1 or 2 from Oscar T, Stewart, Wiseman, Hurt and Carey. If Hampton wants to reclassify and join the fun, it won’t hurt my feelings.

 

[BBUK]

I've seen worse recruiting classes...

 

[MWes11]

Is McDaniels a realistic option? Obviously would never count Cal out, but thought the main players in this were SDSU and Texas

 

[gocats44]

Is McDaniels a realistic option?

He is definitely realistic, Igiehon is not though. Id expect him to pop for Louisville pretty soon.

And that's just "dum"....but Oh well...

We better get at least two from that last group, or it’s gonna be an ugly season. Don’t see us returning a single frontcourt player.

I don’t know man. Even if he was a lock, what’s come out in the trial has to make any potential recruit think twice about that school no matter how much a lock he was at one point.

 

[bookerfan66]

I thought AI cancelled a visit from Cal recently?

 

[docholiday51]

I've seen worse recruiting classes...

Yeah,UL's,WKU's,UNC's most of the SEC,Big 10 and,uh................just about everybody else's now that you mention it.

I left out all of Tubby's and Billy Clyde's classes................. cause recruiting just wasn't their game.

I thought the ship had sailed on Igiehon? I thought Cal had pulled away?

If the dude has to think about it Cal should pull away. Dang that's not smart of
Iggy...(Have to call him that in the interim...) Got me thinking of Lenny and Squiggy...

Lenny, Squiggy, and Iggy...

 

[Newcattitudes]

I don't. He will be at UK if and when the other
Bigs choose elsewhere.

 

[BBUK]

Geez you would hope he is smarter than Fred Flintstone...(That is why I tempered messing with him but geez that would be real stupid.)

 

[gocats44]

Bigs choose elsewhere.

I love when people speak in absolutes when talking about recruiting. It is highly unlikely he ever even visits much less plays college basketball here. Louisville has a large lead and if anyone is going to overcome that it is most likely Oregon.

I have no idea. All I was stating is if he has UK and lewisville to choose from and chooses lewisville....dang.

 

[BBUK]

If it is a decision needing to be made...

Let me rephrase "I believe he will be here if the other big 4 don't come to UK.

 

[MbergCat]

Any kid that chooses Louisville at this moment makes me question their intelligence.

Kind of got that "yabba dabba doo" "thang" going on...

I am not pre-judging the kid but IF, then...

 

[St.PatterSoN-54-]

Iggie seems like a good kid. I'd hate to see him ride the ship down at UL.

He does not have UK to chose from.

 

[ConRay9]

I wouldn’t be surprised if a grad transfer pops up at some point either. Dependent on who goes to the draft at least. I think Travis opens the door more for that sort of thing. They won’t get one every year but whenever a mass exodus occurs like next year I think it makes sense and is more likely now.

 

[Wildcat-in-STL]

There isn’t a travis Reid out there for next year.

Jeez people he’s a McDonald’s all American sr from a major conference and school. He’s the best grad transfer of all time for a reason. The vast majority of grad transfers are at best the two UL guys from a
Few years ago...

 

[jace2012]

Something that Cal doesn't do alot of, maybe we go the juco route. I thought he recently checked in on one but can't remember the name.

Maybe for a practice body.. we’re in trouble if we need a juco as a starter

Who are those dorks lol

 

[BBUK]

Oh what the young have missed. Those two are the icon's of Dork.... Laverne and Shirley regulars...

 

[catben]

Who are those dorks lol

Are you too young to remember Laverne & Shirley? Those 2(Lenny and Squiggy) were characters on that show.

I'd go so far as to call them iconic as far as dorks go...

 

[BBUK]

Way past Ralph Malph and Potsie......(Man I really got BleedingBlue googling now.)

Ole Potsie, the classic Dren....but...Joanie's gone now...

Lenny was a truly unlikeable character on Better Call Saul.

 

[FrankUnderwood]

He is definitely realistic, Igiehon is not though. Id expect him to pop for Louisville pretty soon.

Even with SEVERE penalties/ death penalty coming?

I know we need bigs, but I'd take McDaneils right now over any of the bigs if given the choice. He'd give UK more versatility and I agree with your premise that putting Maxey/Whitney/McDaniels next to a rebounding big would make UK pretty competitive.

 

[Tyblue22]

I'd rather have a class with more athletic 6'-8" or 6'-9" guys than typical 7 foot bigs. If I remember correctly, Villanova did just fine on some tiles without typical bigs.

I think our class will be 8-9 man deep at least so I will go with

Maxey - pg
A player to be named later - SG
Allen - SF/SG
Whitney - SF
Another Guard to be named later
Mcdaniel - Stretch 4
Wiseman - Center
Stewart - PF
One more big from the Oscar , Igehion, Carey others mix ( I bet there are 1-2 names we dont even know now)

 

[Yayaandbono]

Last time
Who we already got

Plus
Stewart Carey brooks

Or will be

Wiseman Carey Hampton

Waiting to hear about mcdaniels and have a few feelers out. I’m guessing he’s in play if cal goes out to visit him. I think last visit was to see if he had a problem joining this player xxxxxx
One of those two scenarios

Relax people 2019 class will be up there as one of the bests

I wasn’t saying it’d be a Reid Travis-like grad transfer whenever they pursue one. That’s ridiculous to assume that’s what I meant. It’s not wrong to say they may, and probably will, find role players via the grad transfer route.
