Quentin Grimes on Kentucky

I think this ends up being a 3 man class. Quickley, Barrett or Zion, and Shittu
No way UK only signs 3. 4 is minimum and probably will be 5.
We only have 11 players on scholarship this year and we'll lose a minimum of 3, as many as 5.
Diallo, Knox, Vanderbilt I feel are sure things to leave. I think PJ is a 2 yr guy and Richards is iffy as is Wenyen.

I agree except I see PJ gone as well.
I was at fantasy camp a couple weeks and watched a 2 hour scrimmage.
Pj is all of 6'8" 240 and dunked on several guys. Kinda feel like Wenyen was getting picked on that day as PJ dunked over the top of him a few times.
He has a great stroke from 3 and just gets after it. He has that alpha dog in him.
Pj, vando and Knox have me as excited as any 3 guys cal has signed.

How many schollies does KU have? They've gotta save a few for incoming transfers.
Have 1 not being used now. Graham & Mykhailiuk exhaust elig. Newman "a lock" to leave early. Most think Azubuike's close to "a lock".

That would be 5 there. Preston & Vick a bit more uncertain.

Number anywhere between 4 - 7.

Did fill one of those with the DeSousa commit.
 
They can offer 2 scholarships right now. Subject to change if they have tranfers or early entries but for right now they have 11 scholarships taken for next year including there 1 2018 commit.

We have one open now. We lose Newman, Graham and Svi next year (that is now 4), we expect to lose Udoka and Preston (now up to 6).
 
Because he makes the mistake in dribbling in his videos. Plus people think 6'7 is small. Its not huge, but at 240 pounds with a 92" vertical, he plays big enough to be a college 4. And hell, with the way the NBA is trending, he can do it in the NBA too with multi dimensional guys like draymond green.

92" vertical.... dang that is skying... you sure about that Catzman? :joy::stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye::joy:

Not so sure about Newman. He wasn't suppose to be in college but one year, now he is in his third year.

Kind of sounds like he is on the Mykhailiuk/Graham/Mason "he's leaving early" plan.

Azubuike leaving is questionable as well. Doesn't exactly have a NBA physique. He better play like Charles Barkely part deux if he wants to make an NBA roster.

Preston looks like the most NBA ready guy on the team. Has some good skill for his size. If he was UK, he would be OAD for sure. If he's not at KU, then Self probably held him back.

I think KU has Moore, Newman or Vick, Lawson, Lawson, and Azubuike as starters next season.

Wow, I thought he was a pudgy dude. I thought the rub on him was his conditioning. I stand corrected.

No. He's built like a cement shithouse. Always has been. He's always been a huge, powerful, strong and athletic low block player but just very very raw offensively (could never score outside dunks). They tend to teach ya how to do those things in college.

Thanks for the info. I must have had him confused with someone else. He didn't play much last year, if memory serves.
