The candidates are: Brown, Ingram, Diallo, Newman, Maker, Murray, Mulder.

My ranking is:
1- Ingram
2-Diallo
3-Brown
4 Murray (I would move him up if we got Ingram or Diallo)
5-Mulder
6-Maker
7-Newman (I just don't think he is a team-guy)
 
1. Ingram- Stud, not happening
2. Diallo- essentially #1 because Ingram isn't coming
3. Brown - I feel like we'd have heard something by now
4. Murray - quietly becoming my number 1 want
5. Thon- the second semester would be odd, but kid has skills
6. Newman- was my #1, but Miss St is the destination
7. Mulder- I would like to see what this kid has. Could be a nice guy off the bench.
 
After watching more of the Murray video's he may have moved into my #1 want. Kid can flat out play
 
1. Murray- best guard I saw by far this spring
2. Brown- we haven't had a prototypical SF since MKG
3. Ingram- another true SF and a great shooter as well
4. Diallo- love the kid, not the necessity the first three are but just as good
5. Mulder- fills a need, a shooter is a shooter, will get plenty of looks with our dual-PG lineups
6. Maker- I just can't see him contributing much for one semester on campus

* I didn't include Newman as he's gone
 
1) Newman or Murray- One of these two is a must get. An absolute must. We have to have a big time scoring Guard.
2) Ingram- Kid's just a stud.
3) Diallo - We need that high motor big who brings toughness and intensity. Plus his shot blocking ability.
4) Brown- Still like Ingram better though.
5) Mulder- We need a lights out 3pt shooter.
6) Maker- I'm up in the air on him. But assuming we get Diallo we don't even need him.

With all that said, I think we'll end up with Murray, Diallo, and Mulder, which will be awesome. But I'm hoping Cal uses the any means necessary philosophy to land Ingram.
 
1. Diallo (was Murray/Newman but after the McDonalds and Jordan.... DAMN)
2. Murray
3. Newman
4. Ingram
5. Brown
6. Mulder
 
Tim Tebow was asked about switching positions "for the team" and said no. He wants to play QB. No one ever blasted him for not being a team player.


Newman somehow isn't a team player? Based on?

Brown
Newman
Diallo
Ingram
Murray
Mulder
 
JESSICA ALBA
MARION COTILLARD
Penelope Cruz
Mila Kunis
Natalie Portman for bench depth

I do not have a problem with platooning. All of them deserve some valuable minutes.
 
1 - Murray - need shooters badly

2 - Diallo - love his motor and size

3 - Mulder - putting him above others as I'm trying to be realistic of who we have the best chances with

4 - Ingram - super athlete/scorer, etc. but think he is headed elsewhere

5 - Newman - great player, no doubt, but also feel he's not coming to UK

6 - Brown - love to have him but there has been indications he's not heading our way either

7 - Maker - maybe I've bought too much into the negatives about him recently

Now, if I felt we had better chances with 4 through 6, I would raise them higher on the list but would be happy with the first 3 if we can get all of them too.
 
Ingram
murray
diallo
brown
maker

I won't include Mulder or Newman since both are decided and I wouldn't rank them unbiased
 
1)Murray or Newman(need a shooter, looks like a long shot on Newman tho)
2)Diallo
3)Brown
4)Ingram
5)Mulder
6)Maker

I think we get Murray, Diallo, and Mulder, with those 3 added I really like our chances at winning #9.
 
Whoever commits first! Just want to see the final pieces of the puzzle fall into space. Thinking Mulder and Diallo in that order most likely from what I have read to commit! Get those two we are good. Anything more is gravy! Ingram or Murray in addition would be totally huge but not even sure Murray will reclassify.
 
Who I want
1. Brown
2. Newman
3. Murray
4. Diallo

What I expect
1. Diallo
2. Murray
3. Brown - think we're right there. Only thing holding him back is Adidas. which may or may not be the deciding factor.
4.Newman - isn't coming
 
The candidates are: Brown, Ingram, Diallo, Newman, Maker, Murray, Mulder.

My ranking is:
1- Ingram
2-Diallo
3-Brown
4 Murray (I would move him up if we got Ingram or Diallo)
5-Mulder
6-Maker
7-Newman (I just don't think he is a team-guy)
1-Diallo 2-Murray 3-Mulder 4-Maker don't want Brown-can't shoot
 
1. Murray
2. Diallo
3. Mulder

Don't care about Newman, Ingram or Brown because they most likely aren't coming here.

Maker? I'm OK with it but I think he is too raw to help us for the one season he's gonna spend in college. His development will be by an NBA franchise that invests in him.
 
Murray, Maker and Mulder. No way in hell you turn Maker away because hes "raw" If he wants to show up in January. If we got the open scholly and hes leaving after one semester you take him and be damn thankful! I think everybody else is a long shot at this point.
 
1. Murray- we need shooting/scoring on the perimeter.
2. Diallo- love his motor.
3. Ingram- great size and skill on the wing.
4. Brown- good size on the wing.
5. Maker- love his skillset for a big.
 
Simmons
Skal
Ingram
Kennard
Briscoe

This five could put some points on the board...
 
Brown - immediate impact player. Physically ready for D1
Diallo - has a motor like MKG
Murray - best skilled offensive guard if Newman is headed to MSU
