Returning PPG

[UKFAN4L]

Obviously no one is returning to UK, but has anyone dug up how many points per game we have coming in from transfers from their previous schools?

It's most likely over 70. Garrison and butler averaged 7.5 and 9 something. The other 5 over 10 ppg.

Wonder how many teams have had 0 production return from their previous team? Especially one stocked with freshman?

That will definitely go up in Pope’s offensive system!

That will definitely go up in Pope’s offensive system!

Not to mention the 3 frosh will contribute as well.

It's not just Pope's system that will increase their numbers, but their being surrounded by better players all around will make them better as well. Especially if defenses were focusing on these guys individually, trying to take their game away from them because the other players on the team weren't as good.

I think that's especially true for Amari WIlliams and Koby Brea. Possibly for Butler, Carr and Oweh as well, but they were on pretty good teams. Kriisa was also on a horrible West Virginia team. I can only imagine his numbers go up across the board with better players around him. Garrison is oneo f the younger players, so his numbers should ratchet up just by gaining experience.

I don’t think we get both Lanier and Robinson
Minutes will be getting lean if both are added.
Points wise I hope we can average 80 plus

What we’re bringing in is points per minute, and generally quite high points per minute. From guys who are generally going to be playing more minutes here than where they came from. So expect that 76 ppg projection number to go up considerably.

It’s more than usual for Kentucky with anyone who has a pulse going pro.

If we get Lanier, we'll be north of 80 ppg.

Pope's BYU team average 81/game last year, and we'll have better players at every position than they did, with the exception of perhaps small forward (Robinson).

Thanks for that breakdown. Sure looks like we have the firepower to keep up with anyone, especially when you add the freshmen contributions and an improved defense. It will definitely be interesting.
