If I was going to be top 5-6 in the draft I wouldn't come back so do not blame Sharpe for leaving. We would all take the money if were were in his situation. If I could make a 1 million (or more) a year in payroll/accounting straight out of HS I would have said F college I am out as well.
Let me ask you the same question, do you think Cal recruited Sharpe knowing 100% that he would never play for us?
Who wouldn’t? And if so his handlers can get hit by a bus for being a lying pack of snakes.
Weird ass question to ask to a guy who never even said that. But idk....maybe I wouldn't put that past cal.
I hate what CBB has become. If Sharpe does not play this year and goes to the draft this year Cal is to blame. I don't see how you can not blame Cal. IF this happens it needs to be stopped.
That last sentence pretty much says all you need to know.
If “there was never a plan to play him” this year, and knowing him to be a top 5 prospect, which even the most casual uk fan was probably aware of, and most certainly cal was aware of—then why even bring him here? where’s the value for uk basketball?
I’ll be fine with Sharpe not playing and going to the draft in June.
As long as he takes Cal with him.

Possible. If I was a business that shelled out say 100k and he never played a minute, I’d want someone to post me in the direction of a lawyer so I could sue the hell out of him and his camp.
So if there is any chance the #1 recruit will play for us, why would you not recruit him?
If Cal thought the fans wanted to see Shaedon at the end of the UT game, this come Tuesday at home he’s going to really hear how much the fans what to see him play.
If Shaedon doesn’t play that’s disgusting. Come here, get a Porsche, train/workout, deuces off to the NBA, didn’t even have to play. If Shaedon doesn’t play then every Cal hater that’s ever said something nasty about Cal will be vindicated. UK will literally have been a luxury basketball camp Shaedon was paid to attend for 5 months.
You got to understand what grom is trying to say. He is saying Cal sees himself as the NBA guy. So if he really is that, he would recruit Sharpe just to prove he can land these elite guys again and put them in the league. Now, that's not my viewpoint but that's what grom is saying.
If Sharpe never plays here, Cal should receive 100% of the blame. Dangling the top player in front of the fan base's face, while the kid receives hundreds of thousands from an NIL deal, is not okay.
If the kid plans on going pro this summer, he needs to play this Spring. If he turns pro without playing here, Cal should be let go. Immediately. That's inexcusable and a total misuse of his position.
That’s nice for sharpe, it’s not nice for the businesses that trusted UK Basketball and paid Sharpe, even if they get their money back, once bitten twice shy, why would I ever give money to a ball player again?
let’s see if Cal lands more top 5 players once the NIL money is in the toilet
I don’t blame him a bit.
To add to that, if I could go to KY and get a free Porsche, a lifetime scholarship, all the benefits being a member of KY brings, practice in the Craft Center, get NIL money, get publicity that being at KY gets me, never play a minute and get drafted top five why wouldn’t I?
The real question is why would a program want this? Again I hope he plays this year or this is inexcusable.
I don’t buy it. Not even cal is stupid enough to think he gets credit for sharpe going to the league, no one will.
Cal’s not stupid. he knew sharpe was a lottery pick and that he would probably be eligible for the ‘22 draft.
So, yes.
I wouldn't blame him for leaving, I would blame him for coming here under false pretenses.
If this does play out that he leaves without ever playing a game for UK i hope the fan base turns on Cal.
Hypothetical. And purely Devils advocate. If that happens and we happen to win the title this year. Do you still fire him?
The fact that some of these people believe that shit is hilarious.
Maybe Cal is missing the green room and is desperate to get back in there on draft day. He hasn't been overwhelming it with his bravado since Herro and those guys got drafted.
I’d blame Cal for the culture he has created here. This isn’t happening at Duke, Kansas, UNC, etc.
All of K’s top recruits play from day one.
I'd say no.
A title buys him 5 to 8 more years.
But here's one right back at you: if he misses the Final Four and Sharpe turns pro, do you keep him on the job for as long as he desires, even if it's 7 or 8 more years?
I’ve answered that before. No.
He has until the end of next season to deliver a final four or a championship.
If he did I’m sure theirs a clause saying he would pay back some or all of it once he signs his rookie deal.
Cal will count Sharpe for his earnings/draft pick just like he does for Kanter.
I like how Sharpe is ready to go top 6 in the draft, but some of you don't think he'll be ready to play any minutes this Spring, Hilarious.
All this drama ceases to exist if Cal just plays the kid. If he ends of playing and making a difference no one will care if he bolts for the league.
im not about him using the program though. So play or leave Lexington now

That’s hilarious too, I just thought about it, “neither Kentucky nor Shaedon Sharpe’s camp wanted this to come out, because they knew the speculation that would happen.”
WHAT DO YOU MEAN, YOU MEAN THE SPECULATION THAT YOURE HERE FOR HALF A SEASON AND MIGHT NOT PLAY A MINUTE, THAT KIND OF SPECULATION? THE KIND THAT WOULD KILL ANY POSSIBLE FUTURE NIL DEALS AND MAKE ANYONE THATS ALREADY GIVEN YOU MONEY BLOOD RED SCATHING MAD????
Yeah I wouldn’t want that speculation either if I was being paid to attend the NBA Readiness and Luxury Kentucky Basketball Camp.

Wonder how the guys on the team really feel about this ? Some have been here a number of years busting their butts off and this kid may never play a game and goes leaves at the end of this season.
