By so many Kansas players following him on twitter expect a visit.
SIAP Lanier to UT
- Thread starter RunninRichie
- Start date
Now I will say this, they absolutely do need to get one of Robinson or poplar, or a draft guy who comes back. They need somebody, but it isn’t doom and gloom end of the world stuff.
Oh I wouldn't be shocked at all if he did.
I'm curious as to what he expects to find at KU as loaded as they are but all we can do is make our pitch to him.
Hunter dicksinon is the only one I’ve seen. Kentucky has a a really good shot to get Robinson if he comes back
Bass seems to think it's funny I said Robinson will visit Kansas but Trilly also said they are after him hard.
For the record, BYU was biggest offer on the table. Well into 7 figures, UK low 7 figures, UT high 6 figures.
No argument here at all. We have 11 currently. We need to finish the roster off by adding solid players. Robinson and Poplar fit the bill.
Out of curiosity, I wonder why we didn't pursue JT Toppin or Tazarian White...if I spelled his name wrong I apologize
Would you take BYU's roster or ours right now if you could choose? Be honest.
Also, you pulled those numbers out of your ass. You don't know that and they're definitely not accurate.
Wouldn’t shock me if they did at all. The recent news with Robinson is very heavy UK and the draft. It’s coming from draft people and BYU people thinking he is Kentucky bound.
No clue, I like toppin, he can’t shoot but he plays extremely hard. If Jaylen wells comes back I want Kentucky to go after him, he is better than laneir, poplar, and Robinson. The white guy I honestly have no clue on him. But let’s get Robinson or poplar or both and let’s get this team locked down.
That's straight from the mouth of his buddy Jakobi (who got 1.2 over 2 years to go to Maryland). They played AAU together.
Same numbers were reported by writers on volquest this morning
I had a feeling this is how it was going to go once a Vols visit was 100% confirmed. We offered more money and he still chose them. We just couldn’t overcome an unknown coaching commodity against a HOF coach. From what I’ve read, Barnes helping turn Knecht into a lottery pick was huge in this one.
Hopefully next year these kids will have a change of heart once it’s known if Pope can coach at this level.

I agree about Wells I'd love to get him but I've heard nothing about any interest in us on his part. He's a really good player.
He wouldn't have started. oweh will
Oweh is a better player than Lanier.
I trust Jakobi who texts with him regularly, not VQ. Just stating they were told correctly according to their report.
Wish he wouldn't have wasted our time. It takes a big ego to say "go ahead, entertain me", knowing DAMN WELL that you're going to say no. Hope he gets crushed when we meet.
We'll greet the clown when we see him. Maybe he'll forget to get a haircut, and won't see what's coming.
Joe Adams is really confident we get Robinson. Damnit man I really wanted Robinson. Adams lock is the curse of the century
if only joe adams ever had good info id feel good about that.....i think general consensus is we are in good shape with robinson....dont need fake insider to be told that
He's a good player, he chose UT over us and BYU but reality is it was UT from the start. I'm not worried about him when we play UT.
Put a lock down defender on him and make him earn everything. He's not at North Florida now.
Same, it’s just Adams is wrong almost everytime. Still think Kentucky gets Robinson or poplar
Please don’t be a person that brings nonsense and insults into the conversation. It only belittles you and insults the people reading your post.
We both missed on him and it’s fine. We took a shot at a player from Tennessee who’s been going back there since last season.
At the same time the kid is not like Dalton, who I was highly pissed off we didn’t go after last year. We probably would have had him too, but our inept coach didn’t even look his way because of Wagner.
This isn’t a huge blow Lanier is not a superstar player. A simple look at the teams he torched last season shows it. I think he’ll be a good player for UT not great, we need Robinson though. Of Tennessee is expecting another Dalton Knecht then good luck with that because that’s not what Lanier is.

We offered this kid 7 figures and still couldn’t convince him to come here?? That does not bode well at all.
Not putting him down at all because he is from North Florida. He blowed up last season compared to what he had done at North Florida prior to last season.
As for Reeves, he played at Illinois State which if I'm correct is in the Missouri Valley conference which is a better conference.
Lanier is good, I'm sure we are going to see just how good...or if it was a dodged bullet.
You realize we have a guy from Drexel as our starting center?
Lanier is good and it is a miss, but if they Robinson or poplar or whoever it’s not a huge miss
