Looks like it will most likely be Baylor, unless Cal pulls a rabbit out of the hat. Much rather him go to Baylor than Duke though. Who do the Cats go after now? Knox? Or maybe some 2025 players looking to reclass?
VJ decision day
- Thread starter LXWildcat
- Start date
Truth be told Edwards should come back and get better but no chance. Peterson likely reclasses or portal. Hopefully Richmond is better than expected.
We should be able to afford a nice player out of the transfer portal should be greasing a few palms as we speak.
Last week word was that he was a Duke lock. What’s new that says he’s going to Baylor?
I had a feeling it was going to be Baylor. He is a lot like Ja'Kobe Walter who is playing for Baylor right now.
Check the other thread. Yesterday I think. They are offering more NIL than Duke.
Sucks that this ended up being all about $. Guarantee it’s some shady stuff. Prolly a big wad of cash called NIL.
Remember what Cal said, “If a player wants to talk about NIL, it turns him off” I wonder if that is still the case?
And yet Big Z can't play because of a few hundred $.
Didn’t Florida State just get penalized for promising NIL money? How would this recruitment be different?
He’s not a nail painter
That's rich coming from Calipari, considering he makes almost $10 million dollars a year. If a kid talks nil, Cal should embrace that.
He should be gettng the big bucks from his former players in the nba to pay for players
If you claim he’s getting all this NIL money and Baylor outbid everyone, shouldn’t you know how much he got paid. My point is no one knows anything about how much NIL anyone is getting yet they make these claims with nothing to back it up.
“Supposedly “ Duke still offered the most nil money but Baylor got “close enough “ . He had a better relationship with Baylor staff
Hey I don’t blame Cal a bit I just done believing you should e held hostage by a kid saying I want this much money or else
For all the bragging Calipari does about our NIL La Familia, I don't see the dividends of it yet. We don't have any current cats who make more than half a million.
What the heck is up with this? I thought this was "Kentucky?"

John Calipari: I want these kids to achieve their dreams. It's wrong that we're making money off of their names, but they don't get any compensation for that. Every year in college, is a year they lose career earnings. If you were their parent, what would you want me to do? Hold them back, and then they lose a year of earnings? These kids need to take care of themselves, because no one else is going to look out for them.
Also John Calipari: Don't talk to me about how much you want in NIL earnings.

Ok, buddy. Sure thing. I'm sure he's only getting $150 in NIL to go to Baylor.
Don't be dense.
You have no idea what he’s getting, that’s my point. You’re talking out of your ass and making stuff up. It’s just funny to me how y’all make all of these accusations with nothing to back it up then act like it’s fact.
Baylor out paid everyone.
How much did Baylor pay him?
How am I supposed to know?
😐
Short sighted, let’s get those pennies today. Cal has proven he gets those max contracts in the future……
Bummed UK didn’t get him (we don’t have top tier talent in 2024) but really glad Duke didn’t get him
One of the big reasons we need a different coach.
First of all, I'm not a journalist. I'm an anonymous 44 year old posting on a message board in my sweatpants so I'll make up anything I want thank you very much.
Second, it's called an educated guess, genius. I never said anything was a fact. However, it's not exactly a secret that schools are recruiting with NIL. Not sure why you're pretending they aren't. You're weird, man.
We're not going to have an elite year next year unless we get someone like Peterson at this point. Cal's shown he's not elite with the portal, and he's not elite with the Boogie Flands of the world either.
He needs top 5 picks. I'm disappointed. Cal needs to land Peterson, and badly.

It’s a wonder we can sign anyone with Cal’s attitude toward NIL, which is crazy coming from him. He’s always been a big supporter of paying players. Now he doesn’t want to? Lmao what a hypocrite.
Glad it wasn’t Duke. Now lets get Johnson and Peterson to join next year’s class or at least one of them.
