Good for ware, and happy he found a spot. I hope he kills it. Ware gave everything he had at Kentucky and you can respect that knowing he always played hard. Good luck at nova Lance

Ware commits to Villanova
- Thread starter Dontworryboutit23
- Start date
Personally, even with a short bench, I believe it’s best for all involved. Now, that said, if he balls out and puts up 15/10, Cal’s big arse needs to be keelhauled!
I don't think it's best for us tbh I think we could have really used Ware this upcoming season especially the way things look now. He would have been a good piece to have around all the freshman and would've provided that tough presence inside who doesn't back down.
Good luck to him.He's not the most talented but he always gave it all he had.
So Pitino took a pass on Cal's yard sale...
Villanova has like 20 players, watch one of their home games. They have like 10 players in sweat suits watching and a coach is talking to them about what is happening. Good luck to Lance.
He’s more talented then half the posters here ever gave him credit for. Not NBA talented but college able for sure.
Now go watch him excel at Villanova.
You mean other coaches actually coach and teach and instruct their players? (I am being sarcastic). Just imagine if someone did that with Kentucky’s talent.
Thank you, I was wondering if it was positive enough for stuway and ocornett or not
He wasn’t the most talented, but the kid was all heart. I actually hated to see him leave.
Best of luck to the big guy!

I thought Ware would develop into a good low-post scorer. One of those 8-10 point/ 7-8 rebound PFs a lot of SEC teams have always seemed to keep in stock on their rosters. He just never seemed to develop, and I don't know the reason why (and I'm not going to speculate to fit into some narrative).
I'd bet money they develop Ware into having a basic back to the basket offensive repertoire.
Unfortunately, he was exactly the same player here from his first year to his last.
We can write that off as him not having talent, but you can learn some and develop basic things to score that doesn't take much talent at all.

Waddya talkin bout? Nobody does better after they leave here….pfft. Crazy talk.
Ware doesn't strike me as the typical Villanova big. Don't they usually want their bigs to be able to stretch the floor?
I don't know if their new coach uses the same philosophies as Wright, but they usually have 4 out, 1 in. Eric Dixon is their starter anyway and he did shoot 3s this year, but in the past, they used Ochefu, Spellman, Robinson-Earl mostly inside.
I was (like an idiot) optimistic he would return with such a short roster and tons of minutes currently available. But I always loved his effort and hope he succeeds.
Hopefully Canada can step up and play some mins when 2 of Cal’s 7 man roster get hurt.

Dude is a tough hombre. Wish he hadn't left and I hope he kills it a Nova.

I think Devin Booker, Jamal Murray, and dozens of other highly successful NBA players totally disagree with your nonsense.
Yeah they would have flipping burgers at Mickey D's without Cal.
I really doubt it. He was a decent bench player at best. Good guy to go in a rough it up for a few minutes but there is zero smoothness or constancy to his game. I hope I'm wrong and he has a big season, Cuz I do like him.
He and his coaches did a great job of developing those players. That's why Kentucky players are so much more successful in the NBA than Duke players. This is in spite of the fact that Duke usually on paper has out recruited Kentucky for years.
Agreed. Hated to see him leave. I think we really could’ve used him this season.
I liked Ware. He brought it every game. He had the misfortune of having to backup Oscar for two years and I think he will be missed quite a bit.
Yep, he couldn’t even do a basic drop step without traveling, he always fouled or goal tended on defense. Every once in a while he would get a dunk and make some defensive play, but he was still as raw as his Freshman year. He was tough though. We will miss that.
He’s a good practice body and 10 minute a game type guy. Which we desperately need. He never got the right kinda lineup to play with though I’ll give him that.
Yep, that’s why Cal has won all those championships by developing his players while they are at Kentucky.
It is very hard to win championships in college basketball now. Times have changed. We are not in the 1960's and 70's when a team like UCLA could dominate by cheating. UK has struggled for several years. I believe we may be heading in the right direction.
