Good story by Carino. Sommerville's father played pro ball with T.J. Thompson and stayed in touch...

Amazing class. Welcome Latham

 

[Njcanesfan]

I honestly can’t even imagine what Pike can do with 4/5 star kids. Look at what he’s done with unranked and 3 star kids. What a time to be a fan!

I love that we’re being back Righteous Gemstones gifs

[ScarletKid2008]

Wow. Add Harper to this mix and you’re talking about stuff of legends potentially in 2024 and beyond

 

[RU Mike73]

Wowzers. Welcome Lathan.

 

[Knight Ed_rivals]

A skilled big is an important part of the Natty puzzle Pike is putting together,

 

[cubuffsdoug_rivals]

Damn you, Pike. When will you improve the recruiting around here?

Let's not forget his low ceiling as a head coach. (haha)

Is it too soon for me to buy tickets to the 2025 East Regional in Newark?

 

[RUChoppin]

Welcome to the Banks, Mr. Sommerville!

 

[gigantor1024]

Who’s next

 

[kupuna133]

Kid has nice soft touch on jumpers and his footwork is advanced for his age and size.

 

[MADHAT1]

:WooHoo:

 

[S.W.A.I.N]

What a freaking class this is going to be. Pike for President.

 

[Willow88!]

He goes strong to the basket, uses his body & makes his layups..... and is a big kid !! gotta like all those attributes....

 

[LETSGORU91_]

Damn you, Pike. When will you improve the recruiting around here?

He will improve when he gets Harper.

 

[hoquat63]

Damn you, Pike. When will you improve the recruiting around here?

Think what he could do if he want sitting on his hands

Inside game reminds me of Purdue’s Trevion Williams. Sommerville looks to have a more versatile outside game than TW.

Yea that's a comp being discussed on premium

The one clip where he goes between his legs a few times into a sweet post move is very trevion-esque

What a freaking class this is going to be. Pike for President.

In checking out the Rivals recruiting rankings I couldn't help but notice that Kentucky has the #3, #4, #5, and #7 ranked prospects in the 2023 class.
Two questions come to mind:
1. Is that the highest rated class ever ?
2. How much did it cost Kentucky to put together that group ?

 

[Mr Magoo_rivals90743]

Really wanted this kid. Not the usual “project” that we get. He’s very skilled.

 

[RUONTHERISE]

Nice. Welcome to the banks Mr. Somerville!

 

[BillyC80]

Love the momentum building for RU!
