If Williams is worried about being robbed of playing time by a younger, less proven player, then PROFESSIONAL SPORTS aren’t for him.

I didn't see Sisk's name when I posted but just the same, given the recent crappy record of the internet "experts" I'll wait for the decision to be announced officially before I get worked up about it.
On April 28 Andre Carr committed to Uk
On 29 Amari was on the podcast saying how crazy it is to be at Kentucky.
On April 30 , Brandon Garrison committed to Kentucky.
IF this is true , we will find out in few hours , when the deadline to enter transfer portal expires, Has Amari signed the papers to Kentucky yet?

I would hate to lose Williams, but this is not a good look for him. He just signed and now he's wanting out because we got some other good interior players? It's called a TEAM man! We need players and you gotta know some competition is coming. That's what makes you better. If you're determined to play with a particular guy, go help us get him. If you're afraid of the competition and jealous about NIL money, it's just a bad look. We're ready to support this guy, so I hope these rumors turn out to be a tempest in a teapot.
This is exactly the kind of thing Pope does not want I'm sure, the players know where he stands, and all of this stuff should have been talked about and thought out thoroughly before now if it's true. I'm sure we will know shortly if it is or not.
Probably right, weird times with agents tied to so many college players now. I will let it play out, but seems like a short sighted move on their part. Maybe someone offers more upfront money, but if the guy is as good as advertised; I'd have to think he'd have plenty of opportunities to make more money in Lex as the season progresses
This is exactly why Cal was starting Justin and DJ last season. He made promises and didn't want to go back on them. If they had any inkling they would be competing for time, they wouldn't have been here.
There has to be a rule against entering the portal twice in the same cycle. That's absurd, and someone needs to make sure once they sign in a transfer cycle, they're done. This agent steering/shopping BS is going to get way out of hand. And what if coaches and NIL GMs decide to have a player in the portal fake a commitment to a rival school just to get that rival school to stop recruiting that position, then last-minute pull it and transfer to the other school that orchestrated the entire scam?
Ethics are out the window and I will 100% guarantee that this will happen, if it isn't already, if the portal rules allow unlimited portal entrances in a single cycle.
He wouldn't have to re-enter the portal, he's just committed. It's not official until he signs the paperwork.
Not true at all. These "Insiders" are wrong all the time. Heck Matt Jones said there was like a 90% chance that the UK coach would be Hurley, Drew, or Donovan. And Trilly was completely wrong. And the posters that post for money on this board were wrong. Everyone's just trying to guess and use clickbait to try to make as much money as possible. And I'm not saying that these guys are just posting nonsense however if you have ever played the telephone game or heard rumors in highschool you know how fast rumors can get out of hand and how words can get twisted or misheard.
This could be the future unfortunately. Teams are going to be relying on the portal more and more, and with basically no rules anymore, kids can change their minds and bolt at the drop of a hat, leaving the team SOL. Agents are just about getting that green for their clients and themselves.
He did sign the paper work, this school announced he has signed
I hope this isn't true because it won't be a good look at all for that kid.
I thought Williams had signed? If he has signed and wants out, does UK have to release him?
Forgive my ignorance here. I am new to this landscape.

This would look bad on Amari if true.
Another article about how he would fit at Kentucky and some limitations.

They don’t have to but you also don’t want a player on the team that doesn’t want to be here
Didn't he also say it could just be a rumor?
Trilly has been wrong twice out of 113 predictions. Matt Jones is a hack. Also, you have no idea if it's true at all.
If he’s scared of competition from a sophomore, then he probably isn’t the right guy.
That's the issue....bunch of pansies at times (if true). My 11 year old doesn't even complain about competition.
No offense to these guys but they need to understand that literally everything in life is a competition. You cannot run from a challenge. Have to face it head on. It is called the real world. He isn't at Drexel anymore.
MeManBoy says it sounds a bit far fetched to him. I guess Amari is really leaving.
Yeah. Said staff was seeing wells but it was Butler.
Matt Jones is a hack??? SURE lol. He's an idiot when it comes to politics but it's not like he has ZERO connections. Also no Trilly is just as much of a "hack" as Matt Jones and the people that post on this paid board. And you are right I have no idea if the rumor is true. But I do 100% know that these Insiders are just as likely to be wrong as they are right. And no Trilly hasn't been wrong twice out of 113 predictions.
If it's true that he and Great were a package deal, you have to question taking Garrison even if he was ready to commit.
Tricky situation, especially in the portal era.
Lol, he posted all his predictions. He missed twice. And both were UK guys.
Amari needs to understand he's coming into the SEC. When SEC stripes sees the big body on UK's post players, no more 7' 120 pounders, they'll rediscover their whistles. UK needs backups.
