Kentucky fans are in melt down mold lol. They know that Duke is the real deal next season, they are so jealous. They are already saying Bolden not that good, couple weeks ago Bolden was the real deal, now since we got him he is not that good.

Yea because those egotistical maniacs can't talk that 40-0 crap like they usually do!

Even though there is a complete tool from UK posting here, let's don't write Kentucky off, their incoming class is nice, real nice. I think ours will be better though.

Yes, I think the lesson from the 2015 season is just b/c you have the most top-to-bottom talent doesn't mean you're going to end up playing your best in March, and leaving the NCAAs with a national title. Top-to-bottom, we're going to have a better returning roster than they do b/c our returning players are better / more experienced (Grayson, Amile, Matt particularly -- but also Kennard and Chase should make big steps forward as well) and our high-end recruits are better (the marginal value of having a slightly better 9th player on the roster is pretty darn low). With that said, in the end of the day, the difference is not big enough for any of us to star counting are chickens before they hatch -- much like UK fans did for the entire 2014-15 season. This amalgamation of talent will give us a good chance to win a title. Still have to go do it. Kansas (if they get Jackson), UK, Nova, Oregon and Arizona (depending on recruiting) will all provide real competition for the top spot. It's going to be really competitive at the top of college basketball.

I'm picking Duke to win the whole damn thing next season. You guys are loaded. It's about time I return to my poor, pitiful existence.

Man you have a lot of hate. Life is too short to live that way. I would ask if you are a Trump follower, but I'm guessing you aren't old enough to vote yet so the question is irrelevant.

It's amazing to me that Duke already has 2 of the top 3 recruits in hand (top 2 by some rankings) and UK's class is still regarded as better.

Was reading a thread over at Rupp Rafters and someone was saying that they should have the number 1 class and gave a breakdown of how everyone of their guys was ranked ahead of ours. The nitwit said Tatum was ranked #10 in the 2016 class. Huh?? Just making up s**t now or what? They have this complex about needing to have the number 1 ranked class. See it every year with them.

I'm new here and probably gonna get bashed for saying this but I don't know if I want bolden anymore or just tired of the wait ..I mean I really doesn't make sense I K of a million players have waited as long or longer in their decision but I just got a bad feeling about him I mean his reason for waiting this long don't make sense ..he's said he doesn't Know where he wants to go and he doesn't want it being a distraction with him playing high school ball now well guess what you not picking a school is making it an even more of a distraction you Know how you end all distractions pick a school and its over!!!! Lol and I'm sure if I was in his shoes I'd be loving the attention I was getting also can't blame him ..but he knows where he's going idc who says he doesn't ..he's just loving the attention ..hope I'm wrong just got that feeling ..we would be fine without him imo

I mean yea i stated that alot players have waited ..but he's not in the same breath as Ingram he thinks he is...and when I say we will be fine I mean final four,champion fine ..look all the cards are on the table you know who's staying who's coming who's went to draft what coaches are staying .. scholarships ..the seasons over you've had years to think about it ..make a decision ..stop dragging it out for attention and saying you don't know when you do .. you're not Ingram ..or Jackson lol it be different but it'd just been what he's said about it all that strikes me wrong ..

Bolden hasn't really said anything, he has kept most of his process to himself and hasn't asked for any drama. It's his life and decision and if he wants to wait to the very last day to announce then that's up to him, don't fault him for it. I really hope and think he chooses Duke and am more than happy to have him here.

I think if I were a Kentucky fan today and it looked as bleak as it does for you now, I'd probably skip on over to a Duke board and let them know I didnt really care if we got him or not now to. It's really kinda neat if you'll look back 6 weeks ago how badass Bolden was at Rupp and how he just isn't all that today. Weird huh?

Bolden could very well be struggling with his decision. His camp has been quiet. Hell, there have been guys in the past who announced the fall of their senior year who dragged it out more and drew attention to themselves.

Not exactly true.....visit......read..
For weeks, the preference has been nearly even between Bolden and Allen, with many actually preferring a good SF over both. Fans are willing to lose Lee for a big, but really want to keep Briscoe. Many (like me) are happy with what we have and eager for Humphrey to get more time.

He said in an interview a while back he would announce before his 18th birthday. He turns 18 on April 17th
