Braydon Hawthorne commits to UK!
- Thread starter University-6
- Start date
Awesome, guy could be good if he sticks around
The audio on the announcement sounded like he was on mars
Very interesting welcome aboard young man
You have to admit Pope is amazing to convince this guy to come to a loaded roster!
Welcome to Kentucky. I don’t really get why he is coming here. He would get all the mins he wants at Pitt or WVA
You don’t want him?
The chicken littles will just say it means Oweh is gone
Shocked but happy! I assume Pope laid out a really attractive 2 year plan that appealed to him. He knows he’s not going to be a 1 and done guy.
I love this commitment!!! Welcome to the BBN YOUNG Man!
I have thought will it influence the future recruitment on SF in 26 class...
But nevertheless, welcome to BBN, man
But nevertheless, welcome to BBN, man
It's almost like he wanted to play for the greatest college basketball program of all time over and play with a bunch of great players who can elevate his game to another level.
Not saying that at all. I’m saying I don’t get why he himself is coming here. He will get to play at the other 2 schools. Here he might get to play in year2 or year 3
POPE IS COOKING. This kid has sky high potential. Pope really isn't going to let injuries be our downfall again.
UK EFFECT
yeah because that’s why recruits commit to schools nowadays. He probably got convinced of a developmental plan.
We win the recruitment battle over Duke!
I don’t want to be a chicken little, but it does make me curious about Oweh. Great late add either way.
The kid has made a huge jump as far as improvement from last year to this year. He’s a really good get!

I'm by no means a chicken little but I can't help but wonder how we get the scholarship space?
I get what your saying.
Sadly, a player wanting to be upfront with the fact he is not a OAD and is willing to put the work in for the long haul is not the majority these days.
If this kid is as good as they say, seeing him under Pope's system would be fun to watch.
We have 15 scholarships my guy
Because we're UK and they're Pitt and WVA. Love it. Guy's got huge long range upside. Welcome young man.
I thought that too but then some were saying today that this hasn't gone into effect yet, so I'm confused.
I think he'll get some decent minutes here. I've been high on this guy. I think he's the steal of this class. Being a late bloomer, I think he's massively underrated. You are correct though, he would have gotten all the minutes he could want at those other schools. I think he's smart enough to know that less minutes at UK is better than more PT at those schools in the long run. Get him in the gym with Dioubate so he can toughen him up.
We won the off-season . No doubt in my mind.
Got the Coach Cody Boom, It is official!!!
I don't know how it could. At all. The portal is closed so Williams is locked in. Oweh is getting his over this kid.
