Welcome home JQ
I think he's going to be great here. His hands are huge.. looks like he's holding a Jr. Pro ball.
Dude looks like he wants to kill somebody when he’s on the court, but off the court he sounds like a good hearted person lol
Jesus. Can some of you not be a-holes? How about focusing on him being a player and not on other aspects that don’t involve basketball?
Don’t make our fan base look worse than it does at times.

Weird comment even if he did have a lisp. Him having absolutely zero lisp makes it even weirder.
Some of these trolls need to get a life. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the way JQ speaks.
Key thing here is that he combined his official visit with move in and is ready to get started on 2nd phase of his rehab here in Lextown. If he has his ROM (Range of Motion) back already he is ahead of the game (saw that somewhere else not here). It will be building the muscles up to protect that knee, keep up on ROM as that is a daily thing with this type of surgery. Love the fact that he got here first to get started here at UK.
My only concern is whether anyone has measured him in his bare feet. That is crucial -- what if he loses a shoe during a vital possession and his true height determines the outcome of a game.
You are responding to a U6 troll.Weird comment even if he did have a lisp. Him having absolutely zero lisp makes it even weirder.
Wish someone would suggest to Pope to measure all players with their shoes off and on and list two heights this coming season so we know their true height.
This guy Pope is moon walking on Mars right now!!! This off season sure feels "Championship Mentality" with the team coming in. JQ 's approach was about UK coach Pope and staff. Reese Potter commitment was huge! Lexington roots, and bleeds blue. Hawthorne ,once again Pope and staff made his decision easy, and he grew up loving UK!! They all, including all incoming freshmen/portal players have echoed similar sentiments about getting #9 this season.
Moving in and official visit! He wants to be ready for the start of the season! His game is effortless! . Ecstatic to see him in espn top 10 ,in a UK uniform, before he leaves for the NBA.

Whatever.....it is obvious due to your hand wringing in the Aly Khalifa thread.
JQ comparing his wingspan to AD'S wingspan
I keep getting real positive vibes for this team.
It's going to be Oweh & Lowe's team, much like last year's team was Oweh's and Butler's. I believe we will look at Kam Williams coming in as the best sixth man in the game and a dead eye shooter, much like in the role of Brea last year, just with better handles, driving ability and defense. Mo D and Aberdeen will give much needed experience and athleticism as well as defense, rebounding and scoring too. Freaky freshmen coming off the bench, Chandler, Garrison, Noah, with solid experience and the chance to take another huge step up.... Jelavic, Hawthorne..... wow, it's an embarrasment of riches, actually.
I expect the biggest story laying in wait will be Jayden Quaintance, however. His story may be the story of how great this team will be and what they will ultimately accomplish this upcoming year.
I'm boldly thinking everyone is going to be surprised that he will be ready by the start of the season. Will he be? Is the question. I got a suspicion he will be ready from the first game. Even if he isn't ready right away, his entrance into the lineup will open up so many things for our team, it's hard to say just exactly how valuable he will be, considering we have such talent surrounding him.
But the bottom line for me is that I think he's going to be a lottery pick, we'll end up with 4 first round NBA draft picks from the team after next year, and #9 ???
well, folks, #9 is within sight, and I'd say with Coach Pope, it's just a matter of time.
We shall see. We shall all see.

Why don't you make them stand down in a hole when you measure them? This no shoe argument has always been stupid.
I say we measure them all wearing 6in stiletto heels. We will have the tallest team in the country.
I haven't picked up on a lisp at all.
Just a well spoken kid that talks slightly softly.
I really hope Potter gets to redshirt. I think he is a strong piece for the future. He and Noah are my picks to possibly redshirt. It depends on Noah’s ability to defend. If he shows substantial defensive improvement, he likely will play. Otherwise, redshirt both and build for the future.
Impressive wingspan. Unless its an angle thing on the pic, he has the same. Wonder if it isnt as noticable because he isnt as thin?
