He’s a mediocre player who thinks he’s a star. He averaged 12 pts a game at 25 years old. If UL wants him more power to em. Don’t want him anywhere near this program.
I think he hurt Auburn in a lot of ways with his whining and fake injuries. If he couldn't get that team across the finish line, he can't help us.

Gather round children, and let me tell you of the glorious day we stole a recruit from the evil Kentucky.
But Grandpa, doesn't Kentucky have like 14 titles now?
So WHAT! We celebrate mediocrity here in Indiana. Here's your box of popcorn and commemorative cracker jack ring for getting Wilkerson .... Now shut up and listen!
FIFY !

I’d be fine with CBM and trust Pope to straighten out his head. We need a sniper on his level or Zrno’s or it will make a big negative difference and we will notice it all season whether we want to admit the cause or not.

Portal closes very soon and while it’s not the end of the world if we don’t have that guy by then it sure will get a lot dicier. Better to just TCB now.

It kind of has the feel of Rylan Griffen being the last major add and maybe a project type player for the future.

I think we sometimes bring guys in to draw attention for ourselves and also draw attention to other recruits we have offered to see if someone commits. Mental Warfare

I really hope we get Mazara for 2 reasons.
1) He's a star player and is capable of taking over games against anyone.
2) I don't want Louisville to add him to what is a very good roster already.

None of the other players still available can hurt us as much as CBM can if he goes to a competitor.
Transcript issues apparently. There are many obstacles that would need to be overcome to get him. I’d imagine if you get a commitment from Griffen or another of these guards you’re after, you probably take the commitment and get to next phase of the off-season. I would LOVE to see CBM in a Kentucky uniform and I bet Pope would too —- but way too many hurdles.

Anyone heard any chatter on our next person we land? I doubt we're done right?

Just seems like it's been really silent the last couple of days. I'm sure the holiday plays in, but it seems like it's been a couple of days since we got a boom.
And it’s Easter so most of us are with Family✝️🐰💙

He was the 2nd leading scorer on a 3 loss final 4 team. He definitely wasn't mediocre.

Portal closes in 3 or 4 days. I would expect the roster to be set shortly after unless we go the freshman or European route for a last piece.
Portal closes for people to enter. It does not close for picking up players.

Well it’s a lil Wayne lyric lol, cal ain’t cool enough to come up with that
I know, and that makes it WORSE.

Imagine your high school teacher coming in saying "Skibidi" and "Rizz" Same vibes. Last thing I want is a 60+ year old man quoting a rap star unironically.

You do you.
I'm glad we have a coach who's not using lines from rap stars to try and be cool. I have no problem with the rappers themselves per se, but like everything else with Cal, he was all talk and nothing really to back it up.

I don’t get why Aberdeen would want to come to UK. We can’t offer him a bigger role than he had at Florida. Don’t get me wrong, I’d love to have him
Unless he is cool being the off ball guard, and wants to prove he is a good scorer I don’t get why either

Griffin has a volume of attempts so I trust that a lot more. Aberdeen can play for sure though
He’s a good player but not better than Lowe, he isn’t really built to play SG. Would be the best backup PG in the nation but I can’t see that happening. Don’t see the fit whatsoever

As of right now I agree. Now I do think of Aberdeen is given the keys to the offense he can be better or just as good as Lowe. But I don’t see Aberdeen getting that here.
