He will get good feedback. I just don’t think he is first round in this draft.

 

[BlueBloodKyFan73]

Not even listed in either round that I’ve seen updated

Fantastic. Get some feedback and return to us and improve in your sophomore season!

 

[JwUKFan11]

Moreno is back. That's one piece. Need about 10 more

 

[BlueBloodKyFan73]

He will get good feedback. I just don’t think he is first round in this draft.

He has to develop a mid range jumper to even be considered

 

[cornbreadnmilk]

Good news. He should be very good next season.

 

[JimboBBN]

One down, many to go. He was wanted I really wanted back though. So this is good news.

He"ll be back ,That was bad headline,made the impression he was leaving,he'll be back

 

[JimboBBN]

Thread might need to be changed. He’s signed a return deal to UK but is testing the draft waters. Just for some clarity

 

[BBNinSCar]

I am very excited to get Moreno back. He’s a quick developer and is going to turn into something special. The draft process should be a great learning experience for him.

Work on midrange, get a go-to post move, and continue building that IQ and passing abilities while changing his body in the weight room.

A lot for an off-season, but I think he can do it.

I wish we could come up with a different way to say "testing the waters". So freaking old...

Yes. Very good news!

Still need to land four high impact starters from the portal, but this is an important start.

 

[MidseasonTweak]

He will be back. No worries

Nice!

Work on his hands and strength around the goal.

 

[FitchandMurray29]

Very rough C market so having your starting center locked up is essential.

Almost no chance he actually goes pro in my mind.

 

[Vek96]

Glad to have him back. Now hit the weight room and get a ton stronger.

 

[MonsterMash79]

Pipe dream..

 

[JohnRambo82]

Smart move. Hear from scouts on what you need to work on, come back and get to work.

 

[Cats4321]

Glad to have him back. He showed a lot of upside this year as a Freshman.

 

[BlueBloodKyFan73]

Work on midrange, get a go-to post move, and continue building that IQ and passing abilities while changing his body in the weight room.

A lot for an off-season, but I think he can do it.

With all that he would be the best center next year there’s not a bunch coming back ahead of him

 

[ComebackCats98]

He posted that a few minutes ago. Instead of focusing on the guys that don’t want to be here I really appreciate someone that wants to wear the blue and white.

 

[FitchandMurray29]

Dude is making bank at UK next season. Much more than many on here were wanting to pay.

I’d guess it’s at least 2.5M.

 

[ukfan042]

So awesome to have him back! Looking for a big jump next year.

 

[katwest]

I’m happy he’s coming back, I assume he’s wanting feedback on what he needs to improve on and that will be a lot.

 

[ParadiseKy]

One piece to the puzzle down. Just a few more to go. Next year will be a very special season

 

[Wildcat_in_DC]

guessing chandler will be back as well. then kam williams and jelavic. i think that is a nice returning core. add stokes and 2 other starters another player or two as back ups and its a pretty solid team.

 

[TarHeelInCharlotte]

This is a loaded draft. I'd bet he will return and be the starting center for UK, make some NIL money, and then turn pro in a weaker draft in the future.

 

[UKGrad24]

Moreno is back. That's one piece. Need about 10 more

I agree. Only thing is I’m watching Yaxel and wondering….can he ever be that? Don’t see it. But good none the less.

 

[Anon668007]

 

[PoopooPeePee]

Needs to improve strength and lateral quickness and he will be a stud.

 

[TFCat11]

“I’ll approve it!”

This is Pope’s first promising recruiting win this offseason, and I hope there’s many more to come in the next few weeks… With a few main portal priority targets announcing fairly soon.

Put up, or shut up time starts at 12:01am tonight.

 

[Blueaz]

Glad he is staying at UK. Could be a mid 1st rounder after next season.
It’s strange there was more “hate” than “love” for him 2 weeks ago.

 

[bnewt5]

Just don’t understand...4 million?
Not much offense
Needs more strength
Not a good rebounder
No a shot blocker
Not a great defender

 

[UKGrad24]

I wish we could come up with a different way to say "testing the waters". So freakin

yea for sure. It is better than “get your bag” which has turned into a saying meant to sound like the coolest guy in the room. Gangsta!

 

[FilsonCat]

Moreno is one of the players we'd struggle to replace in the portal. Great size, and with some more strength and work on his game will be a load.
