Oweh is back

[PoBilly]

Just made too much sense to come back. It made sense to go through the process, find out the details of what teams want to see for Oweh to improve on in 2025-26 college season. If Oweh can manifest those wants into facts (on the court), he will be first round draft choice.

Touchdown!

Weird...





I gotchu @Fox2monk. Don't worry, Bud.

Receipts lol.

 

[BGCATFAN2012]

Just seen a guy on YouTube saying he's back!!! Came running here to confirm our guys is back!!! DAFFY!!!

 

[MdWIldcat55]

Otega Oweh to college basketball: "You are ALL SOONERS Next Year!" He's gonna treat the whole country like he treated Oklahoma last season...

 

[BGCATFAN2012]

Freaking Awesome

... and that is all

Yup, longest summer in a long time where I’m anxiously waiting for bball season. Really exciting for the season and Oweh back just amps it up by a 100.

 

[darrellm1234]

This is great news. I hope he can now go out and have a great season and improve his NBA stock.
He is a "difference maker" on this UK roster.

Nice. I'm excited to see what he and the team does next year. Should be a fun season.

 

[CastleRubric]

Can't wait for him to dunk on more people next year!!!! So weird to have a player return... weird feeling fellas

Somewhere Oklahoma fans are weeping

WEEPING!!!!!!'

 

[jeffky]

let’s go!

Where is the obligatory daffy? This warrants that

 

[westerncat]

Some of you need help !

 

[Demarcus Kidd-Miller]

Pretty pumped for next year. I dont want to start a new thread just to ask this, but when is our next available pre-season foreign trip? I know we have the two exhibitions this year (which I'm very excited for).

 

[Fancatstik]

I thought he would go but happy he’s back. I still think he is NBA talented and I’m sure it was a tough decision for him.

 

[NerlensCat]

Now we can start worrying about JQ getting healthy or Jelavic getting in to UK in time for the season, or some other random thing. We fans will always worry.

This is not to derail this into a political discussion as much as it is to keep us grounded related to Jelavic. Unfortunately, Trump/Rubio has put New Student Visas on hold temporarily. Hopefully this does not hold him up too long or maybe he already has his Visa. But it could be a sticking point.

 

[NociHTTP]

Hang the banner.

Long, long way to go before that can occur. I'm most excited that we'll actually have quality depth this year, and Pope will be able to keep guys on the bench if they're not buying in to what he's saying.

 

[KyJones64]

When I heard the news earlier I figured that it was just fake as it's been the past several weeks. I checked and saw that it was Legit and well I reckon I had to celebrate ......... and much like the rest of my Kentucky Family I had to pour a few shots of Pure Kentucky!!

GBB!! #9

from ESPN.com

"My mindset is trying to be the alpha guy," Oweh said. "I need to be that voice that leads the team. I'm one of the few guys that was there last year. I know the feeling of losing in the Sweet 16. I plan to lead the group this year."

Good point and hard to tell, right.
One thing is that would have to hold up Dame Sarr, The Jovic and others. Might hold up guys in NBA Draft as well.

 

[BBNinSC_rivals62411]

I sure was thinking we would not have Oweh next season. Now, it seems like a long summer until we get to see the team. I could not be more excited for the start of a season.

we now have real chance to fight for #9

Let's go Cats

 

[fredmanthecatfan]

The only surprise for me was that it didn’t mirror the Jaxson Robinson decision by letting it go past midnight as a favor to sites like this.
It was pretty funny listening to sources say a year ago when after midnight no announcement was made and they were trying to come up with things to talk about while waiting for news to break.

Illinois wouldn't have a basketball team.

 

[ganner918_rivals60369]

I will admit that I was wrong. I'm sorry. However I also said "However I am hearing that he is starting to have some doubts." And I said this an hour or two before he decided to comeback.

Delete your account, clown. You outed yourself as a troll.

It was strictly student visas. So, theoretically just students. Who knows though. Just may take a little longer than we expect. I would say, we need to get Mitch on it, but isn’t he a Louisville guy? Maybe Rand Paul on this one

 

[NerlensCat]

Wow, that is a harsh take!

 

[Digger-Cat]

This was never a close decision and I'm glad it’s over so the ridiculous hand wringing can be over and we can all dream about Oweh posterizing someone different every game.

 

[trueblujr]

I can’t wait to see what this group does. Now all we need is some luck from injuries that we haven’t been able to avoid the last few years and we are good!

I think this team is built to be able to sustain even if there are some injuries along the way. Our #14 player is Hawthorn for Christ’s sake. We are loaded. And not just for this year.

I think you are underestimating Hawthorn. He may not be a starter, but he is going to get some minutes.

 

[chasingwildcat]

I think you are underestimating Hawthorn. He may not be a starter, but he is going to get some minutes.

I would not be surprised if he beats someone to be in the rotation

If he can get some muscle to be like 195 pounds in season starts, he should be strong enough to play some minutes in regular rotation

Skill and length was never problem of him

Kam vs Hawthorne vs Oweh in practice will be hard fights every day
