Potential new prospect?
- Thread starter MbergCat
- Start date
I mean I’m not really sure why you guys are still thinking we’re adding players? If Oweh comes back we’re borderline crowded as is.
Don’t see this happening our front court is stronger and deeper than the Huskies that’s why he left.
He's got that look that Duke and Gonzaga will slap fight over while hurling catty remarks back and forth.

Don’t see how we would have room for him, especially considering he wants to start. That is not likely with BG/MD/JQ/AJ/MM already on the roster in the frontcourt.
He's a freshmen. Hopefully Pope is planning farther ahead than just next season.
He’s a top 30 freshman. He didn’t decommit on April 29th to go compete with 5 guys in the front court.
I would like to add another 6’8-7’ big nasty banger in the post. I think we will need that in the SEC and come March.
Jaland L 6-foot-3
Otega 6-foot-4
Jasper J 6-foot-4
Denzel A 6 foot-5
Collin C 6-foot-5
Trent N 6-foot-5
Mo D 6-foot-7
Kam Williams 6-foot-8
Jayden Q 6-foot-9
Brandon G 6-foot-10
Jelavic 6-foot-11
M Moreno 6-foot-11
Probably not at that position but Pope is definitely still contacting kids from the portal so he apparently is still interested in adding someone for whatever reason
JQ is taller than 6-9, I do know that. Noah is closer to 6-6 / 6-7. Looks like Garrison is a legit 6-11 / 7-0.
There’s something weird going on here. This kid was down to Michigan St., Ohio St., UCONN, and UNC in October before opening things up completely and committing to Washington one month later. A few months later and he reopens again?
I liked his game but I don’t think Pope will try to add him. I know we recruited him for a little bit before he committed.
This. It's already gonna be a challenge to keep everyone happy next season if we stay healthy.
Even if JQ isn't taller than 6'9" he plays a LOT taller...long arms and quick hops and he really hates that rim.
Think he is just one of those guys who many have said being a guy that doesn't want to compete for his position. Believe Washington just added a player who would compete for the starting position and he doesn't like that. That's what I have heard from some others anyway.
Yeah it seems like he may be a guy who gets tampered with and runs to the best offer he thinks he can get, only to find out the grass wasn’t greener.
If they weren’t gonna add somebody else they would be looking at the miami mid, and the freshman from WV
Had no idea we were still looking at other people. How many do we have now? 12? 13?
Any new kid who reopens their commitment will automatically be linked to Kentucky by "insiders" and fans.
How are players able to de-commit and go elsewhere if the portal is closed? Sorry I don’t have a lot of portal knowledge
I figure the only people in BBN that do not want to add another player or two are the 12 players we already have.
Every time we add another player, that’s potentially less minutes for them.
Fans may not understand this, but players and former players do.
Are you him or his dad? How do you know what he wants?
Some of you all are so close-mindedly sure of yourselves.
Garrison and quaintence are huge. We also have jelavic and Moreno
We don't need another 6'10 + guy
Or we just pay attention and have common sense. But whatever you want to call it.
This is just my thought but if oweh stays in the draft, I expect Kentucky to pivot to Jamir watkins
So you think a a guy coming off surgery who is below average in offensive skill RAW and a guy not playing at over double figures is the answer. I don’t see it please explain
Remember both of these guys are RAW in offense plus BG and MM are not even close to proven
JQ is already twice the offensive player that Amari Williams was. The averaged right at 11 a game as a 16-/17 year-old. Amari had no offense besides a put back. JQ has room to improve no doubt but him at his worst is as good as Amari at his best
Players do get better from year to year. Try not to forget that
