Reed declares
- Thread starter University-6
- Start date
Good player no doubt but not a legend.
LOL, get out of here. He's not a legacy player. He didn't do squat in the tournaments. His parents being who they are has ZERO to do with Reed on an individual basis.
I really think the weak draft helped solidify this. If it was the other way around, he might be looking at going 20-30th this year, or top5 next year. But he was almost for sure going to drop next year unless he really showed out. How do you take the risk.
I also think he's going a little early, hope he sticks this landing cause it might be a little far of a leap.

Because of his lack of athleticism (as much as I hated that term used by Cal), I think he's going to have a difficult time sticking in the NBA, but that money is really tempting.
Congratulations to the young man. He gave his all during his time here and I will follow his career in the NBA. He will always be a UK guy, not a Calipari guy. Go chase your dreams Shep!
I think legacy was implying his father played here not what he'd accomplished.
NBA life will be a major adjustment for him.
Yep give them 2 a good coach and they would’ve had #9!!!!! Another great example like you said of Cal being one of the biggest POS ….
Reeves too. What a waste.
I know that had to be a tough decision for him. I think he knew about two weeks ago. I would’ve made the same decision.
Who could’ve ever thought this was a possibility when he was North Laurel? Never would’ve predicted he be a lottery pick after one year.

Saw him at the tattoo shop today pricing some ink that said “Earned not Given”
Well, I really thought he might stay one more year and I think he almost did, but a lottery pick is just to hard to turn down. His stock couldn’t go any higher so he should be set for life. I hope he does well but I have my doubts with his size, but he doesn’t have to worry about now if it doesn’t work out.
He’s gone, there was no I’m keeping my options open. Only the I’ll come back when my Career is done.
He’s built different! It’s legacy. Nope at the end of the day the all mighty $ wins again. It always will. Not that I blame him, the decision was honestly easy.
He was the worst player on the floor in his final game here. Plenty of blame on his shoulders, too
Common sense plays out. There was no way he was passing up being a lottery pick which is what every college player dreams of.
This is a fair point. For all other calipari players they have been purely judged on ncaa tournament success or lack thereof at times.
I can’t wait to log on soon and see some actual good news. It’s been a barrage lately.
Yeah, I don’t care how good you were, you can’t be a UK “legend” if you never won the SEC or even got past the first round of either the SEC or NCAA tournaments.
Winning is what counts at UK. And this team didn’t win anything that matters.
Don’t blame him
Just another reason to be angry he wasn’t put in a position to succeed here
The fact he showed as well as he did is amazing to me

The least surprising thing that has ever happened. Finally people here can stop daydreaming.
It’s about coaching and how a coach uses you too. Let’s be honest Cal hasn’t been up to par when it comes to preparing teams and players for the end of the year since 2019….
You’ll know them by the “he ain’t ready” and critical posts that’s incoming. Haha
"Cal hasn't been up to par when it comes to preparing players"
That's like saying that the Elephant Man had a little baggyness under the eyes.
Cal wasted more talent than Dean Smith. What a joke he is.
