That's a lie. Knox was upfront from day 1 about his intent to be in this draft. Coach Cal has been totally supportive. The Knox family will be interviewing agents in the coming weeks. His days of playing for free are over.
Odd response. If you have information that you can guarantee this is incorrect information, fine by me. Not claiming I know anything other then what I was told and trust who told me this based on who he speaks with and what has been shared in past. Nowhere was it said anything was definitive either way, just sharing what I was told. To claim it's a lie is ridiculous. If you have someone in know, fine, say so and if it's right, appreciate you sharing what you know. That's all that was being done here. And due to financial situation of family and thinking of where standing is/could be, they will talk this out. For example, a guy who had no chance of being drafted was gone once the final buzzer sounded last year and nothing mattered-he was gone (Briscoe). Same source told me Bam was gone when many were saying they were hearing he was returning--due to his family/financial situation. Did that make people who were saying this "liars"? Not at all. I have no dog in this at all other then I enjoy watching UK/Cal teams play and talking basketball with friends on board here. Certainly haven't nor will make things up and never claim to be in the know. People ask me to comment often based on what I've heard, so I did.
