A mobile scoring forward is needed plus a top notch point guard
A shot blocker inside would also be great
Stokes leaves his HS

That’s why we tried to pay Wilson. Sucks we couldn’t get it done.
If he comes early just freaking play, I don’t want no Sharpe BS. He’s good enough now to play.
Neither was Sharpe… apparently and what’s with the grades BS? They take players from the G league now, they didn’t take any classes.
He might pull a Telfair and go play in Europe a year until NBA draft eligible.
You take whoever wants to commit when talking about top talent, seems simple to me. But I believe we are being strung along by all of the kids in this class. Either way I’m sure the coaches will figure it out.
Grab Holt and Collins
I think if we give Holt like 3.5M, Holt would commit tomorrow...

You know I laughed and made fun of Cal quite a bit for that quote. But now I find myself using it often. LolBaba
Holt
Stokes
Collins
In that order
“Don’t gotta get em all, just can’t miss em all”
I would not be upset if we cut ties off with Stokes. I have read in the past that he isn't great to get along with. I am like many of you, I would go hard after Oladotun, Holt and Collins. That would be a monster class,
I wish that we would have made Thompson a priority over Stokes. I think that we could have got him.

Would you be upset if he went to Kansas scored 30 and beat us,I'd say half this board would
We're going to have to see who comes back before looking that far ahead. You've potentially only got two open roster spots after this season, should everyone with eligibility return.
I get and understand this, but if college guys wanna be paid, they’re gonna have to be treated like pros. Which means if we bring in two super talented guys, regardless if they are recruits or from the portal, sounds like 2 current roster guys will have to transfer and find new homes if they want to retain eligibility. Can’t take the biggest paycheck every year, then expect a high level of loyalty reciprocated to you. Can’t have your cake and eat it too.
Although I do think Pope is a loyal guy, and did a great job year 1 to 2 of retaining some guys based on relationship.
Getting kicked out of school for breaking another kids jaw? Sounds like a Jayhawk to me
Maybe this is why Pope and Kelsey were trying to fight. Show Stokes who has hands
Sometimes these kids don't have the best people around them and need a positive mentor. John Wall and Cousins had the same reputation and they turned out okay.
If he broke a kids jaw sign him TODAY.
We’ve had nothing but soft girls for years. Get an ******* in here that the whole country hates. It automatically makes other teams off their game when dealing with a psycho. And pope has the right mentality to do with that kind of kid and make him keep his anger toward the other team.

If Pope allows this, I think this would not sit well with BBN.
Pope is truly a Kentucky Wildcat and I hope he knows better.
Coach Pope was probably just as aggravated as we were during that whole fiasco
I truly think that there is only one coach who would allow the Sharpe fiasco to happen and happily he is gone from Kentucky now.
Not defending Cal at all but Sharpe and his handlers absolutely lied to Cal.
The recruiting cycle is all about agents and money. I have a good friend in Vandy athletic structure that told me that most of these kids no longer make the decision about where they go, thier agents do. The agents don't give a rip about the college game it's all about who pays and strategic positioning for the jump to the league.
It's amazing how taking a years worth of 101 college classes scares off *some* of these players. Like, no one is going to care if you pass or not. It's 2025, we know you're here to play basketball. Just wild to me.. yo're 18-years old, just have to take 15-hours of courses a week, and your surrounded by 10,000 coeds and endless parties.
Cal had many flaws but I’m not sure what he could have done in the Sharpe situation. Transcripts magically are produced deep into February that he graduated a year ago, you can either A. Take him and his family at their word that he will be back next year. Or B. Dismiss him, take a terrible PR hit, and have the same eventual result of him never playing for UK.
After reading that he may have been kicked out of school, Kansas upped their offer.
