Is chandler going pro? If tyty is a 1st rounder so is he but I bet chandler comes back
Tn. Guards

Chandler is on to the NBA.Guy is a stud and wish we had landed him.
Chandler played a very big part in beating Kentucky. It seemed like he was just too quick for the guards to handle when he decided to drive into the lane and score.
Chandler is 1 and done....and a guy we missed on and reverted back to TyTy/Nolan Hickman. SO we took a step back losing on him to Tenn.
Let's be honest....Tn Guards as a whole were a good bit better than ours which was the difference in Ky vs. Tn this year as a whole. Give Barnes credit...he developed Vescovi very nicely over the years and fits nicely with Chandler and they got a steal in Ziegler.
Oh to have a coach who can mix in developed players with high school studs to win for his program...

I think there is a chance he plays his sophomore year since his draft stock has taking a hit for being small. If he was a lock to go inside the top 15 picks of the draft, im sure he would go and wouldn't blame him but if the projections hold true, it might be too big of a gamble to try the league if you're in the mid to late 20s.
Vescovi, Chandler and James are always the ones who we can't stop, those three have their way with us every game, sad but true.
Their guards are better players than our guards. It's really that simple. Chandler is better than anyone we have and Vescovi is a better version of Grady.
Their small guard went in the lane every play, that is what we need to do to open the floor but we missed shot after shot.
The last two games was a mentality shift. Their guards ate our space and our guards retreated instead of responding. We finally started punching back at the end of the game, but it was too late.
Tyty had the same issue vs Jordan wright, except in that game he hit jumpers to make up for it.
So tyty can expect bullyball coming his way all tournament long. Opposing coaches are crazy not to.
Maybe we should have pressed the whole game like we did in the last three minutes of the game. Ten guards seemed to have a little trouble with the press
The sad thing is it worked but calipari won't use it n the ncaa until it is too late again.
