Now Yates would be a great get. Going to be a fight. Apparently 2 mil is the current price. Washington has money and wants him back.
We saw how that worked out for Great Osobor.

How would he fit?
Oweh/Jasper at the 2
Chandler at 1/2/3
Williams/Noah at 3
Seems like a logjam. I guess Noah could play the 4 if we went small. Don’t get me wrong, I’m all in if he comes. Just seems like a lot of bodies.
I will watch. I can tell you that if he’s a cat, he’s my guy.Go watch his clips, he can create his own shot better than almost anyone we had last year, and he is actually rated pretty decent in defensive efficiency.
He's better than Brea.Well there’s our Brea replacement
If you did one of those lineup charts, you could look at last year and say "we have too many guards".Agree. This makes me feel like they aren't 100% confident that Oweh returns.
There will be no minutes for Chandler. But I'm thinking oweh might be gone. If oweh comes back wouldn't surprise me if JJ jump elsewhere.It does seem that we may be losing someone, or this addition may cause someone to leave. Which isn't a bad thing at all. But it does seem tough to appease 7 or guards. Maybe it's Oweh who leaves, or maybe Perry and Chandler are not featured as much this coming year.
I know Kentucky tampered hard to get him in the portalFor what its worth Lowe also entered with a do not contact on him, so he may have already made his decision.
Oweh is a 3. He only played some 2 last season after losing Jax/Kerr/Butler…or foul trouble after Butlers returnAgree. This makes me feel like they aren't 100% confident that Oweh returns.
Source?I know Kentucky tampered hard to get him in the portal
You're 100% correct. It just seems like a logjam right now, and I'm not even thinking about Perry and Noah. Hopefully the coaches don't feel as such and does get another backcourt recruit.This kid is better than 3 of the 5 names that his post lists.
You can't pass on a top portal talent to make guys like Perry, Chandler and Noah happy. That is how coaches lose their jobs.
What is the group of players that gives Kentucky the absolute best chance to win the league and compete for number 9 next season- THAT is the assignment.
If we sign this kid and Perry feels he needs to enter the portal, so be it.
Trilly said Washington, but jones and our insiders are acting like it’s usWhat’s the word??
I didn't know the Crown was a tournament. So, UK was waiting for the tournament to end, possible Tampering?What is Matt referring to?
It's my understanding that the DNC means one of two things - they already picked their school and are just following portal rules, or they have their handful of schools THEY would consider and will only work with those schools and will pick one after talking to only those schools.For what its worth Lowe also entered with a do not contact on him, so he may have already made his decision.
I've seen nothing that makes me think we have any insidersTrilly said Washington, but jones and our insiders are acting like it’s us
Tampering is up there with carrying and traveling. It might as well not even be a thing.I know Kentucky tampered hard to get him in the portal
100% Everyone is in on itTampering is up there with carrying and traveling. It might as well not even be a thing.
It's like moving screens and 3 seconds in the lane. No one cares (until a school sues, which wouldn't shock me in this NIL portal world today).100% Everyone is in on it
Is BG gonna transfer?This would be a big one.
We would have an argument for the best backcourt/perimeter group in college basketball with this addition.
Acaden Lewis
Jasper Johnson
JaLand Lowe
Otega Oweh
Wesley Yates
Travis Perry
Kam Williams
Collin Chandler
How often is he wrong?Trilly says Yates to Washington.![]()
I hope hes wrong
SmhWhy would he go to fricking Washington for. They suck.
Maybe he liked his year there and they’ll give him some of the Great Osobor money coming off the books?Why would he go to fricking Washington for. They suck.
Unfortunately not often on his picks. This isn't a pick though just rumorHow often is he wrong?
BG isn’t in the backcourt so he wasn’t listed.Is BG gonna transfer?
About UK? All the time lolHow often is he wrong?
It's real simple. You play the best players and you don't worry about hurting feelings.How would he fit?
