Heard yesterday evening it was likely that he would visit. I heard it was Kentucky v IU, so little surprised to see Auburn on the list, and a lot surprised to see Ole Miss. I don’t think we are out of it.
If he is visiting why would anybody think we are out of it. I think the staff goes all out on the visit and tries to lock him down

Anyone heard any other updates out of Fayetteville?

I thought for sure that Wagner would enter the portal, and Knox would test the draft waters, etc.
Latest sounds like both should be back. Arkansas is supposedly out of it for Ament so between him and Theiro that’s about $5 million in NIL they can now allocate elsewhere. Sounding good on Ewin and Pringle but it is oddly quiet other than that. Seems the biggest priority right now is retention. Obviously want to get a shooter in the portal but for whatever reason it sounds like Cal is prioritizing others over Wilkerson when most fans thought he’d be low hanging fruit when he entered.

Ament want too much or what? I’m surprised Cal backed off a top 5 guy no matter the ask unless he’s worried it will affect Maleek and Acuff wanting more or getting mad.

From what I’ve seen, Pierre is freakish explosive at 6’6 and is just that “guy”, I know Wilkerson is good and shot better from 3 but Pierre has “it” I feel. I want Pierre more than anyone but know there’s so many other factors involved like $$$ for one.
kind of the way that I see them too.
Being 6'6", Pierre could also slide into the wing spot to allow UK to have another shooter in the line up.

Cal wants athletes, he doesn't give a rip about shooters.

What an unfortunate last name. “Hey Cedric, why didn’t you take that last shot, are you a Coward?”
Or he might be (most likely is) the type of person/player that I would love to see someone say that to him and stand back and watch.
