Sheppard offered by UK

[senonesy]

 

[chroix]

Good. Hope he comes to UK.

 

[drew_ukfan_rivals]

Done deal

 

[akaukswoosh]

Very cool.

 

[GonzoCat90]

I can't imagine what that feels like for the kid. Thrilled for him (and for the program).
Hope he ends up 6'10 and the top player in America.

 

[akaukswoosh]

Done deal

He might wait a little while but I agree.

 

[rick64]

Well this will keep the Cal bashers happy for a little while.

6-4 would work for me (wink). That said with all these elite kids getting pro money to skip college, Shep getting an early offer might look brilliant if DJ Wagner decides to take the money and skip UK. (Very possible).

 

[KyLegacyBBN]

LFG, hope he commits.

 

[Kycatspaws]

Alright, glad to hear it!

 

[RoyKent]

Well this will keep the Cal bashers happy for a little while.

no chance. They all said he was waiting too long, wouldn’t offer, etc….

 

[Emarc]

what’s his wingspan?

 

[stereonut]

40-0

 

[*Fox2Monk*]

Good, now everyone can just calm down.

 

[BigKari]

Would love to get Sheppard, but more than anything I’m just glad the offer finally came down so everyone can shut up about it.

 

[BigBlueFan19]

Palm size??? Standing reach???

just kidding, but I’m sure glad we offered. Sounds like they liked what they saw when the coaching staff attended his game.

 

[Rockford]

I can confirm.

This is not a drill. Repeat, this is NOT a drill.

The Germans have bombed Pearl Harbor.

The Red Duck Jumped Over The Lazy Dog.

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

He'll be a Cat.

He'll be an elite supplemental piece for a future Final Four team. I'm really glad UK offered this kid.

 

[STL_Cat]

Ball is in his court now. Nice to see all the way around!

 

[SandyBell'sFaxMachine]

He'll be a Cat.

He'll be an elite supplemental piece for multiple future Final Four teams. I'm really glad UK offered this kid.

Fixed it for you

 

[Randy Bob]

Hope he becomes a cat.

 

[flacat22]

Well this will keep the Cal bashers happy for a little while.

Maybe. Soon theyll whine that “the offer took too long,” “loservile offered first,” “I know a guy whose cousin knows a guy that says Cal and Jeff don’t get along”…blah blah blah. NEVER underestimate the depths of their misery and Cal hatred.

This!!!! Both sides please.

 

[westerncat]

Just what we needed, another Reed Sheppard thread. I guess the others on the 1st page weren't enough.

Why the hate on this kid ???????

 

[Orange Soda King]

Congrats to him, and I’m glad Cal offered him. I hope he picks Kentucky!

 

[senonesy]

[kywildcat1021979]

Well that should wrap this recruitment up!

 

[bnewt]

Don't read it pretty. Simple

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

It's pretty cool that Mashburn's kid, Delk's kid, and Sheppard's kid all turned out to be decent ballers.

 

[St.PatterSoN-54-]

It's pretty cool that Mashburn's kid, Delk's kid, and Sheppard's kid all turned out to be decent ballers.

And Shaq’s kid. Wait, never mind

 

[fs-ripcord65]

I can't imagine what that feels like for the kid. Thrilled for him (and for the program).

Agree 100%, Gonzo, and I can't say it any better. Just can't imagine how good that feels for the kid.

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

And Shaq’s kid. Wait, never mind

Legacy kids usually turn out pretty good.

Glen Robinson Jr.
Anthony Mason Jr.
Glen Rice Jr.
Steph and Seth Curry
Devin Booker
Nolan Smith
etc.

It's pretty remarkable how grounded in the fundamentals these kids are due to their dads' instructions.

 

[jcmc225]

He cometh

 

[chattanoogawildcat]

You mad?

 

[CELTICAT]

His NIL is gonna be lit. He’ll move a ton of merch

 

[Rockfly78]

Why hasn’t he committed yet? I knew Cal waited too long

 

[Cowtown Cat]

Maybe. Soon theyll whine that “the offer took too long,” “loservile offered first,” “I know a guy whose cousin knows a guy that says Cal and Jeff don’t get along”…blah blah blah. NEVER underestimate the depths of their misery and Cal hatred.

I believe the Cal/Jeff beef has been way overblown. I think some things were taken out of context, thus shaping a narrative. JMO.

 

[StubbornPenny]

would immediately become the top NIL earner on the team, the second he commits. For a guy who may be fringe NBA, I'm certain he could pull 50K a year at least.

 

[Cawood86_rivals]

Good to hear. Now it's up to him Cal and UK have done their part.

 

[Gassy_Knowls]

would immediately become the top NIL earner on the team, the second he commits. For a guy who may be fringe NBA, I'm certain he could pull 50K a year at least.

I bet he can make more than that. Make a split Jersey on the back with his dad's number and his own number and it would go ballistic in sales
