no one is “poppin soon”. They are all gonna slow down and see where the money is especially if they are considering g league. No one on UKs roster right now is looking at big money. So UK is not going have that guy to optimize nil as an example to other elites. Hell idk if there is enough opportunities for a guy at UK to pull nil cash like there is at schools like Memphis and UCLA. Cal needed duren he needed that star player to not pick Memphis. He needed to use him as an example to sharpen lively and others of what they can do at UK. It’s obvious duren saw more $$$$ at Memphis.
Shaedon Sharpe trims list to 5

If Sharpe commits in September will you stop posting forever?
A September commitment would mean zilch in this environment with guys moving left and right. Look at Hickman buddy. You obviously don’t get it…
Yeah you're right. That one example in 15 years is the benchmark. I can't possibly keep up.
Solid job avoiding the bet though. Most people won't even notice.
you obviously don’t either,if a kid commits 95 percent sure he’s staying.
Lively, Sharpe and Wallace are the big prizes for this year. I hate to imagine all of them possibly landing somewhere else.
In the last year it’s not 95% and that’s with a kid who was signed. Times have changed and you guys still keep going back 10 years instead of seeing what’s happening now!
Right now after crapping the bed last year yeah that is a benchmark. Intelligent people look at trends and were things are today not 15 years ago. You gonna buy stock or other investments based on 15 years ago when the market was completely different or are you going to evaluate based on the changes in the market and current trends??? I know people who have been sitting on cash waiting for 2007 2008 housing crisis to hit again. It’s not happening now an values are skyrocketing. 15 years ago means nothing. Only now the present and where it’s headed matter.
another thing about your challenge to me which honestly is disgusting. A UK fan challenging another UK fan to pull against the programs success is well it makes me question who you are actually a fan of. But that’s why you’re on ignore and it will stay that way. Chao
That is a recurring theme
Early leader only to be left holding the bag
10 million for that crap is getting old
I say get rid of Calipari after this year and hopefully Barnhart will get us a good coach that can get us some top five talent in this place like the old days

CBB as some of us older fans know has changed and i don't see it for the better. When they started paying players i said it would open up a can of worms and i still think it has. There should have been a cap on what the players get paid, after all they are going to school free. JMO
Literally couldn't tell you the last time Slater was wrong tbh. Dude never gives predictions unless he's certain he'll be right. There's a reason people put so much weight into his gif predictions for recruits.
It was a simple question based on actual events that have been happening over and over and over at UK since the 2014 class.
It’s a hell of a reach to claim I'm being negative when my question is very valid.
To be fair, sometimes he makes a gif/prediction for a guy and then some time will go by without him commiting, then he will change his prediction to another school. I think we have Sharpe in the bag, but the longer it drags out, the worse it is for us.
Sharpe is one of the best guards I've seen in a while. He looks like a pro. Strong with the ball and is a killer
I’m not feeling good about this! We made the list but who knows anymore. Seems like we are decoration the past few years for top guys.
Maybe Cal can fork some of that money to some businesses to entice some Top players. Seems like we are always the bridesmaid and not the bride since 2015. Our luck is bound to change.
I'll ask my friend but I have no personal clue. I do know that friend said that UK staff did a great job with his official visit and Duren really liked the program's pitch and staff/team. Being in position they were in for so long.....it is usually a bad visit or not getting along with team/coaches that changes things but in this case that wasn't a factor.
Me too...either Cal and his staff are who we think they are or not
Funny how the frauds in durham can lock up 2 kids in a week and Cal and company can't. Something is off.
Where is this talk coming from that we were in such great position for a long time?
Wasn't the consensus that he was never playing college basketball until very recently? How can you lead for a kid no one expects to commit anywhere?
We weren't even favorites for 2022 Duren in most people's eyes, that was Michigan if I remember right. It was even more of an uphill battle with 2021 Duren considering our roster
