Dickinson straight from his mouth …insinuates Oscar not returning
- Thread starter JST390-2
- Start date
I’m not saying he isn’t interested, but if you listened to that interview and felt UK was at the top of the list based on what he said and his tone then you’re way more optimistic than I am. And I get called a sunshine pumper lol.
Henderson and Devendorf were some of the most abrasive yet fun players to watch. Much rather have arrogant trash talkers than can back it up then whatever pussywillow regimen that Duke’s players go through to end up so typically Duke.
He is really cocky, and I don’t know about Michigan fans being excited or not they may have been. From Kentuckys perspective if he wants to come here they can’t say no. Oscar isn’t making a decision until late may, and Kentucky needs a center, so you have to take Dickinson. I honestly have a small feeling he may be using Kentucky to get more money from Kansas, Maryland and gtown
Andrew Slater made a comment that Kansas is all in on him.
I do think he is waiting on Oscar. If Oscar leaves it's probably 50/50 Kansas/Kentucky. Nova is a dark horse.
Yeah I think he is on a visit right now or is going on one there, you know they are going to make an insane offer to him. I think Kentucky is all in or close to it on him as well
Yeah it's unusual for Cal to fly in to see a transfer that way.Makes me think Oscar has told UK he's likely gone but doesn't want it public yet.
All three of those guys were heads and shoulders above Oscar for one reason or another.
Russell played above the rim (WAY above the rim), and was a fantastic scorer.
Chuck Hayes was a better ball handler and distributor, and way better defender than Oscar. He also more love for UK than most guys that have ever been here. He's the quintessential teammate. Guys in the NBA would also agree.
Rodman was an elite defender and rebounder at the NBA level. Apparently he was very, very good at the collegiate level. One has to read his story to learn why he played where he did in college.
You're going to have to drop a few rings on the ladder to find players comparable to Oscar. It isn't fair to Oscar to compare him to those three guys.
Sounds to me like Oscar told the staff a few days ago that he wanted to come back. Then, something happened IMO. Maybe Cal talked him into staying in the draft, idk. But, Geoff on HOB didn’t just pull the “Oscar is returning” out of his ***. He absolutely heard that. Just odd all the way around.
We've had a bunch of pu**ies on our teams for years now. I can't stand Duke and the crazies, but UK seriously needs to do some self introspection.
Actually wasn’t comparing them to Oscar, but using them as proof you can be a devastating player Without emphasis on scoring. I don’t think Hayes was head and shoulders above Oscar. Both are warriors on the court.
He won’t have a bushel of missed bunnies either. 20% of Oscars rebounds were from his own missed shots.
Or Cal is willing to fly to Michigan just to let Oscar know he shouldn’t come back. Then Oscar leaves and Dickinson goes somewhere else.
What should he do?Wait around for Oscar to decide and lose out on other options.If Oscar leaves at the last minute we are screwed either way.
This guy is usually right when he says stuff, but I don’t know why they wouldn’t take a commitment if Dickinson were ready to commit
Oh really, what have we been wrong about? Oh I know, we sll thought Cal could go further in the tournament and maybe NOT lose to South Carolina at home. Yup, we were definitely wrong about those things. Ya got us.
But back to Hunter's comments, if you can’t read between the lines, that’s on you.
Thanks Ellen. Have some brownies ready for his dumb *** when he gets back.
Russel, Hayes and Rodman were great, but can you find a single player like them in the NBA presently? Draymond Greene, but he can score.
WOW, and he only gets 9 mil to do all of that
Earned not given lol....or is it given not earned lately?
Every team is probably all in on him. Just because it’s Kansas are you scared? It’s all semantics depending on the dramatic writer.
Scared? I don't care where he goes. And I don't know anything about him first hand, but he comes off as kind of an *** in my opinion. I also heard that a lot of Michigan fans are glad he's leaving. I was simply responding to a conversation I was in with @Dontworryboutit23
I'm sorry but that guy doesn't know anything the rest of us don't "know". Anyone reading this board could have said that. In fact, that's probably what he did.
6 offensive rebounds per game from 1 player does lead to points. Guaranteed extra opportunities every game. Dickinson is a better all around offensive player but he only averaged 1 more bucket a game than Oscar.
Did I watch a different video?
Didn’t insinuate he was gone.. maybe that it was a legitimate possibility.
Also his word choice to be made it sound like he has very little interest in coming here. Was a few hours ago so not an exact quote but it was like, for me to even have slight interest obviously there can’t be Oscar. It wasn’t “ Kentucky is a place I would love to be if there situation works out”

Yeah he wasn’t sacred man, he was just having a conversation with me, he doesn’t have any reason to be scared with as loaded as duke will be next year
I don’t know, this guy actually has connections to Kentucky, he usually says stuff way before it comes out
Personally, I haven't seen it. I don't think anyone has any insider info in these times.
You mean make up random ******** that nobody actually said.
Too much to list that you’ve been wrong about. So I’ll list what you’ve been right about. I’ll get back to you on that.
Don’t think there is skill close to that in the NBA now. I gave up watching the NBA long ago. Pathetic basketball. Very unskilled, one dimensional play. Some offensive acrobatics but mostly one on one fan candy.
People just be making up stuff Kentucky did not offer Dickinson 4 million dollars
i don't believe this for a second. From what I found online, there isn't a single men's college basketball player out there making even half that. Why would he all of a sudden get that kind of deal?
This. Ppl are overestimating Reeves roll if he comes back as well…I’d personally play him as many minutes as possible but he was our best scorer all year even in the Bahamas and exhibition play and Cal let him ride the bench down the stretch of the MSU game (after the game saying “maybe I should have put Antonio in and let him get buckets”)…..and then to start SEC play Cal had our him back into a spot minutes role and he was playing 13-17 minutes until injuries in our backcourt and Toppin from the South Carolina game on. Cal was forced to play him and he took off and became our biggest weapon.
The only game after that that we had a full roster was Florida at home and guess what?…Cal played him less than 20 minutes again. Cal will play his freshmen first and then anyone else like Livingston who has a chance at the NBA bc measurables but lacks skills but is still young enough for the infamous “potential” to be pushed.
That and Kentucky doesn’t offer anybody money or deals up front at all
