Matt Jones on a Twitter space right now:

- UK was 100% certain they were getting Dickinson and Keshad Johnson
- let Oscar leave because they knew they were getting Dickinson
- Cal’s mind was changed on collectives after Dickinson and Oscar’s decisions and the Reeves deal
- someone “very connected to UK” is running the new collective. Great person to lead this
- Cal stepping away and now letting people do what needs to be done for NIL
- not sure on Reeves. Thought he was coming back but now they’ve gone quiet
- Cal is alienated from main donors. However, new donors are stepping up and are big time funders. Not UK people, they are Cal people

The Reeves stuff needs to be finalized, one way or another. We're going on mid-June now. This feels like the long process when we waited for Randolph Morris years ago.

Cal has talked about Cal alienating big donors for a long time. Not good even if others have stepped up.

The problem for Reeves is he can’t really go anywhere else unless he graduates and that doesn’t seem to be occurring

Last week there was a rumor he had returned to Illinois State to take enough classes to graduate. There was even a screen grab of his student contact info, although I never heard it confirmed and it could have easily just been an artifact from when he was at the school before.

Has anyone confirmed if he's still at UK or at ISU or somewhere else?

That big clutch will have a career day against our young bigs. He will taunt Cal and UK fans with every make and blocked shots.

I hope just the opposite but have to be realistic it would be our luck.

Found it finally, I’m not doubting the guy but a guy who manages arenas basically saying reeves is at ISU when he says he was at philly and Oregon I don’t see the connection or how he would know. But there’s to much smoke out right now with reeves returning to Kentucky

I don’t think Reeves’s alleged enrollment at ISU weighs in favor or against his return to UK. If anything, Reeves has proven himself adept at keeping options open. I have no inside info, but I’m optimistic for his return.

You love what exactly? Winning or having Cal run the program? Because he hasn't been winning the last few years. So what do you love? I get a kick out of these fly-by posts.

They must think they are getting everyone because they whiffed on both for being 100% certain lmfao. “Letting” Oscar go for anyone is the dumbest thing I’ve heard all off-season. Man this staff is dumb.

If they are ranked in top20 when we play them odds would be against us.
