Oscar should come back.

[smooth as butter]

I would like to see him come back if he can.

 

[RRgo]

He can’t

I would like to see him come back if he can.

 

[smooth as butter]

He can’t

Oh Ok

 

[cmallory]

He can’t

Why can’t he?

 

[UKAlum07]

Why can’t he?

NCAA won't allow it.

NCAA won't allow it.

I thought they changed the rule this year. If you go undrafted, u can return

That was the rule in the past, hence how Randolph Morris came back. They've since changed it.


Tbh though, I don't know what I'm talking about.

 

[Lempface]

No thanks, I'm ready to move on. I don't have any basis other than body language observations and teammate interviews but I don't think he was the best teammate and was at least part of the locker room issues over the last few seasons.

He can't... https://www.kentucky.com/sports/college/kentucky-sports/uk-basketball-men/article276685451.html

Not even close to correct.

Note: Oscar isn't coming back though. I think both parties were ready to move on.

Actually, I'm more correct, than you. That article is flat out wrong. There was a proposal back in 2018 to put something like that in place but it was never approved.

Maybe he gets picked up later or goes overseas to play. Good luck to him!

 

[OldSmoky]

woulda, coulda, shouda, it makes no difference hes not coming back. you may as well get on the boat before it leaves the dock.

 

[BBNinSC_rivals62411]

I would be shocked if he comes back, but I do love surprises

 

[tomrain]

I do find it somewhat strange that immediately after the draft ended there are pages of undrafted players announcing and signing immediately. Almost all the noteworthy ones, except Oscar?

A student-athlete may enter a professional basketball league’s draft without jeopardizing his collegiate eligibility, provided:

...

d. He is not drafted by any team.

 

[RalphDaltonFan]

Time to move on. He's gone. It was mutal for him/program and nothing bad about him/teammates, etc...he wanted this. The conflicting talk came from the leeches around him who were causing issues for Oscar and Kentucky in terms of latter wanting to avoid a PR nightmare.

NCAA won't allow it.

He can come back but he won’t

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

"I don't usually tell 5th year seniors to 'move on', but when I do, I make sure it's when I'm referring to the best rebounder in school history, a two-time first-team All-American, a former NPOY, and a guy who averaged 20 points and 20 rebounds through three tournament games."

Good call, "time to move on", crowd. You guys look absolutely brilliant.

You seem to have missed items b and c, which state that, no later than 10 days after the NBA combine, a player has to both withdraw from the draft and declare their intention to return to college in writing.

I don't care how he can come back but if he can I hope he does.

 

[bpfree]

Don't talk yourselves into believing he's going to come back. He made the decision to leave, and he has to live with it. The rule to be able to come back has never been ratified by the NCAA and there's never been another player use this rule since it was discussed in 2018.
