Yep. CB should hit Wednesday-Thursday. He’s filming his announcement video today. Decision is done and would be a shock if it’s not IU. Trilly reposted and pinned 11 gif. Might mean good news on the reclass kids for UK.
Fland down to 3
- Thread starter DaDirtyLeb69
- Start date
Yeah I think Kentucky gets some 25 guys and gets a portal guy maybe 2. I would be fine with that
Jasper Johnson (reclass)
Peterson (reclass)
Richmond
Knox
Quaintance
Cyril
Get 3-4 guys back and fill in the blanks with portal guys.

If he doesn't we are in deep **** next season because Cal is doing terrible with this recruiting class.
I could be wrong, but I feel like Sheppard will be back for year two.
We will get players, I’m glad he isn’t holding out all season like Duke tells their recruits to do that we think we have a chance. Keeps us from getting better players.
Rob is telling everyone around him he is here for one season no matter what.
Anyone expecting year 2 from Dillingham is living in fantasy land. It's the same old story. You've read this book for 12 years, folks. Figure it out.
If he's going to be drafted somewhere in the first 2 rounds and that's what he wants, then fine. If, as you say, he's already made it clear he's only playing one-year regardless, then the staff should be prepared for that. I would hope, however, that if he leaves after one year it is for the professional ranks and is not a transfer situation.
Don't underestimate the billionaire money that IU has to play with. They are up there with NIL money.
Dillingham won’t be back.
Sheppard returning is a possibility.
Hart should return.
A fairly realistic scenario for 24-25:
G Sheppard/Johnson
G Peterson/Richmond/Hart
G Knox/Thiero
F Quaintance/Burks
F Onyenso/Cyril
That’s a good squad, at least on paper.
Fland is too close to call. Bama is out of it. Seems like people are hearing IU and others hearing UK.
There gonna have to get a grad transfer or two who can score
Yeah zero buzz for anyone except IU . UK will get their guys . Rarely worry about recruiting .
I feel the same way most years but this recruiting season feels different.
Are we really worrying, complaining and predicting a bad roster for 2024-2025, in October of 2023?
From who? Almost everywhere online it’s IU buzz. Just curious who is still saying UK at this point?
2 heavily involved in recruiting are hearing good things about UK.
We will find out soon, sounds like diversion from one side to make the announcement have some appeal.
Boogie "Demarcus" Fland, just switch their nicknames and first names
Trilly and Andrew slater are the two I trust the most now, and one has already hinted at IU, but a lot can change between now and Friday I guess we will see
Yea, those guys are saying IU then it's done.
One of the two I referred to that was hearing good things about UK, said it's possible it's a smoke screen.
It’s still close. Trilly rarely gets it wrong but he has twice. Both times last month. All the guys who have been saying IU still say IU.
Both sides are confident right now. Wait to see CB movement tomorrow or Thursday
That's just not good enough, bucs. "5-star" equates to talent that provides a lot of future potential. What is generally lacking is consistent efficiency, good decisions and perimeter shooting. The best college players are overwhelmingly upperclassmen because they have had time to mature and develop.
If UK is going to have its best shot at competing for a title (or even an SEC championship) they need better college players - and where those players are predicted to be drafted doesn't necessarily determine that. One freshman in the starting lineup is ok. Two maybe works if enough developed scorers and shooting from good upperclassmen is alongside. Freshmen in a supplemental (i.e., backup) role that first year is fine. But in my opinion, 3 freshmen in the starting lineup means any hope of making a title run is over before it begins.
Oh know! If there's one thing Calipari sucks at, it's recruiting!! This is the #20 best player in the class (cumulative), have some perspective.
