Yes, the counterargument to "creepy" is, if he intends to play in the NBA someday, he better get used to people filming him in public...
Lots of high quality portal starters come form lower level schools, even the final four teams from this past year and the prior year. Keep trolling though, you do you.Yeah, and that’s the problem currently infecting UK basketball: A dude from Furman could make the starting rotation.
Totally legal and honestly, encouraged.Hypothetical question:
If a feller was doing his court ordered community service and happened to be near the #1 ranked recruit would it be rude to ask him to promote an upcoming yard sale on his Instagrams Ticktocks? The guy would pay the recruit 10 bucks.
Id laugh my *** off if he drug it out to the point that he was stuck going to a no-name school.The difference today is the portal and NIL, schools only have so much money and schools can’t afford to wait very long. If Stokes drags this out schools may use a lot of their money on other players. His agent knows that.
None this year.What final four team would he have started on this year?
Rob Wright deal being finalized I hear, official announcement coming tomorrow. Fingers crossed this is the first domino to many more to come.

In that pic it makes him look pissed at the talent.Pope lands all three and they need to remake the movie Blue ChipsView attachment 1255562
I saw it and was worried that we hired Mick CroninIn that pic it makes him look pissed at the talent.
Not today but I know we have ramped it up with Wilkins and Cox who were already targets but Staff has spoke with both of them and their agents today. The tea Leaves there leads me to believe either Diallo isn't interested once we get Wright or that the staff shifted directions. Would not surprise me if we still get Diallo but I don't think we get him, Stokes, Freeman and Wright. I believe it will be 2-3 of that group we end up with.Have you heard anything about diallo?
That's AI for ya.In that pic it makes him look pissed at the talent.
I just wanted to go off topic and say thanks for your updates.

I understand why he wouldn’t want to come if we get wright but I feel like they would really complement each other.

I just share what I hear, definitely don't bat 1,000 but this is a message board after all so we are here to chat and share what we hear. I'm hoping for a huge week, I believe it happens.I just wanted to go off topic and say thanks for your updates. Much appreciated!
Ìts mot a commitment. It’s a purchseIf there are no commitments by Wednesday, Pope is likely cooked. Why? Because they will have heard Kentucky's best spiel at that point. You can't let these dudes get off campus without a commitment.
I don’t mean to keep bugging you but from what you hear what players are you most confident we land?I just share what I hear, definitely don't bat 1,000 but this is a message board after all so we are here to chat and share what we hear. I'm hoping for a huge week, I believe it happens.
You don’t have to apologize for asking a legitimate question. You’re not bothering him, you’re giving him what he wants; attention.I don’t mean to keep bugging you but from what you hear what players are you most confident we land?

Dude from UAB led UM to a B1G championship and a National Championship. Bennet Stirtz is a PG UK fans would have loved at UK. X Lee started every game for SEC champs this year. Dude from Furman? Tell us about his skills instead of dismissing him because he went to Furman.Yeah, and that’s the problem currently infecting UK basketball: A dude from Furman could make the starting rotation.
Hear from whom? Old lady in a nursing home? Mark Pope? Someone on the spectrum in between?I just share what I hear, definitely don't bat 1,000 but this is a message board after all so we are here to chat and share what we hear. I'm hoping for a huge week, I believe it happens.
and before UAB Yaxel was at Arizona Western a Junior College. Lots of talent out there outside the power 4 schools.Dude from UAB led UM to a B1G championship and a National Championship.

Makes sense why they had that for Diallo then. Just like the NIL numbers.Anyone who gets the first visit from a player automatically gets 100 percent for them on on3. It's a dumb AI system
When I shared the post, it read "UK heavy favorites for Wright", they changed the post in the time I copied and pasted.This don’t seem promising at all
False alarm. Apparently Pope doesn't want to utilize all the tools available to him and isnt gonna show the recruits Sand Gap park. 🫠Hypothetical question:

Word is KU can't pay him. That's why Bidunga bounced. They couldn't meet his ask. And if they can't meet his ask, they sure as heck can't get Stokes his ask.Id laugh my *** off if he drug it out to the point that he was stuck going to a no-name school.
I'd say Wright and any 4 off that list would be an improvement over the roster we had this past year. Wright, Stokes, and 4 players a tier below these would be amazing.Wright
Goode
Wilkins
Stokes
Freeman
Reibe
Cox
Murauskas
Diallo
Brown
in order of current confidence top to bottom. If we get Stokes probably only get 3-4 more off this list. If we don't we get 5-6, plus a few backup options either way.
