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.
So we might get Diallo, but we might not? That's the information I'm here for.

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.
They definitely can't match our offer. Sad thing he he likes them better but I still believe $$$$ talks. Our Donors have done well to step up for us, now the staff has to close the deals. Time for Mo to shine.

If 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.
It could happen I suppose. But I would not expect one from Stokes if he indeed still has a visit to Arizona. Unless he just wants to end it once and for all.

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.
Michigan and Iowa both had well-constructed rosters complimented by really solid coaching. UK had Oweh, Garrison, Quaintance, Dioubate, et al. But remind me again about the world-class portal roster assembled by Mark Pope and their blowout wins over UofL, Gonzaga, Georgia, Missouri et al?

Just shut up dude. Unlike Rainmaker, there is not one single person on this site that is interested in anything you have ever posted. You contribute ZERO to this board.
I have about as much inside information as Rainmaker does. He just loves the attention. If he was the big baller insider he says he is then he wouldn't spend all day on Rafters. He's just like everyone else, he sees some twitter post then piggybacks on it and acts as if he has an inside scoop. Like I said, it is all about the attention. That's why if you read between his lines, you can see he always leaves himself an out. He's playing you people for fools. He doesn't know anything more than anyone else here does. He's guessing just like everyone else.

I mean , I’ve been reading his posts. We’ll see how things turn out and then I’ll judge for myself. It’s not like I’m betting money on things he‘s saying.

Rainmaker always talks like he has inside info and then he’s wrong half the time. So he’s about on par with KSR.
Not sure why this troll has such beef with him.
I guess the beef is that he is just seeking attention by pretending to be privy to info he obviously doesn't have. It's insulting. Hell half the actual insiders don't have a freaking clue. So Rainmaker from Rafters certainly doesn't. I'd stop trolling him if he'd just admit he truly doesn't have anymore knowledge than anyone else. I can't believe more people can't see right through it.

I've actually claimed time and time again I am not an insider. I post things I hear on here from time to time because that's what message boards are for. Insiders don't exist they are all retelling what they've heard and then once its basically official they race to be the first to report it. I'm not interested in that at all, simply here to talk Kentucky sports with fellow BBN fans.

Yeah you’re cool, man. I’m not knocking ya. You just speak with authority, I guess. No grammar errors and you don’t call the coach “Mark Poop” so you can pass for an insider, lol

Had a meatloaf microwave meal at work last night. Was surprisingly good after I loaded it up with salt and pepper.
I could go for a meatloaf sandwich. Maybe I should go with a microwave meatloaf sandwich. Since I don't have any actual meatloaf, and Foodlion is right down the street.

Someone (you) realizes now that your failed criticism of a Furman player was just stupid and now you want to somehow move the ball. Drop the strawman arguments and take a seat on the bench. You’re in over your head.

You joined 53 minutes ago brother, sorry your other account got banned. I'm sure mom will have your meatloaf ready shortly.

Kansas can pay whatever they want.

They just are not getting into a bidding war.
