Zoom News

[FitchandMurray29]

Zoom Diallo gained Malachi Moreno and maybe more noteworthy, KentuckyMBB as followers on Instagram.

As someone that’s addicted like everyone else, I can confirm neither of those accounts followed him a day or two ago.

My dumb read is this one is done and they’re working on the social announcement.

****Pope can always Pope disclaimer

 

[TheKentuckyKid]

Glad he's locked down.

 

[moses1uk]

I need some good news just to have a good nights sleep

 

[GACatsFan7]

Just because I follow adult stars celebrities on Instagram doesn't mean they're coming over later.

 

[JimboBBN]

He's a good first get. He really is. He's not as good as Rob but he at least opens up some more cash for other transfers (Freeman, Wilkins) who are both really good players that we might not have had room for, otherwise.

Probably won't get anyone, not sure why I'm trying to stay positive lol

 

[TristanGoCats]

That’s good news, but you never know sometimes these things dont end up meaning anything

 

[MachineHead]

I will believe he has committed only from a trusted source, or the kid himself. Otherwise, Pope is gonna Pope

 

[JPFisher]

He's a good first get. He really is.

Still unconfirmed. Don't get too comfortable with the idea until he signs.

Yeah thats true like pope’s first year we didn’t need a superstar that cost 4 million at point guard we had Lamont butler who probably cost like 1 million we just need someone who could distribute and run the offense

 

[TX Wildcat]

I do hope this is true.

However, just as he heats up in games next season, we will see him pulled thanks to analytics which tell Pope he was playing too well and must be fatigued.

Diallo does absolutely nothing for me. He is not a star and is not even as good as Aberdeen was. He's a fine 4th or 5th option.

Aberdeen: ORtg = 121.3, DRtg = 114.4 (+6.9 points per 100 possessions), OWS = 2.6, DWS = 0.9
Diallo: ORtg = 114.7, DRtg = 112.5 (+2.2 points), OWS = 2.3, DWS = 0.9

 

[NociHTTP]

They're following him to make sure he's got good character and can touch money.

J/K

 

[MaysviileKY]

We still need the PG from Colgate.

That's our class of player now.

Yeah well he is the best point guard left in the portal who do want to play point?? Mark Fox??

We still need the PG from Colgate.

We needed Wright and Stokes (we all know we aren't getting him)but we still have Pope as coach so there is that.

 

[RunninRichie]

Diallo and Noah will be a top 5 backcourt in America.

That team was full of dudes that had played a pretty decent level of college basketball for four years. Apples and oranges to what is happening now.

 

[OliverSimmonsTwinBrother]

If we could get him, Wilkins, and Freeman I'd fewl better

Means nothing unless it actually happens.

Well thanks for the revelation Captain Obvious!!!

 

[St.Patterson_54_]

Zoom is the best option currently still on the board. Which isn't saying much, but getting him is better than the alternative of NOT getting him.

 

[TheKentuckyKid]

Who needs a pg when you Reece Potter.

 

[St.Patterson_54_]

Who would have that that it might be EVEN HARDER to dribble the ball across half court in 2026 than it was in 2025?

 

[NociHTTP]

We still need the PG from Colgate.

Maybe he'll freshen up things. Possibly even help us get to the crest of this mountain of problems.
