Freeman committed

He's a troll. Just a troll that's been here longer than mnraw and the other trolls
Maybe, but it's not my UK coaching career at stake. Mark Pope is the one that needs to find someonepersonally, I would find someone overseas, or wait for guys to pull out of the draft. I'd love to get the kid from Santa Clara
But, getting a top 15 portal guy does you no good if he's injured and in a boot. At that point, the 900th ranked guy is better.
You think Graves would want to play here. None of these West coast guys ever come. Paulius Muraskas doesn’t want to play here at all and will probably follow his coach. He already had a decent foreign 4 and he left him. Yeah he wasn’t perfect but he is probably about the level player he can get over there.

Starting to feel like we should have just kept Mo and Jelevic.
No doubt but they didn’t wanna stay lol. Both dipped fast as hell.
Actually MoD JUST committed elsewhere this last week. We made no effort to keep him.
I didn't think Wilkins, Butler, Brea, Robinson, or Aberdeen would come to UK either, but they did.
None of us personally knows these kids, so we have no clue whether they are interested or not.
Heck, forget West coast kids, didn't Jelevic and Big Z come from overseas? If you can pull european dudes, you can get a kid from Santa Clara
To be fair, Jelavic and big z are no longer here and they did quite a bit of nothing
That's besides the point, not sure what yiur point is. Did they come to UK, or not?
What they did here, doesn't have znytjing to do with it.
Lamont Butler was from SDSU, he did something here.
The point is why do you think Pope can scout European kids properly, in terms of jelavic
That was before his reputation was totally ruined.
What the absolute f*ck does that have to do with a west coast kid coming, or not coming to UK?
I brought up the 2 European kids to show that getting a West coast kid isn't that big a deal.
If you want to talk about Z and Jelevic, fine, but that's a different conversation. What they did here, has nothing to do with Pope recruiting kids from California.
Okay. Granted. Has Pope recruited to the level of a blue blood program? Absolutely not
Again, wtf does that have to do with the conversation I was having, that you jumped into?
You keep trying to play this stupid GOTCHA game with me, but it makes no sense, I'm not a Mark Pope fan.
This board has gone to sh*t.
If that were the case then Wright and Freeman would be signed as Well. Our offer was a million more last Wednesday and he still didn’t sign. It’s more than $$.
No, that's not true. Freeman's camp didn't want UK, but lets be real here, it's not like he went to UConn and he just played for Syracuse for 2 years. Sometbing , something stones and glass house.
Rob Wright was looking to get overpaid, totally different situation than what we are talking about here. Wright was happy at BYU, but he was looking for a massive payday that he thought he could get.
It sunk before Pope got here, but Pope is getting the brunt of the hate that Cal is partly responsible for.
Again though, that's a totally different topic.
I wasn't looking for satisfaction. I really don't care if you agree with anything I say, it doesn't matter. I simply made a statement.
I suspect you are right. A young big man, with foot problems since high school, demanding millions, is a road Pope went down last season, and it led him off a cliff
