I was thinking about if he comes or goes elsewhere and I’m not counting out our forwards just yet. I know I know they aren’t 5* etc etc. But just looking at this roster, I think we can be pretty good.
If Hawthorne and Kam are better than we expect, the guards are as promised and Moreno comes back stronger and more aggressive, I don’t see the reason to panic.
Be great to have him but it’s not the end of the world if we miss on him. Pay the money and see where the chips fall.

I remember when UK didn't have to depend on a bunch of IFs to be a good basketball team.

I do as well. I’m just trying to be positive. I’ve seen teams do pretty well with playing together as a team and breaking down the other teams on defense. A lot of these guys are experienced players. That will help from the outset.
I don’t know if this team will be that team but I do think we have talent.

Donavan Freeman from St. John’s and Flory Dibunga from Louisville also follow Milan

but if both Kam and Moreno follow Milan? That’s good sign

That would be the worst financial decision a human being has ever made… So, I’m calling complete BS on this “tweet”!

Also, there’s ZERO chance this guy’s agent would EVER allow that to happen, because if he did, he’s officially finished ever being an agent again!🤣
It would sting the Hell out of the agents pocketbook for sure

It's quite absurd at this point. Never known someone to go to the links he does to continue to troll even after being banned so many times. Sad the board allows it really, clutters up the actual basketball discussion. So many posts started by him and his aliases just to stir the pot, would love to see this board cleaned up. Milan comes to Kentucky and he won't stick around because he won't have anything to troll about anymore until the first loss next season.
I look at the way Pope is treated in general and think its just a trickle down hate for anyone still holding a positive outlook on the program

I am just going to say this. Paying one guy 6+ million creates special locker room issues- Large pay disparities between players will absolutely create problems. Bringing in a guy last, and all he wants to do (can do) is be James Hardin and shoot lights out. Coach's climbing up the jock strap of all the others to defend and rebound as well as score- what can go wrong?
I would agree with a lot of players, Momcilovic isn’t one dimensional like some think though. He isn’t the most athletic player, but He plays his tail off and is an all around player. He can score from all over the court, he just happens to be lethal from distance. I think our guys would love playing with him and this is the biggest stage in College Basketball, I’m sure they all know the deal with the money situation. These guys are professional athletes now. You could be right though, hopefully we’ll see. 😆

If I could like your post 50 times I would. 🤣. Spot on! How in the world could they let the young man just throw away three million EXTRA Dollars for playing one more year in college. Heck it’s maybe more than that if they play it right. Kentucky or not, go get that money young man.

Kam Williams also started following
There’s a guy on Twitter that I believe has been just stating KSBoard info, that said Kam, Malachi, Zoom, and Coach Mikhail led the zoom with Milan this morning.

Not a premium member but that logically makes sense with those guys all now following on IG.

Huge kudos to Kam imo. Milan coming could negatively directly impact him from a PT standpoint yet he still is recruiting Milan to UK

editing to add anon6807 just posted that tweet so that’s what I was referencing with my post

I have a gut feeling (no, it's not lunch or a hangover) that Mom picks UK. I think we (Pope) finally gets one. Everyone knows Pope's style fits Mom perfectly. And we have a giant gap that needs him here. And we have money. I just think it works. The only way it doesn't is if Pope weirds him out. All my gut opinion, of course.

I don't know about that. Depends on how determined he is.
He’s said a few times, or maybe some have reported that he said he’s looking for at least an early 2rd guaranteed contract. If that’s the case and he just really wants to go to the league, money may not be most important to him. I sure hope we get him but it’s whatever his heart tells him I guess. Personally, I’m going after that life changing money. 😆. He would sure make us a different looking team. Won’t be long now either way, but you’d have to think his agent and all his family would want him to have that payday.

If he came to UK would he be more of a 3 or 4?
I view him as a true matchup dependent hybrid forward. Perimeter based offensive and defensive player. Very low rebounding and shot blocking from a “4”.

Try to hide him defensively where you can.

That interchangeability would be valuable as right now we have no clue whether the 3s(Kam/Hawthorne) will need more help or whether the 4s(N’Diaye/McBride) will imo
