Joe Tipton: A leader has emerged for Momcilovic

[gtown965]

 

[PeePeePooPoo]

Would love to have Mommy’s Milkers on the team. Need to keep him away from Pope and just let him meet with Williams and the team.

 

[Pygmy Sasquatch]

Nothing new really unless the Pete Nakos sources thing is new.

 

[Beatle Bum]

If he merely quotes Norlander, people should demand their money back.

 

[Im The Village Idiot]

Nothing new really unless the Oete Nakos sources thing is new.

Kentucky is the leader. Louisville not ruled out. Everyone else is a longshot.

Or just use a paywall remover

 

[OliverSimmonsTwinBrother]

Jerry only charged 50 cents for his scoops and you got the entire paper with it. I wished he would have passed that onto his son.

Thanks man, I just ran it through archive. What a nothing tweet.

 

[Cole World]

Idk if this is accurate given the username of the Twitter account quoting Tipton

 

[Threedognight]

What he say?

 

[Pygmy Sasquatch]

What he say?

That sources tell him (Tipton) and Nakos that Kentucky has emerged as the favorite for Momcilovic.

That's verbatim from the article.

In the “old” recruiting model, being the “leader” meant a little more than it does today… Now, the “leader” is the program that just got off the phone with the player’s agent, and the agent is playing the media to get a better offer from the next “leader” they are about to get in the phone with.

In the NIL era, the “leader” is the program the player and agent are using as leverage, to get the deal from the team the player actually wants to go to.

I would disagree with your last sentence, but agree with the rest in that agents are now the ones responsible for spreading rumors in their and their clients favor instead of from actual accurate sources.

 

[Wildcat_in_DC]

i kind of feel uk has been the leader on this for a while now. everything else is just noise/positioning from agents/etc

Louisville on the dot.

If UL gets him, 2 of their small forward commits will go back to the portal.

 

[Anon687865]

Extend Pope...lifetime contract

 

[DudahUK]

Or just use Archive

What’s this?

You would think something would shake.

It's a paywall remover

Edited to add: See Ganner's post below. I did't know this site was risky, I'd used it for a long time before this. I've removed the link. Thanks to Ganner for pointing that out.

 

[rivercatinfl]

The suspense is killing me! Just commit man. Come on.

FYI that site was caught editing cached articles and using site visitors' browsers to launch ddos attacks against their critics.

Oh okay. That’s cool. I’ve heard of it before I’m pretty sure. Appreciate ya.

I did not know that. Thank you.

I actually thinks this whole saga shows how pathetic Pope is as a recruiter. UK has the money and the minutes and he still is hesitating to come here. Why would he consider going to Louisville? They're already loaded probably less money. There's something about Pope or he would've already committed. He's thinking hard over something that really should be easy. The fact that Kelsey is even able to get him to consider to Louisville is amazing in and of itself.

Can they? I thought the portal closed

I do not think they can.

Jody said if we get him the staff thinks everone stays at Louisville

The only two forwards Louisville has really are guys that averaged 8 and 4 for their teams last year.

Shelstad is good
Really good 2 spot with Wooley and Montgomery
Knox
Alvaro
Great 5 spot with Flory and Obinna

Pretty obvious why they’ve also dug deep into the piggy bank for Milan. The 3/4 is their weak spot(depending on how much they go 2 big with Flory and Obinna together)

Louisville also hasn’t wasted real money on non rotation players like we did last year.

Been a lot of local talk radio speculation that the HS center plays PF.

Makes sense. I expect them to do 2 bigs a lot. Kansas did as well with Flory and Tiller.

 

[DudahUK]

Can they? I thought the portal closed

Oh that’s a good point. I believe it’s only if a coaching change at this point.

 

[CELTICAT]

Let’s see if the Joe Tipton kiss of death holds true or finally breaks.

 

[Hitman206]

If UL releases them which they will if they are recruited over.

 

[Hitman206]

Knox will definitely leave.

Which is smart. Play the guys you pay to win games. Have some depth for periodic breaks. Have emergency guards in case.

It’s a money game.

No different than Acadan Lewis getting out of his commitment after UK signed Lowe and Aberdeen.
