Would love to have Kohler, big strong and smart. But I would be surprised if he were to leave Izzo.
How can an alleged fan of UK Basketball be so terrified of other teams recruiting? If you're scared, come crawl in my pocket, I'll protect you SMH
He will make it hard for Chandler, when he goes back to BYU. He's a great player, hope he gets over his injury, where ever he goes.

It's a no-brainer. This guy(Mitchell) can elevate his in-game performance even if he's already having a fantastic game and become nearly unstoppable during times of the game.. Him with Momcilovic? Good ******* luck stopping that offense.

You’re always whining. Stop being a Vincent Pastore.
Hmm maybe we should win something and fans wouldn't "whine". Can't wait until we finally get a real coach and go back to winning at the correct rate for this program.
Dude is like 30 years old already. Coming back to college would be a total loser move when you're already drafted. Time to move on.
Hope to God this whole thing is washed - it's going to be a big asterisk of a season. All the top coaches had their rosters set, so this will only help coaches like Will Wade.
He's 24 and a hell of a player, you only missed him by 6 years. Making fkn millions is a loser move?
We will never get him, but he would change our team big time.
He'll be 25 in September. The sport needs some boundaries are this point. We have 25 year old playing with 17 year olds now? Why not open up CBB to 30 year old that didn't get a full 5 years of college ball? Maybe there are some 2019 grads out there that didn't get a full 5 years. Make it looks like the local YMCA.
Good lord the NCAA sucks - what a mess. If 25 year old second rounders that get drafted come back, the sport has honestly turned into a monstrosity. Let all these kids go to Will Wade, slap a giant asterisk on him if they do anything and let everyone else play within some sort of rule system.
Maybe a 17 year old shouldn’t be going to college numb nuts
College doesn’t have an “age” you can literally go at any age
Hey bozo, have you read the new 5/5 rules:
The New Age-Based Rules
- The 5-Year Clock: Gives athletes five total seasons to compete within a strict five-year window tied to turning 19
Stop being a BBN bozo who once new meat hits the wire, you're in the salivation line begging to throw money at the next shiney thing.
Pope already has a solid roster, is through summer practices, building chemistry. Let's now desperately recruit over kids that have been working hard to position themselves in the rotation with a 25 year old. That's going to build amazing chemistry, let me tell you.
I swear, most of the stunads on this board have no idea how to build a program. Zero. They treat building a roster/program like shopping at TJ Maxx.
Top coaches won't touch this group this late in the game. Allowing 25 year old draft picks back into college is such a bastardization of the sport. I hope it doesn't happen.
I don’t want Richie Saunders, I just feel like you sound stupid arbitrarily putting a deadline on a players career.
And buddy your talking about it would ruin the chemistry to bring someone in but newslfash we have an open 15th roster spot we HAVE to fill so it’s going to be someone no matter what
Other than the ruling what reason/ difference is their between a 24 and a 25 year old? Non.
also Why should a kid be punished for taking a gap year or getting injured
Byu and major injury?
Pope's probably already signed him.
The main purpose of NIL is that college players are getting their fair share of the revenue pie and being paid, given they are the product. We should all support that. But there is no other sport out there where players get paid with a looser, more chaotic system. It's a free for all. The NCAA has done literally nothing to govern the chaos, and anything it has done has been fully reactive. We have players on contract overseas being loaned (StJ), kids who have signed contracts with the NBA now back in college (Providence).
College kids won't skip going to the game, but at some point the sport needs some integrity. This 2022 rule was passed, now they're talking about 2021 class that didn't lapse their eligibility raising suit. It's a clusterfuck.
Even this 5/5 rule - do we really want to see the same kids at the college level for 5 years?
Where do you draw the line? At some point you have to set some structure and precedent. The rules honestly don't seem all that hard. Time. to kill the AJ Storrs of the world.

I swear I'm not being a smart as s or being a troll when I say this but man...are you ..not literally you but are you going to sit here and see the college game and the world today and say the word integrity? We didn't draw the line 30 years ago. It is what it is.
In the meantime, you’ll just spend your time bitching and complaining. Makes sense.

Sure, integrity was thrown out the window a long time ago when John Wooden was boostering money to Lew Alcindor, but at least there was some structure back then. Kids looked and acted like college students, even if they didn't go to class. Now we're talking about Jimmy Saunders getting drafted and coming back to college at a 25 years old.
You’re right. Bro, our home court is named after a guy who was known to pay $50 per game to each of our players. We are Kentucky, the villain of college basketball.
We hang banners for these:
And not these:
Nothing about money was mentioned. This is simply about adding a player. No one knows what the price is or what UK is willing to spend. The lineup with Mitchell is simple…Diallo, Wilkens, Mom, Mitchell, Moreno.
All this said, appears there’s no interest. No surprised.
Correct. Sorta like the Brayden Smith stuff last year. So silly.
Pope gonna Pope.
Sure hope the new AD was serious when he said adding a bball GM is high on his lists of things to explore.

For sure. We should all stick out our chests…showing our confidence…the last two seasons and this offseason certainly warrants that.
And you will spend your time being ignorantly confident in what’s been going on with the basketball program the past 26 or so months?
If this is allowed to go through I think UK probably only adds a depth piece. I think that’s why they reached out to the guy from UNLV. Not somebody that will rock the boat and frustrate current players.
If Saunders came back for another year it would be a hard no. It would be JQ 2.0 and foolish to bring in another player coming off of a major knee injury

Most likely nothing, but just posting stuff in here that’s relevant to the new 5 for 5
Money has to be mentioned. Otherwise you living a pipe dream thinking yea they just love Kentucky and want to come.
BS
So you don't think guys like Mitchell or Saunders would help Kentucky, just because they are a late addition?
I would love to have Butler back another year, with Saunders, and MM.
Damn
I could even think #9 was a real possibility
