How are those guys going to be eligible. They never even entered the transfer portal and whatever that judge ruled on will probably get overturned...or did I miss a bit of info somewhere? Haven't been on here as much so I could've missed something
I really don’t understand it all either, but I’ve got to believe our staff wouldn’t be putting any effort into recruiting these guys here, at least without thinking they’re going to be eligible. I hope not anyway. With the way everything has gone the last few years, it’s almost a certainty that they’ll be able to play whenever they want. Crazy times for sure.

We have had Barnhart for 25 years. Always played it safe. No chances. The NCAA has rewarded every team that said FU. Got their guys eligible.
Mark my words. The first time UK takes that chance, the NCAA will hire Johnny Cochran , spend 10 million and beat it. Bet.

17 year old kid. He has time. Hopefully Hampton rubs off on him
Did Osaruyi reclassify up a grade already? Regardless, I think it’s probably good that rosters have expanded to 15. That allows you to stash a reclassification kid (or even two) – and it looks like reclassification will become the thing with the money now available – who are not really going to help you win the 1st year but might be ready to play by year two. Centers in particular could be good reclassification candidates as they might even be able to give you a few minutes defensively/rim protection without costing a game.

If They hire that dead lawyer the NCAA has bigger things brewing.

That would be difficult to do considering he’s dead.
We can get Jackie Chiles cheap!
