Show me a top 10 recruit in basketball that has enrolled early, not played that year and then returned the next year. If there are any, it's extremely rare.
Ones that pan out never. Maybe you have some Bradshaw types who did but few and far between enrolling early. Usually they are extreme legit if they move up a class or back to their original class.

We better hope that he isn't a two sport athlete because if he decides to play for the mens volleyball team the pros will offer him the whole bank plus an island 🏝️.

If these guys come early and are getting paid they need to play.
This makes zero since in 5 for 5. There is no redshirt or just joining a team. The second he steps on campus. His five year NIL earnings clock is ticking. Zero chance this happens. Zach Eady developed 4 years at Purdue. No one is coming early to develop anymore. 5-5.

If that happens he is 100% going the Sharpe route. He isn't so excited to "train" and get on campus just because he loves Kentucky.
And honestly, Pope would be the perfect sucker to play this on.

“Are you an honest dude like I’m an honest dude?”

yes

“I believe people until they give me a reason not to, pay the guy and give his handler a job”

Golden, Oats, Wade - Look at this dumbass.
