As we know Marcus Lee there was no way we were going to look like a final four team with him getting 20 minutes a game. Judging by the comments, Cal was probably letting it out that minutes and roster was the issue. SKJ is way better than Lee and would have taken his share of time. Willis is for sure more important. Bam will get time at the 4 as Hump progresses at a typical rate. To me Lee was simply insurance and was going to be energy/bench role. He thinks he's better than that because big brother says so. Well, ok.

After your Newman and then Murray assessments I'm not sure we should accept your scouting abilities...
I guarantee you that Humphries would of been better than dead last at the NBA combine....
let's not act like he was sheray thomas or something. marcus is a cut-above athelete. you'd be crazy if you didn't think another d1 school would tailor their offense to him. i can see him doing well in the usc (california version) dunk city.
That tortured logic makes my head hurt.
My guess is that he isn't coming back because he isn't good enough to earn minutes to play. He needs a school where he can stand out more, and that's not going to happen at UK with all the talent we bring in each year.
Lol ZaytovenCat thinks he is a scout on here. Great job with the Newman and Murray scouting report, horrible. I think everyone here would like for you to stop talking UK basketball, its too much for you to understand.
Yeah. Gonzaga just brought in 3 foreign post players. And they have a McDs AA PF (Collins) coming in. I don't see were Marcus fits........ but he would (or in theory should) dominate the WCC competition.
I live out in WCC territory, Marcus should be able to dominate the post players from Portland, SMC, San Francisco, Pepperdine, San Diego, etc.
But Gonzaga also plays a fairly aggressive non-conference schedule, and that would expose Lee. I like the suggestion that he go and play at USC. The dunk-city system might work well for him.
Marcus , I wish you all the best , and hope things works out for you where ever you land. You will always be a part of the BBN !!
I wish Marcus the best. His character alone will make him a welcomed addition to any school and basketball program. You can never have too many quality people. Wherever he lands, I hope gets back to his 2014 all-region form. He was spectacular during that run.
How what played out? Two guys have left the program that would likely get very limited minutes if they returned? I'm sure Lee and Matthews leaving will scare off several ***** one and done guys.
I am sorry to say, but Cal is a poor developer of talent unless their a can't miss pro. I believe he gives up on players too easy. For example, Josh Harellson. Cal dissed Josh at every chance. Josh decided to kick Cal where it hurts by improving in spite of Cal. Yes, Cal took credit for Josh's improvement.
What the hell have you been watching the last three years? He has NO OFFENSIVE SKILLS other than dunking. Can't shoot, can't dribble, can't pass, can't even make a free throw. No USC caliber school is gonna "tailor their offense" around a player who has no offense to be tailored around.
It may be somewhat true that he's a "cut above athlete" (at least in terms of jumping ability), and it may be true that he was once considered a McD AA "premiere recruit", but neither of those things changes the fact that he has no ball skills. You can't build an offense around a player who can't do anything with the ball other than dunk.

Your act is old and your posts are moronic. You have to be Cut Nets' love child.
Stating one's opinion makes that person a traitor or not worthy of still being a UK fan. Maybe, you might consider moving to Russia. They really like your level of thinking. God bless you my sister.
Cal gave Lee all the opportunities in the world to shine last year and he blew it. I wish he'd came back so we'd have some front court depth but part of me is glad I won't have to watch any of the inconsistent trio of bigs we had last year.
he just hasn't been in the right system, hence USC (where he can run and gun all day). agree on this shooting thing. that and boneheaded turnovers are what hurt us most this year.
You're really clueless. Lots of can't miss pros go elsewhere and flop. Cal develops all kinds. Sure some guys like Marcus don't develop as much as others but it's usually on them for not putting in the work. Josh and Willis both improved BECAUSE Cal rode them. It's what they needed.
Yeah right, like the USC system is somehow gonna get him to magically sprout all those skills that an HOF-caliber coach like Cal was never able to get out of him in three years here. You live In dreamland.
