Blackshear, Hampton and Juzang
- Thread starter HerrosHeroes

I’d say yes, however it won’t show because of Blackshear being a transfer...
Maybe Wiseman, Carey and Stewart want to sign up as well.
If we are dreaming we might as well go big.

If we land all 3 of those players (which is a stretch), who cares about #1 class, we should have the #1 team during the regular season and post season, which is what matters.
Hampton isn’t picking UK. Would be cool, but I’m not even considering it.
Yeah....Hampton ain't coming
Juzang and Blackshear though....I think we preseason #1 wit dem!

Sounds like Hampton may be headed to Memphis. Just reading between the lines. May be a little to many guards at UK. Who knows Cal could pull a rabbit out of the hat.
Agree. Our chances are slim to none, and slim just left town.
Our backcourt is to loaded to add a ball dominant guard like Hampton. Unless cal knows someone else is leaving, I don't really even understand still recruiting him.
I would say UK is pitching Hampton and Green to team up in 2020
Even if we don't we are a strong national championship contender.
I would be thrilled with Blackshear and Juzang.
I'd rather have Juzang, McDaniel, and Blackshear.
Hampton is incredible, but I am fine with a second year from Hagans/IQ.

I don’t give a damn where are class is ranked, all I care about is how well they contribute
Well, Blackshear isn't included, he's a transfer.
But absolutely, if Juzang and Hampton came here, that would give Kentucky the #1 class. They were ahead of Duke before they got a top10 and top40 guy.. which is roughly where those two would rank.
Now.. would ESPN would acknowledge it and roll out the red carpet for us.. doubtful.

From Corey Evans today:
Hampton is someone that wouldn’t mind having the ball in his hands. Duke has Tre Jones returning and just landed Cassius Stanley on Monday. Furthermore, they haven’t really recruited Hampton a whole lot so their chances with him are nearly non-existent.
Kentucky can offer the one-and-done path and bright lights, but with a fairly crowded backcourt returning and also enrolling, the Wildcats might be on the outside looking in, though John Calipari is expected in to see him today. Memphis stands in a great spot with Hampton, but the idea of playing for a legendary coach in Bill Self, the need for a star talent that he represents, and a fairly wide-open backcourt assuming that Quentin Grimes does not return, and it is looking good for KU.

I still can't see how Hampton fits that DOESN'T piss off another player. Juzang kinda fills a need (although I think Allen and IQ could be fine from the 2).. Juzang could also roll over to the 3. There's some wiggle room there.
But I can't see Hagans or IQ being thrilled with Hampton coming in to take 25 of the 80 guard minutes. Getting Hampton this year might cause a transfer..
It's obviously not all or nothing.. but I'd like Cal to spend his efforts on Juzang and Blackshear.
I don’t care how highly ranked a recruit is, if he ain’t ready to come in and beat someone out for more minutes, he ain’t worth having. Cal doesn’t promise or give minutes to anyone who doesn’t earn them. So if playing time is a concern, they don’t need to be here.
You are the Caneintally of KU. KU is not landing him and furthermore, the only thing legendary about Self are his abilities to lose in the first weekend of the tournament and covering up the organized crime his players are involved in.
There's no way we get both Hampton & Juzang. Give me a shooter like Juzang & a big man like Blackshear & we're the pre season favorite to win the national championship. Potentially our best team since our 2014-15 team.

Does it really matter who has the #1 class?
Dam you're running out of players to predict to KU. Juzang's off the board along with Hurt. You guys better start looking at Juco players because if you miss on Hampton which I think you will that's a ton of misses this year and who else are you all even recruiting for 2019?
We will all miss that recruiting title trophy.
Unless RJ wants to play in Memphis, Lawrence, or somewhere else, he’d be better served staying 2020. That’s exactly what I hope happens!
I added in another thread, but seems I should post it here; I’ve heard he will be 2019 and KU is a real possibility. Probably in better position that Memphis. I’m just a dude, no insider.
No, not if he doesn't graduate this year he would not be.
You gonna guarantee this? Please don't so that we actually have a chance at getting one of them.

and about 40 other players you "guaranteed UK will get"
Would be great to get him, but I can't see it happening.
If he wants to come here, however, it doesn't matter who else is here, that guy starts and gets as many minutes as he can handle. He's a stud.
