Is this class the fab 5

[JesusCal91]

Maxey Juzang Whitney McDaniels Brooks Sestina transfer

Hagans and Quickley back probably Richards and then EJ or blackshear. Nothing really missing in this team

 

[TomTraubertsBlues]

Sestina would not count as he is a grad transfer.

 

[gamecockcat]

I don't keep up with the BB team as much. Who are the shooters next year? Seems like we're always lacking in those guys.

My moneys on juzang and Quickley. Maxey can also score from anywhere

 

[Skyguyb27]

Arent we still a bit thin on the frontcourt ?

 

[ManitouDan_anon]

no.

We don't even know the players the front court is comprised of yet. Unless you do.

McDaniels has committed to UK?

 

[kycottontail]

Replace Sestina with Brooks

 

[HeartofUlis]

Aren't you forgetting Brooks?

 

[JesusCal91]

Replace Sestina with Brooks

Right you are I knew I forgot someone he’s another stud

 

[JesusCal91]

McDaniels has committed to UK?

For all intents and purposes yes

Point guard play needs to make a major improvement, as it was atrocious at times.

Point guard play needs to make a major improvement, as it was atrocious at times.

And it was exceptional at times as well. I don't believe PG will be a problem this year.

It sure wasn't exceptional at the end of the year.

 

[ManitouDan_anon]

Last half of the year it wasnt up to any level that will bring # 9 .. If you take off the blue lenses and be honest .. Hagans was pretty bad the last 6 weeks .. odd , he was danmg good the first 1/2 of the season and had a month long streak where he was dynamic . Shot got better and his handle went to hell .

 

[Pulaski Cat Fan_rivals377587]

I agree Manitou

 

[anon_013cn8yrfncx2]

A PG who can't shoot is always a limiting factor, especially one who is not a great finisher at the rim.

Doesn't mean he won't be improved but there's no guarantee as we well know.

Only guarantee is team will be over-hyped on Rafters.

 

[chroix]

Hagans goes cold and we can slide in Maxey or Quickley. Not worried about the backcourt at all at this point.

No.

 

[hotelblue]

no.

leave it to the trolls to raise the ceiling.

The word troll has become the internet forum version of fake news incredibly overused basically translates to I don’t like what the person is saying so I want to discredit and blackball them

 

[cats#1again]

It wasn't . His defense was at the end but people don't give Hagans enough credit on his handle. Go watch the difference in him and Quickly trying to break down a zone. Hagans dribbled through the zone.

 

[stuway]

Everyone forgets Allen

what should we call non-fans that post here?

Wow .. 2 letters spooked you .. go cry somewhere . ( If you dont think I bleed blue then you are just ignorant on the topic) Like the other dude said , disagreeing with me is fine , man up and state your case . but no you just throw out weak *** " troll" get lost .

Get on point .. you think ESPN , or any other media , will look back and think this group of ( really impressive) players will transform the game ? will they change the way players dress ? I hated that damn group but the comparison is goofy at this point .

Juzang and Quickley are great shooters but don’t count out Maxey. He is a threat from deep !!

 

[Cowtown Cat]

Yep. IMO he's very underrated. His averages were insane before his injury. I think he's gonna be a good one.

Um it’s not that he can’t shoot he was hesitant in shooting and would pass up open shots because he wasn’t confident!

It would be different if everything you posted wasn’t so negative and I mean everything you post! Why do t you find another team to root for that is if you’re even a UK fan which we all pretty much doubt!

 

[CatfanMike47]

Juzang and Quickley are great shooters but don’t count out Maxey. He is a threat from deep !!

Whitney shoots pretty well too! And Brooks has his moments as well! Let’s not forget Sestina shot 38% from three last year!

 

[STL_Cat]

For all intents and purposes yes

I think you mean intensive purposes, you’re welcome.

No, Add Jaden and RJ and we can talk fab 5

 

[Cowtown Cat]

IMO, inconsistent PG play kept us from winning it all last season. I know we struggled from the FT line against AU. Our PG play was just as bad if not worse, though. Our title hopes hinged on Hagans big time. Hopefully he will be much improved this coming season, in all facets. He must shoot the ball better, for sure.

 

[LadyCaytIL]

If we got Hampton and McDaniels.... .I still wouldnt say fab 5 or Sensational 7 etc......... we've been bitten on our azzes before over hyping classes so I'll wait until they are mostly through the season before i start nick naming classes or teams anymore.

 

[BigRedMachineBigBlueNation]

Let’s not overhype this team.
