    FB RECRUITING: New Recruit - Kevontay Hugan Update: Decommits

    High school commitments are a little like leeches that you get if you are walking through a Swamp; it's best not to get attached. I would also add, you can expect entire classes of commitments to look at themselves as 100% open with the House Settlement if what Jay Bilas' theory that multiyear...

    Vince Marrow To UofL

    Shots fired, I guess. This looks like a plus move by Brohm. We supposedly don't have to pay Marrow's exorbitant buyout, which is Satterfield-to-UC level leveraging. I'd think UK is actually happy to get Marrow off their books as he looked ridiculously overpaid to me and if you believe the Nick...

    UofL 2025-2026 ACC Conference Schedule

    I'll be surprised if we just average in the 16k range...we drew 18,500 for the Pitt and Stanford games alone at the end of the year as well as the UVa game. If you had the Duke and UNC games in February instead of December weeknights (with UNC being New Year's) I think it's fair to say you'd...

    UofL 2025-2026 ACC Conference Schedule

    Me likey. It will be interesting to see the actual layout of the games, especially how they manage the road trips to Cal and Stanford. Back when it was the Pac 8 the West Coast teams played weekend road games in pairs where if you went to Washington you played Washington State on a...

    Rooths And Brown Putting In Work

    It's almost funny that there has been so much attention given to Earl Clark playing in the TBT, because freshman to sophomore Khani Rooths has a lot in common with Earl when he first got to campus (and please refrain from the "is he really on campus" response). He and Pryor are seemingly the...

    Capers to the portal?

    I had stated a couple weeks ago that I thought our linebacking corps looked very deep with the implication being it was too stacked for a modern day ACC program and were going to lose somebody to the Portal. We lost Perry because Watts had supplanted him. We have veteran multiyear starters...

    Louisville James Scott

    When he got to Louisville he had the body shape of Grimace and that wasn't helped by the knee injury he played with in his year at BYU; I doubt it turns him into a rim protector or somebody you're comfortable with switching onto a guard in a pick-and-roll, but it should increase his ability to...

    WTF is going on!?!?!

    Pryor's return had as much if not more to do with James hitting the Portal as the additions of Fru and Khalifa and I'd submit as evidence the three games in the Paradise tournament. Prior to those three games Scott was starting with Waterman. Pryor was inserted as the starter and his minutes...

    Louisville James Scott

    Wade has missed on some fairly high profile Portal targets and those that he has landed have been in the backcourt for the most part. They'll overslot on James and he is from North Carolina in a tight knit family. There's a lot of incentive for him--especially in the context of not having...

    WTF is going on!?!?!

    It's the clear smart play for James: 1. he's not getting the same minutes next year...he likely would in 26-27 as a senior, but. 2. how can you justify increasing his NIL price with a virtually certain reduction in minutes? 3. it clearly was also a linear process...first Ament makes it official...

    Tyran Stokes Visiting Uk

    Stokes is shaping up to be a carbon copy of Rajon Rondo and Deangelo Russell. Once they leave Louisville they figure out they can already live without it. But honestly whoever is handling his recruitment is playing it EXACTLY like I would be playing it if I were his Dad or advisor. High dollar...

    Nate Ament update

    I don't know that Ament is necessarily going to the highest bidder, though with who is his final four/five are it would be easy to jump to that conclusion. It seems to me given the pushback of his timeframe it likely has more to do with playing time and it's potential for him to be in the Draft...

    Out of conference sked next year

    Given access to the teflon treatment the ACC and ESPN give Duke, I'd say the likelihood of a Duke trip to Rupp Arena falls somewhere in the neighborhood of Benjamin Netanyahu being elected the next Mayor of Tehran. If I was a betting man I'd say you're getting Will Wade's Redemption tour coming...
