    BB: Mega PG Savo Drezgic - Could we add him

    I can see the lack of guards on the roster and understand where folks are coming from but we already have a team of 13 legit players and one glorified walk on in Zyon. We already have multiple legit players that will not play barring injuries. Everyone would comment “how can Louisville have...

    Honestly, I’m not really an optimist, but…

    I can see that point. But I think folks(not you) just aren’t completely used to the schedule we play right now. Last year before the NCAAT(so full schedule plus SECT) we played 14 ranked opponents. During Cal’s glory years(from 09-17) we averaged just over 6 ranked games a year with never any...

    Non Conference Game Announced

    The lowest rated team in the country in Kenpom 3 straight years lol

    Kam Williams is the X factor?

    For me it’s Wilkins. I think he has the largest range of outcomes on the roster(not including the complete unknown with an international like N’Diaye). Analytics models are very down on him and you can see why, bottom 5 in TO per game in the country, 33% 3 point shooter, and separately he’s very...

    The Dust Has Settled: Stokes or Momcilovic?

    They never said as much but I think there was a bit of a plan to just keep on Stokes and if he says no, to just buy the best NBA draft dropout you could. I would venture the framework of the deal they come up with for Stokes was pretty similar to Milan maybe minus some Nike cash.

    Rank Pope's 3rd Year Recruting Class

    For me, I feel like you have to go at least A-: -bottom of tier 1 portal PG(above all freshman PGs this year imo) -tier 2 second guard -elite tier hybrid forward -solid depth 4(McBride) -upside filled unknown in N’Diaye -top backup C -deep depth developmental PG in Williams Bumpy ride to get...

    Updated rankings from ESPN and SI

    I’ll be honest, now with many teams spending huge money these teams all look great on paper. Differentiating between Saint Johns, Louisville, Tennessee, Texas, UK, etc is next to impossible imo. They all bought really good players and have some questions that no one knows the answers to yet.

    UK has never had a shooter like Milan

    Here’s another stat for perspective. If Milan played his whole career at UK, he’d only need 24 3s to overtake Delk for the UK record(he already would be in second place today). He’ll have that by Christmas almost assuredly.

    What is our total payroll this upcoming year?

    I think the total is probably pretty close. I think Milan less, Zoom and Wilkins more. But some of that comes from just clean rounding that you used which was appreciated. Our budget seems very similar and more than enough to compete even as many more teams upped their budgets from last season...

    Final roster addition?

    Man I’ll be shocked if it’s more than a Walker Horn type dude. Already a lot of mouths to feed…and pay. People will look at the 2 spot, but I think we’ll just go big and try to steal some minutes for Kam and Braydon there.

    Milan to UK?

    IMO(separate from this update) Travis is the best in the game currently. So when he talks, I normally listen

    BB: Hampton visiting again this week

    Bigger positional need than Milan actually. I’ve held a lot of negative feelings about this one due to his brother on/off the court but admittedly don’t know enough about Ryan to judge fairly.

    Milan to UK?

    Not necessarily related but maybe lol

    Milan to UK?

    My negative morning thoughts: -losing another high stakes recruitment is extremely hard to come back from if you’re Pope -national insiders were very much onto Louisville’s chances for Milan at the combine, were we in fact used to bump up the price(like Pope flat out confirmed happens)...

    Milan to UK?

    We gotta be within an hour to hour and a half away from “insiders” proclaiming no decision tonight…perfect opportunity for another thread lol
