    BB: 2027 Recruiting

    The Alston situation bears watching. There won’t be a player that we have better ins with in 2027 than him. Pope played with his dad multiple years in the NBA in Milwaukee, Mo played against Rafer for years so I’d be shocked if they didn’t have some sort of relationship, and McLean went to the...

    Are there 32 games now?

    Yes there are. Don’t have to schedule 32 but you can so most will for financial reasons obviously. Vote was last summer but starts for this coming season

    Pope's SOS and performance so far at UK

    I think it would be easy for people to get excited for the following year if this team had a top 10 season like his initial team did. (10th in true seed list his first year). The problem was that team was full of super seniors and forced a new roster in 25-26 that Pope then botched. Of the...

    Pope's SOS and performance so far at UK

    The Pope discussion is very nuanced but I always appreciate these threads as a time to really look at how we’re playing a whole different sport now than when I was at the height of my fandom(during the Cal years as I’m 34 years old). I used the thread’s premise of SRS rating and specifically...

    TBT: La Familia roster only has 6 former UK players

    Bought tickets behind the UK bench when they were released. Paid like 45 each. Sold them for like 100 each(think TM charged like 119 or something after tax/fees). I was shocked someone bought them so quickly. Novelty that requires new interesting blood(players) to retain my interest. I thought...

    Kusturica a Bruin

    He went there primarily for the US team with multiple targets on that roster.

    Spears to Texas!

    Texas and LSU were always the schools for Spears. Maybe the animosity in the thread comes from the “cousin” talk after Hampton? I don’t expect a large class in 27 but am interested in watching it unfold.

    BB: summer recruiting, practice, and Trent Noah updates

    This thread kinda diverged into a Trent thread. It’s funny I feel like when most really boosted him up before playing a game here, I was more skeptical. Then after he’s struggled a couple years the sentiment has completely flipped and now I find myself defending him. Honestly there’s a lot of...

    Watched SportsCenter for the first time in about five years. What has happened to them?

    I find it unwatchable outside of the ones with SVP after a big sporting event I care about

    New La Familia Player

    I don’t care much about it as a novelty thing in the summer, but hopefully they get a couple more guys that fans can get somewhat excited about. The roster is currently: WCS Harrison Travis Whitney A few random dudes that didn’t go to UK Kerr

    Dusty May to the NBA

    With their massive NIL, they might still even get a big coach this late in the game and the dominoes could go well beyond Michigan’s current roster.

    Travis Branham crystal ball Kentucky

    Year old but interesting link. https://basketnews.com/news-229584-barcelona-salaries-payroll-budget-2025-26-season.html#google_vignette Essentially after converting to dollars it looks like Barcelona’s basketball budget has been around 33-35 million dollars a year. That counts coaches, senior...

    Travis Branham crystal ball Kentucky

    My dumb guess, he wants complete flexibility to transfer/go back to Barca/international after year 1.
