    We might be too late to the party on Jackson it seems.

    Alabama's Labaron Philon will enter the NBA Draft

    Dude is good enough to go pro. For me personally though, as long as he doesn't go back to Alabama I'm happy. šŸ˜…

    ‘25 4* Braydon Hawthorne visiting UK on Wed

    I'd love to have this kid, but he's not coming here. Kid is good enough to play real minutes at a power five school. Here, he'd have to redshirt or play very little year one. Doubt he's willing to do that, but maybe he is if the staff is willing to meet with him.

    mgbako rumor

    If it's all about cost, then why not take a stab at a mid major player? Mgbako is supposedly getting paid around 1 mil to come here. How is that good value? We can do better for that price imo.

    mgbako rumor

    I'd love to know what the staff sees in Mgbako. I've watched a lot of Indiana basketball over the last two seasons and Mgbako never impressed me. He seemed too slow as a three and not physical enough for a four. His lack of effort seemed laughable. In a lot of cases he just seemed lost out...

    Kentucky & Michigan For Gwath?

    Michigan insider thinks we're in the lead. May not be a big lead, but we've got one.

    Big budget ???

    Trilly stated 7-10 mil. I've seen other insiders say we are willing to go past ten. One thing is clear, we have money to spend this off-season.

    Big budget ???

    When Lendeborg enters tomorrow, Pope better throw a bag at him. Most likely going pro, but shoot your shot!

    PG next year

    I actually see a world where we don't get either. Smith will most likely not enter the portal and Thomas seems like a Florida lean.

    UK express interest in Tulane 6-8 guard, see him as intriguing prospect

    Last I saw, Iowa State was in a good position. Nothing on UK involving him.

    Duke has been mentioned with Dent.

    Potential bad obi abgim rumors?

    I'd rather have Stirtz or Smith if we were to get an ideal PG1.

    Is this the core of next year's team?

    Trent and Chandler are both guys who will contribute eventually. Chandler probably sooner than Noah, but Trent will get his time. Perry is the one I'm unsure about. Hard for me to see it currently.

    Is this the core of next year's team?

    I love BG's athleticism and is developing shot, but his decision making skills and toughness need to improve. If he can do that, then I will happily pencil him in at center. I think your logic is right though. Pope can't bank on that or expect Moreno to be dominant year one. I'd go out and get...
