After watching his highlights. I’d rather have him than Jelavic so that would be an upgrade.
He’s betterLooks like a poor man's Jelavic.
My concern with Freeman is his lingering foot injury.Then you probably need to go watch both play some games instead of just highlights! No offense, just saying. I agree though that he’s a really good player and I’d love to have him. I don’t think it should be one or the other and both would be great to me.
Just stop. That is not even close to being funny.Apparently Stony Brook University came in and offered this guy a free meal plan along with a partial scholarship. We should expect a whiff soon.
L$U.What’s the story on Graves? I think he has a no contact tag. Is he only focusing on the draft? He’s the PF I think would be the best fit.

Yeah he’ll be fine. He’s good to go. May not get him but someone is gonna get a heck of player.My concern with Freeman is his lingering foot injury.
Carr shot 32% from 3 ( on 2 attempts/ game)in his 1 season at UK--as a 5th year senior.He’s descent. Wouldn’t say he will be a Pope type that will stretch the floor though. Maybe a bit.
Hawthorne will be better than most Freshmen in SEC . HE WAS A TOP 40 recruit in 2025 class. Definitely an allSEC Freshman team talent.You don’t know that Hawthorne is pretty good do you?
Hawthorne was a year away from being a year away last year. Talented kid but still has to get stronger. Will play freshmen like minutes this year.Hawthorne will be better than most Freshmen in SEC . HE WAS A TOP 40 recruit in 2025 class. Definitely an allSEC Freshman team talent.
Played with 7 ft Center & star guard Johnson on a mid level Big 12 team.Big 12 was very tough this year.Hawthorne was a year away from being a year away last year. Talented kid but still has to get stronger. Will play freshmen like minutes this year.
Rancik is a super intriguing prospect who I could see starting at the 3 honestly or backing up Stokes if he comes. He has guard skills at 6'11. He pops on tape. Has to definitely put on muscle for SEC play.
This is the answerBoth
That’s what I was going to say. I’d like to have Rancik and Freeman.This is the answer
2005-2009 wasn't that long ago. We saw it back then. Markinyo Williams, Sheray Thomas. Conner Tucker, Vinnie Zollo. This isn't unprecedented.unbelievable that a program like Kentucky is rummaging through midway or lower of recruiting barrels hoping something is there. How in the world could UK; with its resources and brand, have any trouble landing just ONE top 10/15 transfer or recruit is mind boggling. It’s one of the most incredible things I’ve ever witnessed at UK in 40 years. Never have we seen something like this.

This guy is very good and is perfect for UK. Big strong shot the 3 nd a great passer. Anyone old want this tall Viking. Just check him outThis guy honestly looks like a big upgrade over Jelavic. Reminds me of Carr, but can Pope sign him?
I strongly disagree. Aside from like 89-92, our rosters were loaded with highly ranked guys throughout the 80s & 90s. I’ve been watching since 78 & we’ve always had elite rosters with the exception of a few years in the Tubby era, but, that’s only bc he despised AAU & didn’t want to recruit. If he had put in the work there never would’ve been lineups featuring Bobby Perry, Sheray Thomas & the like. And, BG’s two years were pretty rough. But, outside of a handful of seasons we’ve been stacked with elite talent throughout the 48 years I’ve been a fan.Other than the Cal years, we have never gone out and picked anyone we wanted
Apparently our lack of GM is killing us yet again. But our genius coach doesn’t need one.Is any other school doing this amount of visits? Seems like Louisville et al. are just bagging and tagging dudes over the phone while we keep dragging through the process.
At least he can shoot FT’s it seems like his 3% could rise based on that at least.So is 12 pts, 6 boards, 40%FG, 33%3pt and .5 blocks a game really a bigtime PF we needed?

Are we not going after the ST. Mary’s forward anymore? He’s the dude we should be on with Freeman as well.Going to be a tad underwhelming when this is our first Boom but hey I'll take that first Domino and its an upgrade all the way around for us. Would love to lock in a guard too ASAP.
Last I heard was he was likely to follow his coach to Arizona State.Are we not going after the ST. Mary’s forward anymore? He’s the dude we should be on with Freeman as well.
