I just don't understand how he doesn't know. Nothing is going to change now. All coaches will stay put. He can't be waiting on players decisions to stay in draft or not because Bam is gone, Jarret Allen is gone, Bolden is back, Giles is gone. He hasn't added any schools, he's visited all schools. I haven't heard of the coaches going for an in home. I just don't understand how a recruit commits in the summer and people like Bamba won't decide til late May/June.

I'm very anxious about Bamba and Diallo too, but one we know about both, there will basically be nothing to talk about for months.

It's only May.. Some players wait until AUGUST to declare. This is a BIG decision for a kid. There are things that he apparently is hung up on

Connection with Shaka Smart.
Wanting to play with buddies at UK.
Genuine care about top notch education (Duke).
A kid milking every bit of the attention that comes with being a top 3 recruit.

He's not on our time schedule so just relax, UK will exist with or without Bamba.

I have never heard of a player waiting until August

Why don't these post just start and end with " is recruiting season over yet?"

Answer?

No.

The end.

Based on past threads I assume most people here are old enough to have 18 and 19 year old sons, or even too old to have them. At least 50% of the members anyway. So that makes it even more confusing why so many treat them like it's the meat market. Pretty creepy stuff.

OK snowflake who got his feelings hurt by a HS kid deciding which school to go to. Get out of your feelings and be a man, you're ugly when you cry anyway.
You must have never got your shot at being the cool kid did you? Well now you are cool to all of us.....not!

You're literally whining about a high school kid you don't know and have never met picking a college. YOU, you're the one acting like a clown. Don't ever speak of anyone or anything being cool again.

What difference does it make whether you understand or not?

Relax everyone. In the end Bamba chooses UK. Diallo comes back or we get Johnson. No lose situation. Everyone just calm down Cal will get the job done. Cal knows where Bamba is going already, and he knows if Diallo stays in the draft Johnson will commit to UK. Some of you need do a little yoga, run, take a muscle relaxer or just have your mama (wife) give you a massage, or get a massage from a young, beautiful women.

Doesn't this come down to who do you trust your NBA development to?

Calipari's track record or Shake Smart's? This is the ultimate no brainer.

Not to mention the player relationships involved, national TV air time & attending a basketball vs football school. I think we will look back on this recruitment & wonder why we even questioned what choice Bamba would make.

You are 100% correct my man. We just need to calm down. I don't know what we will talk about after these guys finally commit, may fishing, drinking beer, getting frisky with the old lady. That doesn't sound bad at all now that I've said it.
