BJ Boston hints at silent verbal...

[CDC1988]

In an interview on Hey Kentucky, BJ Boston hints that the Cats may have a big man already committed. KSR has the story over there along with video:

Thought on who it could be?

 

[Shaudylo]

Hopefully Greg Brown

 

[opinpi]

Rob Lock jr.

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

Jackson is the safe bet.

But yeah, a Greg Brown commitment would take this thing to an entirely different level.

 

[villefan76]

 

[UKCAT5FAN]

Brown would bring Kermit out

 

[UKxWildcats]

Im pretty confident its Jackson. I can't think of anyone else it could be at this moment. I feel like Brown and Barnes are still a bit far for a commitment.

 

[MWes11]

Gotta be one of Brown, Jackson, or Barnes.

But agree with most. If I had to guess, I would say Jackson.

 

[bigblue1971]

Marques Bolden maybe... :joy:

 

[akaukswoosh]

I’d guess Jackson but any target we are pursuing will make me happy.

 

[BassProCat]

Jackson

 

[westerncat]

Hope it is Brown. I think we will get Barnes.

 

[Bill Withers]

Jackson is the safe bet.

But yeah, a Greg Brown commitment would take this thing to an entirely different level.

That was my initial thought. But who knows?

 

[Wall2Boogie]

Brown would bring Kermit out

I think Kermit is banned now because some here don’t see the comedy.

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

That was my initial thought. But who knows?

If it turns out to be Jackson, UK lands one of the better defenders at the 4/5 position in this class. He's the bouncy pogo stick junkyard dog-type Cal loves who won't mind locking down an opponents better interior scorer, and he's obviously agile enough to defend guards off switches.

And if it ends up being Barnes or Brown, UK gets its baseline interior playmaker next year.

A pretty sold win-win-win with all three options.

 

[bnewt]

didn't know Hey Kentucky was still on the air........not in Louisville anymore

 

[UKxWildcats]

Does anyone know if Barnes or Brown have already taken a visit?

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

Does anyone know if Barnes or Brown have already taken a visit?

I don't think they have. Barnes is coming in two weeks. Brown in January.

 

[caneintally]

Has to be Jackson .

 

[St.PatterSoN-54-]

Any of those three adds a whole notha level to our team next year. Awesome news.

 

[jcmc225]

Assuming Jackson. If so i hope he can have a Nic Claxton from UGA type impact. Would it be crazy to think its Banchero though? I feel like UK is in a great place with him as well

 

[Born and Raised Big Blue]

I really hope it is brown but I think it will probably be Jackson also.

 

[CKKKK]

Jackson is the only one that makes sense

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

I really hope it is brown but I think it will probably be Jackson also.

Add Jackson in November.

Add Barnes in December.

Add Brown next May.

 

[BankerCat12]

Assuming Jackson. If so i hope he can have a Nic Claxton from UGA type impact.

I was thinking Alec Kessler but I will take Claxon

 

[davekersey]

heard about this, and posted something about it about 10 days ago, that a big would be coming UK's way in short order. I wasn't told who, but guessed it is Jackson, so maybe that's the guy, maybe not.

 

[HagginHall1999]

I think Kermit is banned now because some here don’t see the comedy.

So strange that adults wouldn't see the comedy in that...you know, a frog and duck that are part of children's TV shows pumping lotion into their hand insinuating a certain act...especially when it is in celebrating teenager signing with a basketball team.

I wouldn't complain about anyone on here, everyone has their freedom of speech, but those GIFs are beyond creepy.

Nobody looks at it directed at the recruit.It’s a parallel to watching porn in the sense it gives you pleasure. It’s a joke. Now following recruits on twitter is even more creepy. It’s been a running joke on here for years. I guess we should stop posting pictures of chicks in bikinis because it doesn’t belong here and some will get offended

I'm not offended, I just find it to be weird. Also completely agree with it being weird to follow recruits too.

All is JMHO. I have a sense of humor, the ironic part is my favorite comedian is Louis CK...ha.

 

[davekersey]

I just received a text message and it is not Jackson but he won't tell me who

 

[bigblue1971]

Cisse grabs the mic from Cal's hand, rips off his shirt, has a blue UK shirt underneath, says "let's ball" and drops the mic...

 

[bigblue1971]

I just received a text message and it is not Jackson but he won't tell me who

Outstanding!

 

[wildcatdon]

Banchero. Pretty sure.

 

[davekersey]

thinking out loud, who does that leave: Brown? Kuminga? Traynor? Omoyuri? Banchero? Dwight Howard?

 

[Cal-4-Three]

didn't know Hey Kentucky was still on the air........not in Louisville anymore

Anything with Perino and Ryan Lemond on it won't be on air for long LoL

 

[BBCoach22]

Marques Bolden maybe... :joy:

He’s gotta ask his mom for permission first...

 

[ukfan2410]

thinking out loud, who does that leave: Brown? Kuminga? Traynor? Omoyuri? Banchero? Dwight Howard?

My guess is Omoyuri, he shut down his recruitment yesterday and UCONN people seem to think its UK

 

[GonzoCat90]

The fact that he "can't say who yet" makes it seem more likely to be Banchero or Cisse, since both would need to reclassify and both are felt to be tied strongly to hometown schools.


Still think Jackson is the only logical choice. Unless it's Traynor and he's holding off while we pursue bigger fish.

 

[MWes11]

I just received a text message and it is not Jackson but he won't tell me who

Wow. Very interesting.

 

[bigblue1971]

Kuminga? Alot of smoke apparently with UK gaining and Duke fading with him, super team talk, he and Clarke talking about teaming up? I can't even think about this possibly. Never mind.
