Monday headlines:
Evan Daniels of 24/7 Sports has reported that he is hearing that Florida is not out of the mix yet and that Kerry Blackshear Jr will probably make his announcement today.



No one knows ****. Another day and one guy talks FL, one VT and one even ARK. Let's just start over. I mean I want KB at UK, but we only know this guy as a BB player through highlights. Maybe he isn't UK material. He had said in the [ast that he's exhausted from the process, but it goes on. I can understand wanting to make the right decision, but come on. For what he wants in the NBA it should be an easy comparison between UK and FL. This is starting to get as dramatic and misdirected as 17-18-year-olds picking a school. Maybe it's not KB fault, but it is just starting to seem odd.

I think Bkackshear is wanting to come to KENTUCKY but one of the other schools are trying to offer his dad compensation and his dad is trying to talk his son into going to that school. The thing is KB wants KENTUCKY and the confliction between his DAD and Him have this at a stand still. LOLZ sounds legit that is what I am going with.

I graduated from Va Tech and went there while Blackshear was there. I have 100s of friends still there. By your reasoning I’m more qualified to know where he’s going. FWIW I’ve heard Oregon but only time will tell

Daniel: who on first is what still on second will who is on third.

Kid wants to look at all his options, take alot of nice trips, meet alot of new people and schools. I would want to as well.

If the schools are being patient for his decision we should be also.

We all know the UK roster is loaded. The longer he takes the more comfortable I get with our team.

If he wants to win and get prepared for the next level he will be a part of UKs 2019-20 National Championship team.

If hes nervous of what UK basketball is and is worried that he wont be able to handle what it requires then he will go the easier route to a lesser program. Happens all the time.

At this point, do we really have any baseline of information at all on Blackshear? Is he really even done taking visits?

Is he really even black?

I'm only guessing going by what I read and thinking where he'd go. As of Sunday he was 50/50, now I think he knows where he's going and will tell everybody tomorrow at 11am......... Total guess but it's Kentucky

My guess is back to Va Tech or to Florida. Apparently he didnt like what he saw here and tenn just doesnt make any sense at all.

Can Cal get the money UK spent for this kid to come and visit? I think we should ask for a refund.

I'm not necessarily buying the evolving deflective narrative that other teams are offering $ or Blackshear's too emotionally weak if he doesn't come here.

Maybe another school just has a pitch he likes better.

KB can make his decision any time because it's always "today". It's just a REALLY LONG day.

I have a new prediction. I predict that I'm eating crow as the OP on this thread. I've actually enjoyed many of the posts by you guys. Some are hilarious. I seldom post, but have followed this board for years. I'm primarily a basketball fan, but love and watch our football team as well. I was born and raised in Kentucky. My Dad was a coal miner. I graduated from EKU working my way through plus student loans. After graduation I took a job in east Tennessee. I hate UT.

my gut feeling is that he decides today
my gut has to be at least as accurate as all the other predictions
