Cal isn't pushing Tai out the door.

If u think Duke got bad press for recruiting a junior then forcing him out, just imagine the heat UK would get for recruiting a junior from freaking New Zealand, then forcing him out.

Will.Not.Happen.
I am sure this has been discussed, but would he even have to sit out given that he never played? Assuming not, then it really wouldn't be a bad situation at all if he transferred to another school where he would get more playing time. He could play immediately, he had a free year of tuition and practice at UK, and he was always going to come to the US. Now, if he has to sit out, then that changes everything.

ok, so I don't want to read 7 pages of this thread...so someone just tell me what the scoop is? or is there any?

There is some pro UK buzz building about Bolden the last two days. But thus far it's all from UK people.

The closest thing you can get to positive UK info from people not tied to UK is guys like Evan Daniels and Eric Bossi saying they didn't believe the done deal Duke stuff and still don't. But Eric just said yesterday he was guessing Bolden to Duke. Daniels has maintained he thinks it's 50/50.

No, nothing is wrong with that, beyond you not reading closely enough. I said IF cal wants a kid gone, the kid will be gone. Point blank period. As far as cal not being "that" type of coach...all I can say is that tells me you don't have much of an idea of what happens behind the scenes at major D1 basketball programs, including UK. There are multiple players at uk under Cal that were strongly suggested to leave. Anyone close to the program can confirm.

Link? :popcorn:

I figured maggard went back to his old gig as frontman of rascal flatts. On a side note, if bolden picks uk NWO will be strutting around here like a ***** on Saturday night, if not he might be sitting the next few posts out, next to the guy who jumped the gun saying jaylen brown to uk lol

I think there are some positive UK vibes but it feels a lot like the typical stuff you hear before a guy announces.

I am still hearing Duke is the choice.

Would be awfully sweet to see him put on those supposed custom UK shoes though!!

No no no. See, we've seen how good your sources were here recently. They were proven to be pretty awful, and out of the loop in this recruitment. After that was proven, you probably shouldn't cite them as sources in this recruitment again, because they couldn't even get the date wrong in a week and a half long window.

So is Bolden definately deciding tomorrow?

No official word of an announcement yet. But according to a bunch of people - Evan Daniels, TJ Walker, etc...he is expected to announce tomorrow sometime before/during/after Jordan game.

To be fair, if they told us everything good over there, there'd be no reason to get a premium membership.

Don't worry though. If it's good Bolden news, we'll just know a day later :sunglasses:

Umm because it's unfair to the people that pay for it, maybe?

Can I just know if it's Bolden related or just some Duke fans getting worked over? Catphight liked the original juicy post.. Then made one about eating Duke fans only seconds later.. and I just thought it might be that..

Oh Lord I've become a 17 year old girl..

Highly discouraged.


I know you can't be specific, but can we assume that 'juicy' means very positive for UK?

Seems very positive for UK. Without going into specifics, because ya gotta pay the site for that info, but if you read it, you'd feel very strongly that he'll pick UK. As strongly as one can when it comes to recruiting without using the words "done deal"

Nothing to do with Duke fans.

Well I guess at one point a Duke person was involved, but not in the way that ... whatever is happening on this board is happening.

So paying for it means that we find out less than 24 hours later. I had it for free for one week and if it had been of great value, I'd gladly still be a member.

Been a paying member since it started in the early 00's and it has been worth every penny every day I have had it . In terms of recruiting both basketball and football it is a gold mine .
