It's not looking as promising as it once was on getting either Oscar or Reeves back.

If both skip out we are screwed.
Thanks, I’ll be stepping in front of a speeding Amtrak after lunch.
Gotta get behind this NIL issue and start making some promises.
Don’t dangle the dream then take it away…..
But we don’t make promises and we only want players that are here for Cal not NIL money.
BBN has been saying this for weeks about Oscar and Livingston. If Reeves is also a no return then where is Cal going to reach for players? Doesn’t appear he has a plan but hope we’re wrong.
The season has been over for 2 months now and UK is just idling.
I am 56 but may still have some eligibility left. Im a warm body that can set illegal screens and throw up prayer shots.
Not bad from the charity stripe as well.
That resembles Pimptino behind the wheel.
Drats, taken out by a Mafioso.
I knew it. Cal has his guys and he thinks that's all he needs.
5 freshmen, Thiero, Ugo.
WTF. This is complete neglect.

It’s funny how Arkansas can get 5 transfers and we get caught with our pants down.
Losing Reeves would be the most ridiculous thing ever.Duke returns guys who would get drafted and we lose a guy to the G league.
We’d be losing 2 guys to the GLeague, that’s the only place Livingston is going.
Now this statement is characteristic of the grotesque misconception of NIL. The problem is the players are getting offers elsewhere they think are better. You want them back, pay them more. UK can not do that. It must be those wiling to pay for name image and likeness. Bottom line, there is NO MONEY!!!!But we don’t make promises and we only want players that are here for Cal not NIL money.
And honestly grounds for termination!
I wish it didn't look promising to get Calipari back.
This offseason has been a constant clownfest and shows how far behind cal is from modern basketball. Kentucky basketball is pathetic now and in a offseason where every team in the league got better expect two it’s frustrating to know Kentucky is mid team. Kentucky isn’t even a top 25 team right, that roster right now is not great, and our coach is to stubborn and set in his ways of wanting to do things to acknowledge it
Yes a big helping of
The only thing Calipari eats first is at the damn Donut Shop.
It's pretty obvious at this point that Reeves doesn't want to return.
It's been over a week since the G-League combine ended, he didn't get invited to the regular combine, no chance of getting drafted or even a 2-way deal, yet he still hasn't announced a return?
Pretty clear he doesn't want to come back.
He might still announce his return, but it's clearly not his preferred option.

Tastes like crap..
Cal didn't go after anyone because he thought they were coming back. Now they aren't and he's burned. How many times did we hear over the offseason. ''Reeves will be back'' ''Reeves is only getting feedback''. Lol I told y'all.
I would say the staff try to get cam spencer but we both know that’s not happening
Also Sharpe was supposed to play this last season Sharpe was only getting his feedback a year ago…
Cal is so full of he’s a better liar than most politicians!
What’s really crazy about it is that Cal used to be ahead of the game in everything. The innovator of all innovators. He pushed for NIL for years, possibly decades, only to be so far behind the 8 ball on it, it’s almost surreal. Not only that, but he was also gifted the transfer portal and hasn’t really cashed in much with it. Cal is a fuvking dinosaur!
I thought that too but late last week was his agency’s pro day at the combine. He may also have an individual workout or multiple lined up and those are more often than not after the combine.
Oscar is not coming back. I know he’s not as plugged but MJ has made it clear he knows details of Oscar’s NIL situation where he claims he made much less than reported last year and that money was from the Bahamas trip that we aren’t duplicating this year(Canada apparently different laws than Bahamas).
Reeves is a good player and the news is concerning. But IMO Reeves is by far the most replaceable type of player in college basketball. An older guard scorer without NBA potential. Still think it makes sense for him to return though.
I'm honestly confused by this.I've been critical of Cal but never expected him to go hard after only 2 guys.Was he so sure the 3 would return he didn't make backup plans?Crazy.
At one point I agree Reeves would have been easy to replace.Looking around at what's left now we ae in trouble.
