With their current roster, they seem like more of a threat for Wilkins than Freeman.

Have to assume Amari Allen is planning on declaring for the NBA even though he hasn’t yet. Assuming Holloway is done there, they have no PG but a ton of wings
Has there been confirmed contact between Bama and Wilkins?

I haven’t seen much on Wilkins’ front besides UK going to see him Saturday and then him visiting yesterday.

The market for PGs is much better for the players than the SG/wing market. There’s just only so many guys these top programs could see becoming their starting PG. I just have no clue what the expectation is with Holloway. I just assume he’s done but with Oats who knows. (All of this to say even with a much smaller total budget, I could see Bama offering about the same as UK due to dwindling PG1 Options)

If UConn is truly out of the picture I like UK’s chances better.
Yeah, I don't think UConn would be out of the picture due to the players they have now. UConn got a guy I really wanted, and posted about here/old board since he was in high school, in Najai Hines. But he is a Center -full stop - that could play some old-school PF in a pinch. Maybe it's a money issue or something else with UConn, or maybe they recently signed someone I don't know about. Otherwise, I would think UConn is definitely a big player to be worried about with Freeman.

Diallo
Wilkins
Hawthorne

Moreno

Still need a stretch 4 and a couple guards then not sure if potter is ready to backup Moreno so another big may be needed depending on the stretch 4.

Man, look..we likely have the higher offer and at present, don't have a PF on the roster. Whats the hold up?
Mark Pope. Sadly when you look at the totality of the evidence in all these recruitments they only consistent variable is him. The money is always there, whether JMI makes an issue or not. Roster, Fit, prestige, market, PT. The only reason they don’t commit is because of they will be playing for him.
