Dad still playing with UK or something else going on. His Instagram today had Brown in a UK uniform on the front of Sport Illustrated. Somebody smarter than me please post the pic.

Hat on the table.......so much for Cal saying we wouldn’t be anymore. Build that brand dad........
Anyone who goes to those lengths to troll is pathetic.
They KEEP sending these out. We keep saying we know it's not true.
If he is coming here, no one's been this obvious ever. None of these kids want to ruin the decision. He wants us to watch to build his brand.

Would it be fair to say Greg is “Brown” nosing UK?
It helps build his brand when you can include UK among your potential suitors alongside a bunch of second rate programs.
One day it will become the man and not the land....again...not just a hat to gain notoriety.
I think that is a fake Instagram account. It’s probably a rival fan trying to mess with bbn
If it’s fake, he faked off Kentucky Men’s Basketball and John Calipari, who are followers.
Looks like he’s trolling to me.
While I agree, I'm not sure what kind of hype he is going to build. It seems most UK fans have given up on this, and thus there wont be much hype to build.
On the other hand, what better way to keep your decision secretive than to make it obvious. I could actually see someone doing what appears to be trolling while actually not trolling at all, but actually being very up front and tipping his hand to the decision.
But hes not likely coming to UK.
I dont even consider for a minute UK is remotely an option for this kid. It's just someone trying to generate interest and make it look program X got him over a program like UK.
“Looking for likes in all the wrong places, looking for likes in too many faces...”
If Shaka had been fired he would be a near lock for UK IMO (if not us then Auburn) but alas Shaka did enough before covid 19 apocalypse to keep his job and what AD wants to be looking for a coach right now ? I don't think they are trolling UK really but at the same time I think as hard as UK can be to turn down for future top 10 picks , they will so Brown can rack up numbers and play at home.
Now you want to talk someone who used UK for a hat on the table Fultz was sure an example of that.Begged for an offer , got one and quickly went to UW . In the same token people thought Knox was going to do that too. So you never know .

no it’s his dad greg put a post on his story
plus they’ve been posting greg since 2015
See, this is another way college basketball is changing. More society as a whole but we are a bunch of grown *** men discussing and trying to “interpret” a 17 year olds Instagram/social media account lol.
This dude is most likely already a multi millionaire. If he stays top 10 in the draft. A multi millionaire. He’s already kind of a social media “celebrity” and that will only increase. It’s about $$, glamour, brand etc. I mean I get it all but it’s just so stale and unrelatable to me anymore.

He is going to Texas, and they all know nobody will give two craps about him once that happens. Just one last round of attention whoring before going into oblivion
It's a shame he's taking the cuck route. He would have made a nice piece to the roster next year.
Why is he waiting 3 more weeks to announce. Get it over with and screw the attention.
I agree... But I mean, look at Edwards. He will be the #1 pick. With a net worth of $50 million + guaranteed in about 2 months. They don’t care about 8 months in college. It’s a pit stop for them.
Shaka probably encouraged it so he can say look Mr AD I beat out mighty UK for Brown.
BBN just needs to tune recruits out, until they actually sign. Lately we’ve seen these recruits wear UK gear, post pics of them in UK jerseys, post Drake/UK lyrics and then pick some other random school that probably won’t make the tournament. I would hate to be a college coach and deal with the recruiting game.
All true, but it is bizarre. It's like if a talented young writer had a choice between going to an 8 month writing school with other literary phenoms and accomplished authors before getting his/her first publication; or, alternatively, going to a writing school where no one has ever been published and where the 8 months end up minimizing their actual ability to better learn the craft (not to mention, a smaller avenue of future marketing opportunities). It ends up being a waste of their time on a structurally useful level.
It's strange because developing and honing their craft matters at every point of their career except for that 8 month window where they're at the greatest crossroads of development? Do they even care if they win? If not, what is the thing that drives them? Is it all about just "getting an NBA career?" Are we at that point where we're paying millions of dollars to a majority of players who fundamentally don't care if they win or lose at the end of the day? The blatant dichotomy between many of these players' apathy and the basic human value for competitive instinct is real. I don't get it. I grew up with young men who wanted to win at everything they put time into. Is it such an antiquated position to hold that assumes athletes still actually care about winning, even if it's an 8 month window in the middle of their career?
Strange times.
It's not strange anymore when everyone keeps saying it's strange. There may be a million scenarios, but there is a pattern.
So is Brown gonna be 1 and done and have to go get his tail kicked in Rupp Arena by Cal and the guy that recruited him???
The "Shaka's best team" bar is set pretty low, isn't it?
LOL Kentucky will kick Texas’ collective asses!
I wouldn’t take Edwards #1 but he’s one of three in the mix according to NBA insiders. However, Edwards is only in the mix because this is considered a weak draft at the top with very little consensus on the best player. He wouldn’t be in the mix in recent years for #1 other than maybe 2013.
Yes and twice on Sunday
