OMG I love it though that they're so upset
I have to admit, I never even thought UK had a shot at Knox, so I never even looked into him or watched any of his videos.
How good is this guy? I mean, I know he's a stud, but what does he do for this team next year?
Is he the type of player that takes us from top 15 to top 5 without Bamba? Diallo?
I'm out on a camping trip and had a couple people text me the news, I'm stoked. Cal pulled this one out of nowhere.
I was worried about next year, but if we get HD back (I believe we will) and we land Bamba, I'm of the belief that we would be seeing Cal's best recruiting job and one hell of a talented and young team, but a team that will be rocking come March.
But what does this mean for Johnson? Does this take us out of the running for him?

Cal continues to deliver. You can't get them all but Cal certainly gets way more than his fair share. Thanks Coach.
Excuse me, but I have to go to the UL boards to see how much Knox cost us. Be right back.
Small minority but I saw a few say it could be possible if we wiffed on what was left in the recruiting class
Wow just seen this on my 247 sports alert , getting ready for work, it's gonna be a good night, welcome to the BBN Mr. Knox, come on down Bamba, GBB
the absolutely zero buzz for UK the last 2 months.... Come on.. Cal had to do this on purpose for the whole Bolden fiasco.... plus trying to do the same thing with Trent and Carter in the fall.........
Damn Cal is amazing. in the 20 years of following recruiting.... I dont remember ever having a team thinking they've got a kid locked in..... and the team with 0 buzz ended up getting him.

Wow what a surprise. I thought like a lot of others that we had no chance with Knox. Great day for UK fans.
I'm sooooooooooo glad that I didn't get banned but would have accepted it had I been wrong (chose the wrong twitter account to follow or was trolled!)
Most gifted scorer that UK has signed in this year's class, and I'll probably stick with that even if Diallo ends up staying. Huge potential, though I don't see him as an instant star ala Monk and Fox.
As for Johnson, I don't see any way. But I'll never say never, especially after today.

Thank you for the info UKEE and so many of the BBN family would agree, just so you know, I had no harm intended.
ill leave this here....

I gotta say I was wrong. Gladly take my beating. Cal is absolutely the man

Wow I'm floored. No way did I think he was coming here. Glad to have you Mr Knox.
How much of that Whiskey did you drink for Derby? That looked like some rot gut. [laughing]
I hate to be "that" guy, but I distinctly remember @morgousky posting about how Calipari wasn't getting the big-time recruits as easy as he used to and that Duke was the new recruiting king.
Oddly enough, I haven't seen him post about Knox yet tonight. I know he's a UK fan and not a troll and I read that in one post he said he recently had a baby, so maybe that has been what has taken so long for him to chime in, but I just thought it was nuts he was claiming Duke was out-recruiting Coach Cal.

No worries. I actually laughed when I saw it and then started wondering if I had found the right twittter account (via Google). When the Check4change Firefox addon (set for a 10 second page check on the twitter account page) alerted a change in Knox's twitter page, I almost fell off my chair when I saw the UK uniform.
Oh, and I had that post ready to go for several hours, just didn't have the school name filled in (that's why the OP was blank and the title was filled in, lol!

Holy Cow!! Or should I say "Holy Cal!!" We just got home from a wedding reception and I am absolutely 100% stunned! Like many others on here, I did not even think about his announcement today because of all the predictions that he would be going to UNC or dUKe. Welcome aboard Kevin! I look forward to seeing you play for the Cats!! GO CATS!!

Just logged on to see where Knox went. Based on what had been posted here since the MacDonald's game, I just assumed UK was not really in the picture and was happy that we might get Cam Johnson for 2 years. I do remember one poster suggesting that because Johnson didn't commit on his visit, that Cal was still holding out for Knox and though practically no one was buying that, apparently it was correct.
Still need Bamba, and in my mind shooting is a potential issue for what will be an extremely young team. With Bamba though defense might be able to carry the Cats a long way. Welcome aboard Kevin Knox. Hope you're good to your tweet and get to work right away.

While it still a huge task to replace so many players and roll out a roster with so many freshmen...
OH. MY. GOD. Cal is insane. Knox is a giant middle finger to the rest of college basketball. Bamba would be rubbing their faces in it. Absolutely amazing.

Top 3 recruiting coup for Cal, along with :
- Jones reversing UDub decision
- Teague picking UK after UL did everything but house his family for years

Guys who tweet info don't differentiate between actual information coming from a kid's camp, and pseudo-information that comes from nowhere other than the mind of other guys who tweet where recruits are "probably going". Everything about Kevin Knox was decided by an echo chamber online, and he was definitely not going to UK based on a few peoples' opinions that weren't based on anything other than what might be called common sense in the nicest possible terms, but is actually just "stuff made up out of nowhere."
If professional crystal ball guys were a little more transparent in general it would be a lot easier to tell when a player is truly up in the air no matter what anyone online says, the way Kevin was. Instead they treat these situations the exact same as a kid tipping off where he's probably going. It's ridiculous.
