Just saw that on Twitter. Cal must think he's good enough. So that's good enough for me.
Im guessing every one he visits gets an offer.. First ones that takes it gets it.. And depending on how many he wants to take.. Add Baker and Johnson with Smith and Bamba,, me be happy..
He's got good size and is a solid shooter.He's the kind of late bloomer who has a huge upside.Hope he commits.
He's the typical under the radar kid that Vanderbilt usually finds.The ones that can shoot lights out from three land.Izzo also is good at finding under the radar kids that can shoot.

Rupp Runt, why don't you change your avatar it doesn't give you justice, piss poor advertising that avatar.
May have already been noted but also saw an article there where Smith was added to the Derby Classic. Think this kid is ours. Was
just waiting on offer. I'm happy about this one.

No matter which guard comes on board, I would bet Cal won't give him many minutes at all. He feeds the five star guys first and the rest take what they can get, whether they play good or not. WE shall see.
Wonder if the offer was a "given" once Cal visited or if they put him through a workout and were impressed enough to offer?

I have a hard time thinking Cal went to visit him and put him through a workout.
If you earn minutes, you get minutes. When Willis played good enough to get minutes, he got them.
Did you watch the same Elite 8 game I did? WG and SKJ were on the bench. Humphries played a big role. Willis started over Gabriel a big chunk of the year. Hawkis was the first man off the bench come tournament time. Your agenda is wrong.
Humphries only got mins because of foul trouble. I don't think he saw the floor the last 10 mins. during the whole year he only played in 1 or 2 min spurts.
Humphries was the one who put us up 5 with 4 minutes to go. He was in until the under 4 timeout
OK, what about Willis starting all year over Gabriel and SKJ? Hawkins got more minutes down the stretch than Gabriel and SKJ, what about that?
Sorry was thinking of all the other games. If you at the last 15 games or so he only avg. about 4 mins.
No agenda my boy. When you learn more about the game and watch how Cal does things you will understand. Just watch. I hope I am wrong but I doubt it.
I watched Derek Willlis start over SKH and Gabriel--both 5 stars.
I watched Hawkins and Mulder come in and play. I watched Humphries play. I saw SKJ ride the bench all season.
Why don't you explain those things to me.
If Cal is visiting this late in the process,, he's not going to just chat and evaluate.. It's to offer a ride.. Bout bet Baker gets an offer tomorrow..
It was made public at 2pm he was added to the roster.. I'm wondering if Cal was first to visit at noon when the no contact went out of effect? The list of 4 schools visiting him today all had UK first..
Im thinking he takes both if he can..
1st wins no doubt, we don't need two guards to recruit over every year.
Think about the 2018 guards though, there are some very good ones.I think he takes a fresh and a transfer
Smith has size and athleticism, you would think that he should be able to defend at the college level. You have to be able to defend to play for Cal.
I agree w this totally in the past. Going forward though with this huge reset year you gotta earn it or other wise we don't want you. There needs to be a culture change away from entitlement. Killed us w the Harrison twins and keeping Booker on the bench. Cal is no fool and I give him that regardless of what people say about him. He learns from experience like most high performing intelligent people do.
