He's probably at some local All You Can Eat joint nearby

Doubt he's not outside somewhere, this is his favorite night of the whole year, after all
Maybe he skipped it. Or maybe he’s with Ty. That would be a good sign actually. Maybe he’s finally getting it.

I'm not the petulant child about Sharpe most are being, good luck to the kid. Disappointed he didn't play here. It's in UK's best interest to take the high road. I'm fine with it.
Yeah I mean I have no animosity towards him and I think he has all star potential, but if I’m an NBA GM I’d be very dubious of drafting a kid who seems to work hard at not playing the game. What I think about is what if Malik Newman sat out? He probably would’ve gone top 10. Where is that dude now? Newman was every bit as highly thought of coming out of HS as Sharpe was. Too many questions and too many unknowns, but realistically the Blazers don’t have a ton to lose so I do understand the pick.

I'm not a Sharpe man, but if you can go #7 without playing college ball, why the heck not (from the players POV). If he dropped way down, the way some of the experts were saying, the story woulda been he got bad advice, There he goes. Even those who hate him like herpies will be watching him like a dog compulsively sniffs shat for years to come.

Well that opens the door for future players to come aboard and sit out a season and be drafted top 10. Way to open Pandora's box Coach! Cal Mr one and done and now he's Mr none and done! Man I'm so ready for change!
At least Cal is not hugging all over him. Maybe he knows he effed up.

Lol. The Top ten is not even going to have played on a championship college team. Basketball is such garbage right now.
A lot of those GM's are idiots drafting based strictly on "potential", meaning 45 inch verticals and crazy AAU dribbles

I'd rather select Agbaji from Kansas over the bum taken at #7 every day of the week

Proven championship player and a grown man who left it all on the court for his program vs a brat who scammed his school to drive a Porsche around and lied 24/7 to his teammates and fans

Portland just became my least favorite city again.

Although I absolutely loathe all west coach everything including teams. San Diego might be the only exception but I hope the rest fall into the pacific.

2010, 2013, 2014, 2016 and 2017 also didn't have a player from the national champs selected in top 10. So recently trend has been one has but some years it hasn't happened.

Too late, the damage has already been done. Cal not hugging that clown is far too little and too late. 2010 Cal wouldn't even touch that type of kid with a 10 foot pole, remember him passing on Josh Selby, Tony Wroten, Chris Walker and many other five stars because they didn't have the character to play at UK?

But since his recruiting has slipped and since Duke has been kicking his *** for what seems like forever, now he has to roll the dice with those shady characters such as that dude who just got picked at 7, whatever his name is
