This needs to be Kentucky.
Cal can't lose this one.
Cal needs to get Anthony Davis, Karl Towns, Julius Randle, Bam Adebayo, etc. etc. on the phone hitting this kid up and telling him that bigs that play for Cal get Super Max Contracts. Bigs that go to Mizzou go pro in something other than sports.

Agree they need Quaintance to really put this class together next year
I like where we stand. Much like Fland we have been on him as a priority a long time.
In 4 days going from a top 4 to top 2 is definitely something. Probably could’ve just skipped the top 4 but what do I know!
Critical recruit for Calipari and UK. Based on what his dad said after visit, it would seem to be UK.
But I believe his dad and Missouri coach have a very close relationship.. and his dad said since he will only be 16 when starting college, the city and coaching staff "looking after him" is very important.

I highly doubt Cal is the right coach, then, because anytime a player forms a camp around him Cal is totally hands off. Cal is about the draft and not upsetting anyone that could get in the way of that.
Im not shocked by this, the kid is looking for NIL deals now, hes already decided. He's UK bound now! Book it!!
Gotta get this kid.
Cal doesn't do crap with transfers. His bread and butter is elite top 5 kids.

Cal needs that next transcendent NBA big. His last one was Bam and that was 2017. PJ Washington and Nick Richards? Solid, but not star types like Bam.
Cal needs all the elite players he can get. His only chance at winning at a high clip is adding potential top 5 picks. He's a lousy coach when he has sub-NBA talent.
I bet we land this kid but he isn't a make of break player . Honestly its sorta weird but I haven't felt any player was in this class. I understand this is the year we can have a 36-4 type season and win a title. Next season regardless will have ALMOST an entire new roster and while we might be good by March it will more of a 27-10 type squad so I am less focused on it. I expect all the freshmen to be gone either NBA or portal and we will lose Mitchell and Reeves. Just a whole new squad.
Next year could be solid. Fland and Sheppard would give us an elite backcourt. Thiero for a third year (fingers crossed) and a second year from Burks/Hart is a nice core. Cyril is already on board. Get Quaintance, Knox, Richmond, and a grad transfer and that's a team that could make some noise.
But you're right. Next year will probably be a downgrade to what we'll have this year. Quaintance is legit, however.
Mizzou fans have been awful damn mouthy too, saying they got this kid, that Dennis owns UK, that they are better than Kentucky, how they're "new money". They need a metaphorical punch in the face to shut them up. Gotta land this kid.
Honestly I think Mizzou leads right now but Kentucky may get in late and get him like they did fland
Not that it means anything, but his latest follow on IG is Boogie Fland.
If any of BBN is around this kid, go buy yourselves some Mizzou shirts and hats. Then tell him he sucks and “we” don’t need him in Columbia!
Nah that sounds like tactics of a lesser program. Really weird
This is just based on what I saw watching video, so I’m not claiming this is the greatest scouting report. But he has a man’s body in an adolescent. Coordination still catching up, but good touch. Looks like he could eventually be a hoss of a C/PF.
If Cal loses anyone to Missouri then it's time to hang it up, good lord.
Really means nothing but can’t hurt. It would mean nothing if he was also recruited by Puke. They like to have their recruits troll UK players, coaches.
That’s not good. This is a kid we definitely need to come on board for the upcoming class.
All clandestine operations are weird. Should read some of the early OSS stories!
I think Boogie "tweeted" at him yesterday to come to Uk.. may be just following him back based on that
I hope he watched the Missouri / Memphis game last night.
Quaintance at the 4 with Cyril at the 5 would be a lot of beef down low. Hope it happens.
Would those two have enough shooting
