My nephew coached against him and has seen him play a few times and loves his game. Said we havent had this type of poing guard in a while who is so dynamic with the ball in his hands. Kind of Iverson like in style. May need to work on play making ability and shot but a crazy good breakdown with the ball guy.

Your one trick pony has died. Stop beating it.
The last time Calipari winked at the fan base, it was right after Sharpe committed. No one cares as much as we used when a high-level kid commits because Sharpe showed us it doesn't matter.
Wink after a title, coach.
Lots of us care. Please stop speaking for the fanbase. You are FAR from it. Most are not miserable, not even close (unless they read some of the garbage here).
I wish that poster would go away. They are the worst.
I wish the mods would ban them just soooo stupid or message them and tell them enuff.
Lots care? As in you and the 22 burner accounts you've started here?
Wagner and dillingham would be about as good a offensive backcourt as you can have in college
On par or better than Wall and Bledsoe, which was filthy.
I was thinking fox and monk but Wagner and dillingham both are bucket getters, and would make guarding Kentucky Kentucky really hard
I like the Fox and Monk comparison better. Wall was on another level. Monk also was a bucket getter just like Rob.
Add Jackson at the 3rd guard/SF at 6'6"-6'7" and it's easily the best under Calipari and probably the best in the country.
Easily or add the Taylor kid that Tennessee and Kentucky are after and that is the type of team cal usually has success with add a shot blocker and he is set
G Dillingham
G Wagner
G Jackson
That would be one deadly backcourt. And right now, it seems very possible.

or

Dillingham/Wagner/Jackson, with three top 7 players, trumps the others. At least on paper.
Sign me the F up. That’s me dream anyways.
Completely agree. I just wanted to compare really. I’m curious to see where Jackson falls out if he reclassifies too. Murray and Sharpe didn’t drop much at all when they reclassified.
Ian Jackson would be my #1 recruit in '23 or '24. Love what Ron Holland is doing on 17U team and finding out he just turns 17 this week--lot of upside there and Dillingham is type who is a warrior on the court. Like both bigs they are involved with (Bradshaw/Kingsley) and really the only guy where I have 0 feel for UK's standing that I like a lot is Xavier Booker.
I see that Adam Silver is in favor of lowering the NBA eligibility age to 18.

Goodness bless your little heart. We've had 1 player do this in his 13 years here and you think it should ruin the expectations for every recruit. Your just looking for reasons to create Drama.

Would that be Cal’s best backcourt duo ever at Kentucky? Right now I put the top 3 as Fox and Monk, Wall and Bledsoe, and Ulis and Murray. I put that in no particular order. That’s up for debate on who’s the best out of those 3… numbers wise I’d honestly say Ulis and Murray (too bad the front court was awful that year). But talent wise they’re probably 3rd on that list.
But Wagner and Dillingham would absolutely rival all of those . Would be very exciting
Well it wouldn’t happen for a couple years. So let’s really take advantage of these next two recruiting cyclesI see that Adam Silver is in favor of lowering the NBA eligibility age to 18.

The Ulis/Murray backcourt was basically the perfect college backcourt, just a shame they didn’t have enough around em to win it all.
I’d say we would have to wait and see on court production before making that leap. I think we should all be done crowning anyone until we see them do it on a college floor IMO. Those other 3 backcourts you mentioned were absolutely elite.
Very true. What a disappointment Skal was. Poythress was decent. But not good enough to be our best front court player. And Marcus Lee was only ok. He never really developed the skill we needed from him
Oh for sure. From a recruiting ranking standpoint alone, these two would be the best. But yes, let’s see how they play out. Hopefully we can actually get Wagner
I get it. I’m just saying after guys like Boston, Sharpe (lol) etc … I just like to see these dudes show out on a college court . The 3 backcourts you mentioned deserve all the love they get for sure. If Dillingham and Wagner were that good, then LFG.
I don’t think we get both, though.
Very true. Well we have 1 already. Sure hope we can pull in Wagner. But I’m not so sure we will
Another year from Dakari would have been huge. Put him at the 5 and Alex at the 4. Skal becomes the 7th man behind Lee.
If I’m Calipari I pitch Wagner and Dillingham on what he did with Wall & Bledsoe. Dillingham at point and Wagner at combo.
Johnson was the key to that season. We needed a true big on that team.
