Oh well. I wish it wasn't so hard to find players like Oscar.
In before this thread goes nuclear….. DUCK AND COVER!!!!
Yea but let’s believe the Twitter accounts who were clearly trolling Kentucky fans last night saying he is coming back,
I don’t consider him a Kentucky freshman and it’s a ***** move if they waited for Oscar to announce to try to hide it.
Alright. If so, and no reason to think it isn't, everybody in the transfer portal has clarity.
No, there isn't a lottery pick available. But Kentucky doesn't need a lottery pick transfer to compete for the FF or title next year with Oscar and the rest of the roster. The Cats need a proven shooter who can be an above average defender.

No surprise, please don’t try and rep UK. Cal can say good luck and leave it at that for him.
But what about those summer classes? 
We have some of the absolute most gullible fans. "Twitter says he's ineligible for the draft." "Insider says..."
Sharpe never had any intentions of playing.
Good riddance, dude.

Way to go Cal.This is something he can really brag about.
I wish Cal could go pro with him.
Easily the dumbest thing to happen under Cal
EDIT: Now his high school says he graduated in May 2021? I don't think that was ever discussed. If so this has been 100% a ruse the entire time, only question is did they lie to the staff about it.

Taking the over on that. Easy bet.
Conveniently waited until Oscar announced his return. Cal is responsible for this entire NONE AND DONE debacle!!!
I long for the day that we RETURN to being UK Basketball instead of G-League Jr!!!

He's a bench player.We are screwed.
Don't believe it. He is coming back
Reeves is replacing Mintz. If you believe Kentucky adds no one else from the Transfer Portal, you are flatly wrong.
Just trying to get in on first page, may not make it.
It was easy to see this coming unless you just didn’t want to. The entire situation was shrouded in deceit & shadiness. Sharpe, his camp & Cal were all predictably FOS & lied thru their teeth all season. Absolutely disgusting. And, to think how ppl were attacked & mocked for seeing things for what they were.
Cal played like an in bounds play...whoduh thunk it...
Exactly, the thing that gets me is the fact that people last night didn’t think sharpes people would try to find a loophole and that the NBA wouldn’t accept it
This is not new news to us. We knew about this before he came to school,” Washington told KSR. “This news is not news to anybody in the NBA. … People just found out, but NBA people already knew.”
Those who needed to know were made aware, but that was the extent of the conversations. It didn’t even get to the man in charge in Lexington.
“I didn’t even tell Calipari,” Washington said. “Calipari was like, ‘Do you think he could do it?’ I said, ‘Honestly, it doesn’t matter, because he’s not going.’ He said, ‘OK, if you say so.’ Because everything I’ve said has happened.”
That’s because Sharpe’s path is clear, one different than other top-ranked players looking for a quick buck or an autopilot year before declaring for the draft. He chose the road less traveled at Kentucky, one focused on the future rather than the now.
With professional organizations begging for his commitment — Washington tells KSR that Sharpe turned down “four, five million dollars” from “every pro situation that was available” — they chose the guarantee: development under Calipari at Kentucky.
“It’s pretty idiotic. Everybody knew that this was an option, but we’re not taking it,” Washington told KSR. “He lost millions coming to school. He came to get better. … You come to get ready if you want to go to the NBA, which is one of the goals. You have to be ready. People don’t respect Calipari’s ability to develop enough, that’s why (Shaedon’s) there.
“He’s not there to sit on the bench and wave at fans. He’s coming back next year. If he doesn’t play this year, he’s coming back next year.”

How are the Cal pumpers gonna spin this? I’ll pop some popcorn and wait. Please for the sake of this program let’s never be in this situation again Cal. You got cucked out brother
Give it a week then ban any Sharpe threads so we don't have to read 5 threads a week bitching about it the rest of the summer.
