Walking out on Illinois
@ralphdaltonfan was all over this a year ago about this kid. Good call, as always, Ralph!

Whaaaat? You just don't do that.
Supposedly got into a fist fight with a teammate.
UK got lucky again not getting this kid.
This kind of stuff is going to keep happening more and more. Surprised we haven't "officially" had anyone walk out on UK mid-season. Of course, what Sharpe did was essentially walking out on us.
Yep, kids are really getting big heads with the NIL money at such a young age. There are a lot of good kids, still, but like you said, this kind of crap will only get worse as more and more $$ gets in the mix. Sad, really, as we watch the loyalty and commitment to schools, as well as humble attitudes, pretty much disappear. It's now all about ME and NIL, and with the transfer portal program, there will always be someone willing to take on others' garbage attitudes (some coaches are actually good at managing kids like this).
Well, the Dragon did leave UK mid-season.
Had forgotten all about that kid. What an idiot.
If you only knew everything that happened in Nashville with him.
His lack of maturity and game is only surpassed by the circus that is his support system/family. If anyone's seen an Illini game this year, you don't need any examples provided.
Know it wasn't news many here wanted to hear and I had to take some verbal beatdowns from friends, but hope they realize I wouldn't have broken things down unless I had a very very very VERY good reason to do so--and that's with info that is flawless. It's not going to be written/mentioned if it's hearsay. Leave it at that.
That's nothing compared to what was going on behind the scenes since he played at Derek Zoolander School for Kids who Can't Read Good level of competition in LA Private School league.
How in the hell did our staff scout and offer him as early as we did with so many many other high end guards?
Watch that NIL money EVAPORATE as soon as he steps off the court and then see how he feels about it.
Do tell…
College basketball has become an absolute **** show.
Everytime I see something with him it reminds just how bad it was that cal wasted time recruiting him, cal could have had a better guard replacement
That’s almost as bad as stealing NIl money, free lodging, access to workout facilities while never playing a single second 
On the Illinois side this is the 3rd guard to transfer in the last two years

You were validated quickly.
I can only imagine the circus that follows him and how they are gonna spend his money. I bet they will have a 50k stripper party with some expensive liquor or something dumb like that. Maybe buy a Car he really can’t afford. Just some kind of Tik-Toc baller thing kids think rich people do. I feel bad for kids that will be taken advantage of in this climate. It’s gonna be even worse now since it’s legal money.Watch that NIL money EVAPORATE as soon as he steps off the court and then see how he feels about it.
What’s crazy is all 3 guards play crazy out of control “ me first” basketball
Man, I never had good vibes about this guy even when he kept saying how committed he was. Was never a fan. Imagine if we had him and NOT Cason Wallace. Oh boy.
Yeah talk about getting the good end of that deal. I never felt good about him either, then all the HS changes and after his injury he never played high level games. It was a mess.
The Dillingham kid (and his possee) will have to be “managed “ next year.
University of phoenix
I said they were kill the goose that laid the golden egg .... fools .. just idiots
Heard he is headed to Texas to play for a HOF’er next year
Dad's an idiot. Can't even spell Sky right.

Always a red flag when a recruit has switched high schools many times
Fair but at least Dillingham is good.
If we can blame Cal for botching a kid like Hopkins, then he deserves credit for being able to avoid the bad ones. And he's been very good at avoiding problem recruits.
Heard a little bit of the same, described as "Iversoness" in game and attitude, but hopefull all works out great.
Yes, but he did not even show the skills to take a chance on the vibes. Very weird.
