I mean possibly maybe 1% chance we could get back in on him?

I'd really love to have the kid on the roster next season

Any kid that was going to U6 probably was getting paid.. Id like to have him though.Don't think he's a OAD.Looks like a bigger James Blackmon

Give me him and Montgomery with Johnson and Herro and Quickly SKJ Pk Nick Green Baker and Vanderbilt or Knox we might be able to play with Dukies

Carter is probably gone. Zion hurts.. But Duke is still terribly thin in the frontcourt. Zion hasn't proved he can defend, at all.. Certainly not players 4 inches taller.

Zion is urban legend. Kind of kid who will be on sportscenter every night, he is the type of kid that every NBA guy will be tweeting about, celebrity, every elementary kid will be wanting to be like him. The kid is not as good as Reddish, he has no offense, he is a bull in china cabinet. He is great to sign for your program, the young celebrity crowd.

John wall was this way in 08-09, he was urban legend. Will see if Coach K plays him on perimeter. I say he does not. I say Zion will be a point PF type, rebounds and dunks galores, 2-3 charging and running over someone a game, PF or quicker guy going around. He is a major work in progress. Let's see if he can shoot over 6'9 SF's and PF's

No way he gets 2 or 3 charge calls a game. I'll bet anything now he doesn't get called for more than 5 charged all season. I hope you're right.. But no way. No chance.

Yes forgot his jersey with Duke on it. Let's say he will be deserving of at least 3-4 charge calls a game, 5-6 over the backs, reach ins.

I'll take the over on 5 charges all season

$10. It'd be the happiest I've ever been to give someone money. But they will not let him hamper Duke by adding several extra fouls a game and getting him on the bench with foul trouble.

I agree.... something happen when he was playing for Cal in Egypt. Not sure what it was.
I think the rumor was that he hurt his back, but didn't want to sit out so he didn't tell Calipari he was hurt. Then his family got into it with Cal... I'm pretty sure the ship has sailed with Langford. Who knows though?

Im fine with our recruits especially with Herro becoming a 5-star. Can't remember the last time a guy was that in love with kentucky and Cal and dammit it feels good!

We're getting guys back.. Idk where these guys think they'll go in the NBA and I'm not even sure we lose 3 now (at the rate this season is going).

Call it a year for recruiting a friend start focusing on 2019/2020.

Zion won't get any of those charge calls against UK...no one on the team has any clue how to take one.

He's going to either Vandy or KU. #adidas$trong

I thought Vandy was Nike but I don't keep up with the corrupt stuff.

Are we not Nike?

Regardless, I'd be shocked if Langford didn't end up at one of his final 3.

Vandy has a shot but not getting my hopes up.

Agree. It is more likely that at 260 lbs, he will flop while guarding Quade, and draw charging fouls.

Where do you see I am not saying that. I was comparing John Wall as far as Urban legend and youtube sensation like Zion. John Wall was most important recruit since Jamal Mashburn.

Vanderbilt extends its Nike contract through 2023

By - Associated Press - Tuesday, July 7, 2015
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - One year after making Nike its exclusive apparel provider, Vanderbilt has extended its deal with the company through 2023.

Vanderbilt announced the agreement Tuesday in a university release. Financial details weren’t disclosed.

Nike became Vanderbilt’s exclusive apparel provider for all 15 varsity sports last year. Nike already had been the apparel provider for Vanderbilt’s football, men’s and women’s basketball and baseball programs, but some of its other teams used different companies before the deal was reached to make Nike the supplier for all sports.

Vanderbilt’s announcement comes less than a week after in-state rival Tennessee began its new contract with Nike. Tennessee had used Adidas as its apparel provider since 1997.

Romeo is very likely vandy bound, Thats a good fit for him. Would have loved to see him be a cat, just dont think it was ever going to be a good fit.

Would be a huge get for us (VU) to get Langford. That dude is a really good scorer from both the perimeter and at the rim. We've had shooters for years, but he can get any shot on the floor he wants (at least he did in the one game I've seen him against Princeton, Oh), even with a lot of defensive attention.
