Xaiver Pinson

I don't know about you, but if Chin Coleman is going to Missouri as reported, then him reaching out to a Missouri player--the forward and a former Missouri player makes sense. Xavier Pinson makes 0 sense for Kentucky-he's tied to an AAU program that hates Kentucky--but has ties to Chin Coleman (Mac Irvin Fire). Wonder if Coleman is just doing his work for his next job here?

Which AAU program hates UK, and can you share why?

Mac Irvin wasn't a fan of Kentucky until Chin Coleman joined. I'd not expect any MoKan Elite guys ending up at UK either.

Don’t forget wingspan.

My bad

Thot Pinson was decent at Mizzou. Actually kind of shocked to see how poorly he played at LSU.

Why do they dislike UK, @ralphdaltonfan ?

Kentucky didn't really pursue a lot of their top guys that hard. UK was involved more with Meanstreets due to connections Cal/KP/WWW had--so you had Rose, AD, Ulis, Matthews as Meanstreets guys and only Mac Irvin guy I know that Cal signed prior to bringing in Chin Coleman was Khalil Whitney.

MoKan won't be happy with Skyy Clark situation and if Bryce Hopkins transfers too.....that's another. MoKan dicked over UK a few times prior to those guys though-Trae Young, N'Faly Dante too. UK did well by Willie Cauley Stein but end of day...these things end up like Middle East conflicts-you are partners for a while and then turn into hostile enemies for a time....not unrepairable.

I mean, I know we reach out to a lot of different players, but if it was more than a casual thing, UK has really fallen on hard times! Pinson is simply not a UK caliber player!

Unless checking to see "hey, you want to come sit our bench and be defensive specialist, but maybe only play 10mpg".

If Pinson is now the best Cal can get next year will be worse than his year. But what else should we expect?

Once Cal got done with him, he would be afraid to shoot and maybe dribble
