1st off, really appreciate & enjoy reading your comments & insights
Just wondering if you would comment on a couple of things
Mudiay choosing SMU
Blackmon switching at the last minute..........did his mother sway him
Trey Lyle & his decision
Myles Turner's interest in UK
Heard any new names on UK's radar since loosing Blackmon
thanks

Can't say much in reply because I don't know. But I'll offer this;
Mudiay, some of you know that I didn't think his game was all that stupendous. Caught a couple of his games at a tourney last year. Reminded me of Liggins' first year, lot of energy but drives to no mans land and resultant turnovers. I suppose "close to home" is why he is going to Southern Methodist.
Blackmon, most recent thing I heard was that he changed his mind from UK to IU within 24 hours of his verbal to IU. Was it Mom? I dunno, but I spose Mom and Tom did their share of begging. UK needed him.
Lyles will be a Cat, in my opinion, but keep in mind I'm an eternal optimist. I still think we have a chance at Darius Rice and Leonard Washington.
Turner, that's a long shot but I know Cal is working him. I have my doubts but it would be nice, wouldn't it?
No new names that I know of but I bet Cal has a few he is tossing around. We'll know soon enough.

Thanks for all the info, Dave! Would love to see Cal reel in Turner. If anyone can do it, he's the one!

Agree on Mudiay Dave, Saw him a couple times and was not that impressed. We got a true pg in Ulis. Blackmon shocked me, thought it was UK, don't even want to speculate on what happenned. Would love to have Turnsr, since he is waiting till Spring we have a shot,

Would love to have Turnsr, since he is waiting till Spring we have a shot, I saw him at the City of Palms, were you there? If so, we saw Wiggins, Dakari, Okafor, many others, and what did you think of that Utah bunch, wow, BYU has a future. |

Live just 10 minutes from Montverde and saw Dakari there. DeAngello came up to me af Universal Studios a couple years ago when he saw my UK shirt. He loved UK but Cal did not offer him. Surprised Simmons signed with LSU. Go to the games at ESPN Disney and catch some good play there. In think There will be some late bloomers this year that Cal can go after but just going to enjoy the ride this year for now! |

Dave
Don't you think that since Turner is waiting till Spring.....if he see Marcus Lee continue to develop, same for Derek Willis, maybe Alex and Dakari possibly returnig..........that would chase Myles away IF he sees himself as a one and done ??
Have you heard anything about UK's interest in Jonah Belden (possibly a Plan B to Stanley) he seems to be a late bloomer with 'growing upside' in Jerry Meyer's opinion ??
