Had a sincere conversation with UofL educated Kentucky fans a few weeks back. Respectfully asked them if they truly believed Cal was clean. They all emphatically replied yes. Even despite the violations at Umass and Memphis? Yes. Even despite the absurd recruiting classes? Yes. Even despite the current FBI investigation where everyone landing 5 stars is implicated? Yes.

Cal doesn’t need to cheat they said. I had to walk away.

I mean, group thought. When enough people seek the same irrational thought it becomes rational. I think that's what you're getting at. Does he cheat?

 

Your instincts aren't off...

Confirmation bias in a way..and it happens here too :)

Next years Kansas roster with them only losing Graham and Mykhailiuk because they are seniors and nobody else is viewed as a first rounder at this point would look like this.
Sr. Vick SG
Jr. Azubuike C, Lighfoot F, Newman G, Cunliffe SG, Lawson G, Lawson F, 
So. Garrett G, Moore PG, De Sousa F
Fr. Dotson PG, Grimes SG, McCormack C, Agbaji SG
Someone is guaranteed to leave because they are already over signed by one. Even if Vick and Newman both left that would still be a lot of guys that would be wanting the basketball imo. I don't think that would benefit Romeo at all.  
 

If Vick and/or Newman stay I think Romeo would be absurd to go to KU. With one of those guys, a Lawson, Moore, Grimes, and Dotson all commanding touches from the guard position, there’s no way they’d all be happy. Hell if they both stay there’s a chance Romeo wouldn’t even start! I know he would and all but thered be some unhappy egos if Vick or Grimes is coming off the bench.

My guess is after this run KU has had Newman will declare. He's been wanting to test the waters in the past. I can't see him staying another year. I would also think Vick stays.

I agree with this but I'm not sure Newman hires an agent. I don't think it would make sense unless his stock skyrockets which is possible but this draft class is loaded and next years might not be as deep according to the experts.

KU looks to have more shots to go around next year so maybe he sees this as the best opportunity to leave. A lot probably depends on his family situation. He could make a lot of $$$ in Europe with that jump shot.

Would they really be unhappy with $elf as their coach? They'd be handed a conference championship when arriving on campus, most likely a conference tourney title, and a 1 or 2 seed in the tourney. They would also be getting the dough, not for baking, luxury dorms, and the cops in their back pocket anytime they felt they needed to punch someone.

Yes but at the end of the day they would all want their shots and minutes so they could get to the NBA. The point is there wouldn't be enough shots or minutes to go around imo.

Xavier commit Evan Boudreaux, who averaged 17.5 points and 9.5 boards last season, told ESPN he will re-open his recruitment. Grad transfer with two years remaining. - Jeff Goodman

Taylor and Boudreaux are right at the top of my grad transfer list. Boudreaux could cause a scholarship problem in 2019 though since he does have 2 years left but here are some of his highlights.
