Kentucky’s version of Lander for fans.   Local kid that last year BBN were screaming for him to get more PT.   Same this year when he came in and hit some shots.   I like his game a lot though 

What lead to his minutes drop this year?  Going from 14 mpg to 6.4 mpg with a lot of DNPs seems strange.  I know he didn't shoot it well when he was in, but UK lacked perimeter shooters this year.

Once we or any program for that matter knows definitely that it has slots to fill, do you attack the portal immediately or wait to see what other names enter the portal in the next few weeks and run the risk you lose a kid you might have otherwise snagged because he commits elsewhere?

You start working back channels like nobody’s business to get an educated guess on who “miiiiight” just be looking for a new home, but haven’t pulled the trigger yet.

Absolutely. College coaches are making calls to high school coaches and AAU coaches (and have been for over a month) to say if player X was interested in leaving his current situation I'd love to have him. 

The reverse has been happening too. High school coaches are are still close to players that have graduated and AAU coaches still connected to a player are making calls to college coaches to see if there's interest in a player.

Yes.

I feel relief seeing this. Now there a couple of more players I want to see transfer.

I think we all assumed.  Not a big talent loss but we will need some big bodies, especially depending on what Race and Trayce do.
