Probably good news for us if we’re in fact the highest bidder. 

The fact that he didn’t cancel the UK visit after being here but cancelled the Auburn visit after visiting UK suggests it’s UK.  If we were still the leader, he’d still take the Auburn visit.  Hope not, maybe we threw more $ at him or something…

Looks like Conerway has one year of eligibility left. Gonna be an old, experienced group of guys next season

Or the agent called Auburn, before they made the trip, and said here is where we are $$$$$$$$ and Auburn said no thanks.  Who knows……we are all guessing.

If tonight comes and goes without a commitment, I think it’s IU. I don’t think Auburn is offering anything close to what UK or IU is offering, rendering the Auburn visit useless.

Or he didn't want to sit in a car for 7hrs

Just hopped on a plane in Louisville and went home

Bailey, DeVries, Enright, Conerway, Brennan, Goode, Ward, Overton, Lindsay, Sisley, Oporum would be a helluva team to root for. It's not unreasonable.  Maybe add two more hs kids. We are in contact with Nyk and Acaden Lewis. 

Brennan and Conerway may be the two most physical players at their position in the portal. I know Brennan is.

He’s leaving Uk without committing, we’re offering more, Uk apparently can’t match (calling bs on that report), and we had the early predictions from trilly. I don’t feel awful right now .

Except UK people are saying he’s still on campus.

I guess either fan base in the Wilkerson recruitment can be optimistic. The UK fans think it will be them because he just cancelled the rest of his visits after the UK visit. The IU fans think it is us because we are offering more money and that.he has more playing time available. Also we can see that he did a video after our visit and not after the UK visit at least yet.

In my opinion we need to sign a minority player soon.  Just putting myself in a minority players shoes, I would be more comfortable knowing there are other minorities on the roster.  That first player is going to have to take a leap of faith.

Probably not good he did that after Kentuck 

This is true. Certainly looks like he was impressed enough with UK that other visits were fruitless.

Well, if he's still on campus. that tells me it's UK.

This is good to hear. His mind isn't made up yet.

Yeah we are, but I’ll say this: I find it hard to believe, but If the rumored difference in NIL is true, combined with the fact the kid would walk into AH with 30 mins and 15 shots a night no questions asked  and he punts on that to go to UK that would mean, 1) the kid’s 1st priority is winning. and 2) there was nothing DDV could do about it. Not only would I not be mad at the kid, I would respect him leaving that kind of money on the table to hunt a Natty enormously.

So we need to find players that don't look at things through a race lens? I agree.
