To be fair, Reed Bailey also has some big boys wanting him.  Might not have been at the same level, but Kentucky contacted Bailey.

It's been quiet but as far as I know we're still in the running from Elyjah Freeman. If (big IF) we land him, it would be against some big time schools too. He's visited IU and Auburn and will be visiting Tennessee tomorrow.

Would everyone rather Have conerway or Mack?

I haven't watched them play, so I don't really have a preference based on that. I'd be happy with either from their stats. Probably an edge in preference for Conerway.

Conerway averages 2.5 steals per game. Was also  a conference POY. Much higher PER than Mack.image.thumb.png.39a20d69142165e1e394448b95964384.png

Mack has more eligibility left and is a slightly better shooter from 3 and the FT line. Looks like he might not be as good of a finisher around the rim as Conerway.

General feeling over at Rupp Rafters is that it sucks to not get him.

I did see one really whacked comment saying that Wilkerson looked very uncomfortable at Keeneland and it was good that Pope took him there because it exposed Wilkerson’s anti-social personality…and would certainly be a cancer.  My paraphrasing.  LOL So many maroons, as Bugs would say.

I imagine Wilkerson, Devries, and Bailey are locked in as projected starters. Let's assume the starting PG is in the Conerway/Enright mold (defensive minded distributor).

What are you looking for to round out that lineup?

I think you can be flexible, but I’d probably ideally look for an athletic 4/5 hybrid who’s in the 6’8 - 6’10 range and can play around the rim and help us defensively.

How does Mack have more eligibility? They’ve both been in school in two years.

Yes, Conerway has only 1 year. He was JUCO, I believe.
