I guess they figure this is as good as it gets but they are way down the list. Have also heard Cal is "nudging" them that way.

University of Kentucky has scheduled a news conference for 2:30 Thursday for players to announce their decisions per BBN facebook . Potential for seven to enter the draft and rumors Willis may transfer. Ulis and Lee are the only one for sure back next year.

All kidding aside, it must suck for that fanbase to have a series of one-season stands with their players. I know they win a lot, but they win with players that never have the time to develop a cemented connection to the university, its students, or the fanbase.

One Harrison is a projected 2nd rounder and the other is projected undrafted (last I check on DX). I wonder how much that will change between now and the draft?

If they lose 7 or 8 players will Kentucky realistically be able to replace them with an equally talented squad? I feel like they will revert back to how they did the year Nerlens Noel was there and they missed the tourney

People think Roster turnover is a "Crean problem." Looks a issue all over the country. We are probably too hard on Crean.

One more time, a little louder into the microphone please.

I'll be honest and admit that I don't feel the same way about Eric Gordon, Noah and Cody that I do about Vic, Jordan, Derek and Verdell.  The latter 4 I've tried to keep close tabs on their careers after candystripes but I really don't follow the first 3 that closely and I think it relates to the lack of a 'cemented connection' because they were on campus for only 1 or 2 years.  Am I the Lone Ranger in this regard?

I've often used the word epidemic to describe what happens at the end of each season and I'll bet we don't hear of more than 2/3 of the transfers that take place if that many.  But are we too hard on Crean?  Nah!

Yea, I've discussed this at length with some older UK fans. They want to win but know deep down there is something almost weird about Cal and the constant turnover.

I agree. Cal will bring in another top class but they wont be near as good as this years group.

Vacancy at the Chateau Hillbilly.

There was extenuating circumstances with his case.

That was why I picked him. Both have extenuating circumstances.

I agree with you and feel the same way but I disagree with Cody. Why is it different with him? Is it bc he was here 2 years instead of 1? Or was landing him at that particular time so huge for this program? Maybe it's a little of both, idk
