Every single one of them could have gone to Dayton to play for Archie and still would have made the NBA. UK had nothing to do with getting to the NBA. 

That may be true. But we're talking about what Cal can sell. He can sell that. Do you honestly think its a good sales pitch to a recruit to say, "yeah but most of those players could have come to play for me somewhere else and still been in the NBA."? That's a pretty lame selling point.

Of course not. But that means he’s selling snake oil. There’s nothing special about UK when it comes to the NBA. It boggles my mind people can’t see that. How Alford fooled Wilkes with the same lies boggles my mind even more

Just my opinion, if Rob hadn’t gotten hurt, he’s our best playmaker by now.  I’m not sure he isn’t anyways.  Scoring we need, but scoring becomes easier if we have a shooter or two to spread the floor.  
 

I 100% agree. No one will ever convince me that all these injuries we have had were a major contributing factor with the poor play for 13 games, Especially RP's injury.

Saw something 11-4 with Rob healthy and 4-10 without a healthy rob.

Jerome Hunter!

Hunter may never play. He needs another backup.

The scary reality is Archie has to plan that way. The doctor's don't know at all since it is a condition. Now, that doesn't mean Jerome can't light it up and be a B1G POY someday.

Yep but some people dont seem to get that. They dont seem to understand how serious it is.

This is like the opposite of Race and Rob. We don’t have a clue how serious it is. Yet it’s all doom and gloom.

That is a remarkable difference but a handful of those "healthy" games were early season cupcakes.

I think the breakdown is 4-2 and 2-10 in the big ten.

Archie has a good thing going in-state, and I think Keion will want to be a part of it. He’s NBA bound regardless.

Are in home visits allowed right now? Could we even have one with him up at La La?

We did not make a last week visit with Darius right? So if these happen and we don’t go, that would be another clue

If it’s blood clots* then another year on blood thinners and practicing with limited contact could help. I had two episodes of clotting in a short amount of time, 8 months, and then went 8 years off blood thinners before I clotted again. If we land Brooks it could give Hunter, if willing, another year to get right.

Last I heard the family was done with visits. Archie made the trip to Vandy and watched him practice a couple weeks before he announced
