His point is he wants you and everyone to know that he is important and thinks is in the know. Haven’t you got that from his posts everyone of them let’s you know he travels and is at peach jam and and on the circuit watching these kids play like it’s some special power or deal to be at these events. I’m a mailman and I’m at these events that are drivable all summer talking with scouts and coaches and tracking these kids.

So are you a big deal too? Just checking because I have a hard time deciding who the biggest deal is around here. (Sarcasm)

I got to give out a game ball this year. Maybe I am the big deal too. Can we get special badges on here so people know?

Does that make you a big deal or a big baller?

I don’t know what a big baller really is ...

pUKe added a grad transfer today from Bucknell Nate Sestina, 6’9” forward. Man they are really packing in the forwards for next year!

So this picture for this thread shows Cal and some other coaches and is that Matt Nover as well? Is he coaching somewhere?

Geez ... hate to beat a dead horse, but looks like UK is about to add Jaden McDaniels, a  skinny 5*, 6'9" small forward.

That leaves McDaniels, Juziang, Sestina, Richards, Whitney, Montgomery, Allen, and Brooks all fighting for the same 3/4/5 minutes. 

Eight players for three spots, and while Keion is very good, I'm not sure he starts the summer with a clear playing time advantage over any of them except Allen. McDaniels, Sestina, and Montgomery would seem to be 20+ mpg guys.

He may end up being a one and done, but it will likely have to be based on 15 mpg at most.

Would really love to know how the Brooks family is feeling about all this.

, he said with a sinister grin.  He sipped his prune juice, adjusted himself, and remarked, "Yes, it's all starting to work nicely."

I’m always game to insult Kentucky fans but the ones that told KBJ he wasn’t wanted, Man they seem like they were dead on. Broken clock is right twice a day I suppose

It still amazes me he didn’t choose IU or MSU

I posted the same thing last week. Peegs guys claim the Brooks family is okay with it and that momma Brooks talks to McDaniels mom. I don't get who was giving this kid advice. Calipari will just bring in more talented guys next year. He is never going to be the guy at UK. At best their 4th-5th best player. He could have been the man at IU and Michigan State.  Ask Terrence Jones, , Doron Lamb, the Harrison Twins, James Young, etc how their NBA career is going. Being the 4th/5th best player at UK doesn't get you far.. talent like John Wall, DeMarcus Cousins, Anthony Davis, KAT, etc are smart to go to UK. Cal thrives with those kids. Not borderline one and dones..

I saw their fans saying platoon time again. No way is this team that talented. Probably top 5.

They're okay with it until their kid is sitting on the bench during crunch time for multiple games in a row, and other kids are either mucking things up or being interviewed on ESPN, while their kid sits and steams.

That happens at all schools, but it's probably worse when the kid in question is a borderline five star.

Yes!!! I'd like to see their reaction when Keion is playing 15 minutes (if that) a game. And again, Cal will bring in more talented players the following season. He will have the same exact role. See Nick Richards, Wenyen Gabriel, Briscoe, etc. I smell a transfer in the future. 

[Hoosierfan2017 21,557]

I figured this would happen if Keion came back for a sophomore year. I'm surprised to see it happening before he even starts his freshman year. Oh well, Kentucky is what he wanted. He's going to get everything Kentucky has to offer, including a coach who isn't afraid to recruit right over you without a second though.

I wonder if KB Senior uses twitter? Somehow it wouldn't surprise me if some griping tweets popup during the upcoming season.
