Following potential 2015 draftees

That's not why I posted, but thanks for the rep.

I found it interesting that Cal said he thinks/wants 7-8 players from this team could get drafted.

I actually agree with him.

An. Harrison
Aa. Harrison
Poythress
WCS
Towns
Lyles
Ullis
Johnson

Are all potential guys who could get drafted this year. Plus the other guys on the team, one thing though, I doubt Ullis would leave for the NBA after this season knowing he is undersized and he would go in the 2nd round.

A lot would have to happen, obvi.. win a vast majority of their games (go 37-3 or 36-4) + win a National Championship + the bench players show potential/play well on the court.

Not out of the realm of possibility though, considering there is a 2nd round of the NBA Draft.

Best I can do.. halftime snapshot of a boxscore from scorers table. At least you can see the names.

No coach listed for UK. Did he resign?

I actually watched part of the game. Was flipping through the channels and nothing else was on worth watching. UK was pretty impressive, even without WCS.
 
So Calipari was just joking/lathering up opponents with faux respect about you guys going 0 for this trip right? I was just looking over team Dominica:

and most of their guys are pros......in South America.....and they even have a few cast offs from American colleges that aren't playing pro anywhere. No way you guys lose. And no way did any sane person ever pick you guys to lose on this trip.

First, not many coaches say something along the lines of, "we should win these games."
Secondly, you just have no idea how guys are going to come together and play in August (when most years college practices can't even begin until October).
Thirdly, Calipari is king of hyperbole.
 
So yeah... UK beat Dominican Republic. Poythress with 20/10 in 19 minutes. Hes become awesome.
I was at the game. Poythress had 5 rbs but he was indeed very good.

And I just snatched a copy of the boxscore paper from one of my friends at the scorers table.
