What's new

Following potential 2015 draftees

hahahahahahahhaha false.

Everyone that gets an offer from UK goes to UK. Keep dreaming, Hez.

Why do you think Mario would lie about that? Would saying this actually boost his draft stock? Seems like a weird thing to make up, if he did.
 
Booker rising and Hezonja coming over is good news for our slipping draft position.


Has anyone made the Booker/Klay comparison yet? Or am I the first?
 

errrrite

Also, I've always wondered how UK recruits the bench scrubs. Are they just walk-ons and 2 star recruits who wanna hang out with NBA prospects, "play" for Coach Cal, get free gear, maybe win a ring, and get dunked on in practice? I guess they have to be good enough to practice, but not good enough to want to get playing time for a smaller school?
 
One other small thing.. Booker is quite young. He doesn't turn 19 until 4 months after the draft. Very young.

There are usually 8 - 10 elite guys. The rest are "Kentucky kids" that dream to 'play' for UK. They are content to be able to say they suited up for UK. We have, every year, more than 200 kids audition for walk-on status. It's highly competitive, actually, and Cal expects they push the guys in practice. Hope that helps.

Gotcha, that's interesting. Sounds like it would be pretty fun to be one of those dudes.
