Seems like every time we have a bad season, the narrative is that the team gave up and chose to suck :lol: I didn't see any quit in guys like Davenport, Battle, Blocker, Mark, Lawson, Ellis. Some guys like Pinion, Fall, Menifield, rarely saw the court. Not sure how you'd even determine they w...

We need a stretch 4 type (a lot of smoke around Kasean Pryor) And a more experienced PG (DJ Wagner likely committing soon) Wooga Poplar has been talked about but not much info there If we miss on Pryor I imagine we'll look for another 4, not sure who...

That's combining guys over multiple years. I never said he didn't use the portal at UK. As I said, this will be a less freshman-heavy class than Cal ever had at Kentucky. ...
