2018-2019 Grad & Sitout Transfer Thread
-
And there it. SKJ transferring from Kentucky. Sit one to play 2. I actually expect one more post to leave out of that group. Could be anyone at this point. But 5 is still a lot of mouths to feed.
-
Lol UK fans losing it on each other right now too.

Well, you called it. Props.

I would bet he ends up at UVA.

Derp.

UVA would be scary with a rim protector like SKJ in Bennett’s system. They may hold a team under 25.
-
UVA would make a lot of sense for him.
-
@justanotherfan Well that was where he originally committed, and I have already read rumors actually. But I agree, not sure they have had a post athlete like him yet.
-
I do remember him originally committing there. I can’t remember anyone like that since Bennett got there, which could vault SKJ into the NBA if he’s a lockdown rim protector for a year at UVA. I imagine a lot of ACC teams with that sinking feeling of being suffocated on the perimeter and funneled hopelessly into the teeth of a shotblocker. Rinse and repeat.

Texas Tech lands St Johns grad transfer Tariq Owens. Going to be a pain to deal with in the Big-12. Owens avg’d 8ppg, 5boards, almost 3 blocks per
Kris Martin who a few weeks ago decided to transfer from Colorado St to OU has decided to stay. Wonder if he wasn’t going to be ruled eligible immediately…
-
Michael Carter the 3rd transferring from Washington.
Maciej Bender of West Virginia transferring.

TIME TO CHECK IN ON THE MARYLAND BOARD SINCE THEY THOUGHT THEY HAD HIM LOCKED UP IF BRUNO DECLARED.

Oh some very sensible threads.
Fire
Turgeon Now!This site is depressing!!!
What does Turge have to sell to recruits?
Sniffing and Wiffing
Negative recruiting and message boards
-
"selling him on their player development ability and their focus on winning, promoting the isolation of Lubbock – the lack of distractions from basketball – as a plus. "
Lol.

Lol.
Owens old coach at Tennessee (his first stop) is in Lubbock. But I guess their water source really needs a change the way they react to things
-
@BeddieKU23 hmmmm, Bender? - -he was getting some quality minutes interesting.

If Konate returns he wasn’t going to start. I think the other forward spot is full too. Writing on the Wall…
-
@BeddieKU23 Yeah that’s the real reason but you can’t say that. Had to laugh at player development though. I’m sure Owens followed Beard’s work at McMurry University and Angelo State closely.
-
@BeddieKU23 @jayballer73 They also added Derek Culver who is immediately better than him.
-
@BShark the fact that they have a 27 page thread on firing Turgeon cracks me up.
Not to mention how dellusional they are about who they could hire. Talking about Mike White, Jay Wright, Tony Bennett lol. That job is no better than any other P5 job for the most part. They must really think they are a Blue Blood type

They really want to be. The whole Dotson & Silvio recruitments really brought out how badly they want acceptance. some other fan bases we know get like that too
-
“Tariq Owens said role in offense was a factor, but biggest thing for him was wanting to win. Feels better chance for that at Texas Tech.”
That tweet went over very well on their board.

I didn’t realize Culver was at WV. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

I know Scouts are impressed with him. If he gets a combine invite he might stay in. Some scouts have said Jordan Bell going 2nd round and getting a big contract from the Warriors helps him. He’s in the same mold.
I hope he leaves, can’t stand him

He was supposed to be already at West Virginia but he flunked a class and had to go to Brewster for a year. He was really good for them
-
@BeddieKU23 They had a thread just last week over Dotson’s comments at the McDAA. The actual hatred for him and his family was sickening.
@jayballer73 He was in last year’s recruiting class but didn’t qualify academically so he took a prep year at Brewster.

The internet is not a good place sometimes. Maryland’s board is living proof
-
Even if Konate leaves Bender would have West, Ahmad, Harris and likely Culver in front of him. Likely wasn’t going to get any more pt this year than last.
-
@BShark Maybe - but West and Harris are different position players then Bender aren’t they?
-
They also have a Juco Center coming in. Logan Routt played for them last year too, sometimes getting more minutes then Bender
-
@jayballer73 In Huggy’s “system” I don’t see any big differences in the two post spots.
-
Calipari next year: We’re so young! Nevermind that we recruit over our older players.
-
I would be shocked to see Quade stay at this point.
-
@Kcmatt7 Me too - - Quade is GONE - I think100%
-
So if Vanderbilt and Washington leave and Green transfers its a team of 8 lol

So young!
There are rumors Vanderbilt might take a medical redshirt next season. Dunno if transferring or will stay at UK.

Wow I hadn’t seen those. Good info.
-
At this point, I don’t see Vanderbilt staying to come off of the bench again. He is either going pro or transferring imo. Green as well. UK fans are all happy right now, talking about depth. Its all about to leave lol.
I am glad that Bill doesn’t recruit this exact same way. This would absolutely be frustrating and tiresome. They will be adding players probably through June at this point.
-
@Kcmatt7 It’s like they weren’t paying attention when SKJ transferred. You don’t just add top 20 players and have older former top 20 players saying yippee I’m going to the bench.
-
@BShark Just basically bringing in another Shai, but it is going to cost them their best shooting guard from last year. I think this could turn into a nightmare for them honestly. We can only hope lol.
-
@BShark YIPPEE lol - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@Kcmatt7 And yet I’d be willing to bet if you were to check the fan boards I’d bet they are just beating the hell out of their chests not even considering about the transfers now and once again proclaiming how sure that this coming year the title for sure is their’s WHY? - Cause their Kentucky don’t you know lmao
-
Quade Green is considering transferring according to UK peeps. Imagine that becomes reality any day
-
@BeddieKU23 that wouldn’t shock me. I’d think Cuse would be really strong if he did. KU won’t have interest with Dotson already the guy for 19, and already having a similar player in Moore.
-
@FarmerJayhawk And having Jacobs on the way… Pretty set at that position, or else I’d be interested.
-
@Kcmatt7 good point. I’m not doing to discount Duke if Tre Jones is a OAD.

Yeah. Commons sense broke this story before anyone at UK. Heh.
-
I would think Syracuse would be his go to. Make up for his original mistake like Newman did. Funny thing to me, he went to UK knowing he was going to be a multi-year player there. But I don’t think he expected to be over-recruited.
48 hours ago, I thought UK looked like a top 5 team with depth and some experience. Now, I think they look like a 10 loss team again. They are now at a point where, for every new 5 star they take, they will be losing one with experience. Just seems like a poor trade.
- SGA > Hagans
- Sophomore Green > Quickley
- Knox > KJ
- PJ = PJ
- EJ = Junior SKJ
Don’t see where they improved this offseason.
