The House of Blue

I and Chris both said early on that Randle could actually be more valuable to the 2013 team than Wiggins would be as hard as that is to believe. Randle had glowing things to say about Cal in his blog when he described what the coaches were saying to him since his injury. Cal told him that if something came up and he couldnt play ball he could come to UK on scholarship and when he graduated he could be his asst. coach. Now of course Cal said this in jest but Randle said that Cal really would do that if worse comes to worse and you could tell that meant so much to Randle that he said that proves how much he cares about me and my future. Barnes from Texas told Randle he was still going to recruit him. Not too gracious on his part IMO. About the misread I could have done that , Im on 23 meds a day for a medical problems I wont go into but sorry if I did didnt mean to. Thanks for pointing out that tidbit about Randle and Harrison, sounds good.

Thanks but what I have there isnt anything but downhill. You have a Merry Christmas and Happy Ney Year. And I am glad you didnt say Happy Hollidays, just kidding.

I believe Im the king of "down votes" b/c I have received so many that I changed the name on my mailbox to"Mr. Down Vote" Just kidding but I have received more than my share of them. I wont add to yours so I apologize for that.

There are 2 arrows to the right of the posting area 1 pointing up, for a + vote and ! pointing down for a - vote. Just move your arrow to the up or down pointing arrow and click on that arrow and it will give whoever the vote. Too bad I cant give myself some up votes but I cant. Just kidding but its a good way to let the person know if they have come up with a good post or thread or not.

I tell you the truth that I was that way too. It took me a long while to figure it out also, but 1 day I took a chance and clicked on the up arrow and like they say"it was history". You have a great New Years and be careful if you are going out tonight.

Well for 1 Chris has said that on more than 1 ocassion and Dave Telep has said it. Is that enough if not ill get more. those are the ones that come to mind at the moment.. Its not that either is afraid of the competition b/c they arent it is b/c of minutes,shots,touches. You can only have so many stars on 1 team and have them all be happy and that doesnt include any players that may decide to return.

Wiggins will end up at FSU... His teammate is committed to them, his parents went there and his mom has already stated that UK spotlight may be to big for him... I'll take Johnson and Gordon...

If Wiggins goes to FSU because he just might not be ready for the spotlight at UK I'm just gonna LMFAO. That would be hilarious.

I love Gordon too. His athleticism is next to none. Has a non stop motor. I'd love to see us get him. With what we've got already just adding Gordon and keeping WCS we'll still be the #1 team in the country preseason. I'm not all that worried about getting Wiggins. Just means more shots for the Harrisons and James Young and those guys can flat fill it up. Marcus Lee is one hell of a player. If WCS stays and we add Gordon like I said we're gonna have a hell of a team with or without Wiggins. Don't get me wrong I wanna add Wiggins and/or Randle but if they both feel they are better off elsewhere then so be it. I just think its hilarious that spotlight would be a factor for a kid that is going to be a superstar in less than 2 years. He's gonna sign a big shoe contract and have other endorsements. In less than 4 years he'll likely be playing for the Knicks, Bulls, Lakers, or Celtics. Whats he gonna do about not wanting the spotlight then? LOL.

Oh I never said that the players themselves have stated they wouldnt play with one another it was just opinion on mine and others part but there is certainly nothing I have seen or heard from any of the players saying they wouldnt play with the others still on Cals wish list. I hope we get as many as possible and I think Dakari Johnson is a sure thing especially if WCS declares for the draft and maybe even if he doesnt.

Ab, your points are valid and I have said them myself, but I havent heard his mother say that. Wiggins is a very shy and unassuming kid that shys away from the spotlight as much as he can and his coach has said that over and over. W/o a doubt after his 1 year in college he will sign all kinds of contracts and will be featured in the media a great deal but that doesnt mean that he wouldnt want to put that off 1 more year and go to a school that the spotlight wouldnt shine so brightly on him as it would at UK but I am not saying he couldnt handle the attention but may just prefer to put it off 1 final year. If anyone would read his interviews when he is asked about how good he is or how he likes the attention they would see the same shy and unassuming player that I and his coach both see and perhaps their opinions might change a bit.
