The House of Blue

I haven't looked at anything past the '13 class.

I'm assuming we are in on this kid?

Cal is in with both Mudiay and T.Jones both PGs and both ranked #1 or #2 overall depending which recruiting service you look at.

If I'm Cal right now, with Wiggins re-classifying, your main target needs to be Tyus Jones. It's VERY likely Tyus, Jahlil Okafor, and Theo Pinson can all be a package to either Duke, UNC, or UK. Get those 3, we have 3 5 star players already. If not, focus on Mudiay, Stanley Johnson, Dakari Johnson, Cliff Alexander, Tre Lyles, JaQuan Lyle, and possibly D'Angelo Russell. Cal has already made this group priorities, but with Wiggins re-classifying, one is soon to become THE priority.

I know we do, but Mudiay is ineligible for this year, and I personally like Tyus Jones more. It is what it is. But Tyus Jones SHOULD be the PG we should be targeting. Signing him just about guarantees the signing of 3 star 5 players as I said.

I kind of agree about Jones over Mudiay and I think it could help some with KYs recruitment of Okafor and Pinson but with Mudiay probably sitting out this coming season and I havent heard if he is going to go to a Prep school out of state or not wont deter Cal from his recruitment of Mudiay but I still like Jones game better.

I wouldn't put too much weight in the "package deal" theory, it never seems to pan out. Plus Cal has never let me down with his picks.

I think its a tad early on the 14 class but we are in good shape with a bunch of these kids. Cliff Alexander is a best guy's and can compete with any big in this class. I think Jones likes Duke and Mich. St. and recruiting the package deals doesn't seem to pan out unless its something like the Harrison's where they are brothers. It just seems that when these package deals comes up there are just a few schools recruiting them . Then when their class becomes the priority and other top schools start getting involved these young teenagers do what is best for them and most of the time the package thing goes out the window. I do love Jones however and would love to see him at UK but I don't want him just to get other players, I like our chances with Okafor and I think Cal will put the full court press on him short after he wraps up this 13 class. Heck if we were to go undefeated then Cal may say there is nothing else left to do and call it quits. This is what I fear more than anything because we are a spoilled fanbase and don't want to go through another Tubby Billy G experience and right now I just don't see another coach out there who I think could fill Cals shoes.
