The House of Blue

That's good to hear. As far as Nova maybe they like the coach or someone and want to throw them a bone by listing them. Or maybe the reason is scarier.

No offense to the other schools involved but if I'm UK, I'm not sweating Maryland, Baylor or Villanova.

Yeah, that's a good point. If we aren't even looking at a plan B you gotta be pretty comfortable with plan A lol

I see Young as more of a 3 than a 2.

He's not a 4 by any stretch. That had to be a typo.

He's a 2/3 interchangeable guy. If his handle improves, he could be a 2 at the pro level.

Sorry I know Harrow is a transfer. So it would be a three year player.

Because of family ties I think Maryland has been our main competition the entire time. Stoglin would've likely went pro after this year anyway so he wouldn't have been there when the twins go there.

Unless he was going to dramatically change his game and become a pure point guard, Stoglin's nba stock was not very good. He's a 6ft. tall shooting guard who is a ball chucker. He is a blur from rim to rim but nothing about his game says nba point guard. Think Scottie Reynolds from Villanova, a very good 4 year college player who physically limited to compete in the nba. His best chance of playing pro ball is playing overseas.

I know the twins are looking at running "the show" from day one in order to showcase their skills to become "one and dones" and there probably is no better place to do that than Kentucky. It almost doesn't matter to them who is currently on the roster such as Harrow might be when the time comes but trust me when I say this, Stoglin was a MAJOR obstacle. He was almost guaranteed to stay all 4 years anyway and was a MAJOR ballhog. With him definitely not being there, Maryland's chances went from slim to solid contender. I still feel Kentucky may lead but the margin is definitely not as wide as thought of before this went down.

BTW, yes I'm a UMD fan and this is all legit info from other insiders on other boards. A couple of solid insiders from other sites have been in touch with their family recently and have gotten pretty good info

You're right about kids who think more of themself as far as their stock compared to what everybody else views them as. There was never any guarantee that he would've stayed all 4 years. He was definitely coming back next year though and if he was serious about trying the nba, he would've left after this year on his own, not by getting suspended.

Our staff was never confident with the twins recruitment up until this happened, now they say we have a legitimate shot. Turgeon and Bino has been out to see them much more in recent time ever since he knew Stoglin got suspended where as before they spent more time looking at other PG prospects like Rysheed Jordan. Like I said, I still feel UK leads as well given the fact that the twins plan is to go one and done, and Cal is selling that angle better than anyone else in the country.

We'll see what happens cuz there is still a ways to go and other schools like Kansas and Arizona could get back into the mix according to them. Until then, I can't wait till the Kentucky/Maryland game next season! I feel MD will make a game of it for awhile but won't have enough talent on offense to keep up with you guys the entire game. Really looking forward to watching Poythress play, that kid is an absolute stud!

I wish they would already verbal. Don't like the wait.

Neither have committed so Cal has to recruit others as well as they look at other programs. If we get 2 high tier players that want to commit , then it will be interesting to see what the twins would do then. I love those guys but sometimes you take what you can get if quality players step up and say I want to play for you.

With the way our recruits get hot and become "potentially better then good", I wouldn't bet on either of those guys being back so I think Cal gets a restocking fee for the fourth straight year.
