FWIW, Kentucky lost to Ohio in all star game by 4. 112-108 or something like that. KyKy won Kentucky's Most Outstanding player. Wonder how many blocks Miles had. Did Curtis do anything exciting?
Per Twitter, KyKy hit a 3 over Curtis and Miles was super hyped.

I read Miles has 3 pts & 2 blks.

yikes.

Not sure how I feel about SIX frosh. yikes as that is a lot of growing pains and unhappy guys with little playing time. We shall see.

Sort of where I’m at. But if Dwon feels ready to come now, and the staff communicated they also think he’s ready, then he pretty easily becomes the best of the six incoming freshman.

Curtis hit the game winning three and free throws but that was basically all he did. i think he ended up with 13 points or something like that. amari davis from trotwood was ohio's best player

Conflicted as well. I'd almost prefer him to stay in 2020 and have Bryce Moore transfer in. Given the potential of the team and expectations, a gritty defender and above average shooter would be preferred.

Dwon coming next year means we're no longer in danger of losing him next year, especially if jonas leaves, so that'd be nice.

Great point. I also think it’s for the best. Right now we’re basically replacing 2 guards (Castlin and Hardin) with 2 guards (Tandy and Bishop). The other 4 incoming are bigs. Some extra depth would be nice.

If if it’s at the cost of the grad transfer from WMU, fine. Possible short term loss but substantial long-term gain. But we could be disappointed relying on someone post-ACL surgery, especially hearing he played so long on it. That very likely means the meniscus was further damaged and his recovery will never be complete.

I'm confused, wasn't the WMU guy's surgery after last season, or was it this year ? I think we need as many guards as possible, as long as we have 2 bigs.

From what I heard on Odom from a very in the know source is that he is not coming this year. The info I heard is that he will not be able to graduate this year.

The article quotes him as saying that “I’m eligible and everything”, and that he will make the decision in June, after his school year ends in May.
