    Some think Green isnt as talented as some of Cal's previous point guards, possibly a 2 yr player. Dont be surprised if Cal put the ball in Diallo's hands and let him play point and defend on top, hes done it before. ..

            Yeah - in Kentucky uniforms. Hindsight's 20/20, and looking at the players we saw during their single years at UK, it's clear that they could've gone straight to the pros.

            We still haven't seen Diallo play. Maybe we'll think the same about him this time next year.

              Wall was a high school legend. Dont forget he abused Jerry Stackhouse in a game before he came to Kentucky.


              Anyways yes, we knew from day 1 in UK uniform. .

                When has he taken the ball out of a pure PG's hands and given it to a guy who doesn't and won't at the next level play PG? No way he plays point over Green and Shai both.

                    Brandon Knight, depends on how you look at it, he technically played the 2 at Kentucky, plays point in the league..

                    Are you old enough to remember T. Evans and Memphis? You ever watch Calipari coaching the Nets? Who says Diallo wont play point at the next level, You???

                    Anyways, Cal will showcase the next player in line to leave for the pros, he always does.. ..

                      If Knight played the two and Lamb played the two, then who played the one?

                        What will Cam Johnson do? Any chance we are still in the running for him?

                          Knight played the two? Did that Memphis team with Evans have a pure PG like Green or Shai? You know, the two five star point guards we will have. I guess me saying Diallo won't play point at the next level carries as much weight as you saying he will. Or, maybe it's common sense?

                            Lots of options on this team but mark this down: Green will be our starting PG.

                              IMO, this Cal's best haul yet. Everyone is talking Hami and Knox, and for good reason, but Washington is gonna be a beast. Like I said, a ton of options and lineup tinkering at Cal's disposal. This is the most excited I have been about a Cal coached team and that was before we had Hami return. His presence is just icing on the cake. We are gonna be scary good this season. There. I said it.

                                The long national nightmare is over. So Diallo stays. I have nothing else good to say about this so I'll stay quiet.
