The Official 2017 Kentucky Wildcat Draft

[Blue Heaven]

We need a separate aftermath thread when this is done (seperate from the voting thread). There's 2 players in particular that I'm curious as to why they lasted this long. They both were drafted fairly late last year, if I remember right and I am not old enough as to know why lol.

I almost took one guard for my bench spot. Doubt he is there on the return but you never know.

Different. Last year I was just trying to take interesting players. This year I've tried to take more players from recent years--because I believe the recent players are the best individually to ever play at Kentucky. That's mainly from Pitino's and Cal's teams.

Think there's been a major change in the last decade-plus in terms of skillsets, players' athleticism, strength, and just the fact that these players are playing nonstop basketball when they're in high school.

I think if these teams were somehow to be actually put on the court, the guys with more recent players would win virtually all the time.

I agree somewhat, but there are some players who can play in any era. That statement obviously doesn't come from first hand knowledge, but through thorough research, and interviews from players and coaches who witnessed said player.

Am I on the clock?? I always look at the sticky thread to see when I'm up and it hasn't been updated in a while.

Yes you are.

I'm assuming it's my turn and I'm taking one of the best (2sport) athletes to suit up for the blue and white in Wallace "Wah Wah" Jones. At 6'4" I'm moving him to my SF position.

Thanks TC15...you are now on the clock.

I need both forwards. I'm a little surprised he's still here so I'm taking Waltah McCarty.

George you're up.
