He played for Georgetown and Texas Tech.

Don't understand how Mac would not have to sit out if he transfers again. While there was a blanket waiver for last year due to covid, I assume the new rule will take effect for 2021/22. The new rule is for a one time transfer exception. Mac has already transferred once or maybe twice.

Beats me. Just passing along what I’ve heard. I had the same thought as you, though.

Rocket Watts is the latest name I've seen UK involved with. Michigan St. transfer. Hasn't had a great career.

Really hope we stay away from that guy. Can't shoot a lick.

How do you go from Point Guard U , with Fox and SGA as recent players, to this ???

Easily the biggest mystery in all of this.

There are some names I really like that Kentucky has reached out to. A couple of pretty jaw-dropping names that would immediately make us better. Watts isn't one unless he went through a major transformation as a player.

Coming out of high school he might've been but he's really struggled at Michigan St.

I thought Cal had a plan but this doesn't give me any confidence that he actually does. Pretty shocking they are even remotely considering this guy. He's been flat awful.

Although it needs to be said that if we got both Scoota Henderson and Rocket Watts who could guard us?

Could you imagine the call in show? There would have to be a new version of "Is Reechie gonna play?"

And Calipari would deserve it.

Throw in Carr and that’s a back court with...a lot of horsepower.

Center Walker Kessler to Auburn. Folks, Auburn will be TOUGH next year!

Jemarl Baker, who played at UK in the late 1980s it feels like, lands at Fresno State.

Our interest in seemingly every transferring guard with a pulse should have been our first clue, but there’s a growing belief that Mintz won’t return.

Also an indication Cal shouldn’t have declined Powell and that we’re in full on scramble mode for another summer?

Powell wasn't going to be an option regardless of Mintz. He wanted UK but Cal/UK did not want him and never offered. They each had VERY differing visions on what Powell's role at UK would be and (from what I am told) Cal was not a big fan of the Powell's collective thoughts/attitude.
