    Kind of a bummer. I always liked Lance.
    Same here, this sucks for real.

    Doubt if anyone watches the NBA but Ware is the same type of player as Isaiah Hartenstein of the KNICKS. Nothing flashy just a get down and gritty hard worker...

        I'm not against him coming certainly but he is a risk.

        HOWEVER, you've got to have an insurance policy with Oscar's situation being up in the air. You have to.
        You just don't find a lot of guys with his build who can move like he does. I'd gladly take the chance on him.

          This whole situation smells like another Cal mess up. Today, there's nothing to get excited about. Tomorrow, who knows.

              No, it doesn't. Good gracious.

                Isaiah Hartenstein is gritty and a hard worker, but he's also about a thousand times more skilled at everything than Lance Ware.

                Isaiah Hartenstein would step on any college team tomorrow and instantly be runaway NPOY.

                    So Dickinson claims we need updated facilities

                    That's on Mitch not Cal

                      You're eaten alive with Calipari hate to the point it influences every comment about the basketball program, accurate or not.

                        You don't know even know the details of the situation or how the roster will shake out.

                        If we are left starting Ugo as center with a 6 man roster, then trash Cal all you want. But that ain't happening, and you know it.

                        Blame Cal for disasters that have happened, not roster movement that isn't close to being set.

                          I really don't think it'll be Ugo or bust and I believe Oscar will eventually come back...BUT the way he went after Dickinson suggests that it's at least a possibility.

                            TJ Walker sent out a tweet this morning that made it explicit that Kentucky backed out of the Dickinson sweepstakes.

                              Yeah, not sure. I mean they brought him in for a visit certainly. It's possible when he started bargaining through NIL Kentucky backed out...but would TJ Walker know that?

                              I'm skeptical on that one but maybe.

                              Neither here nor there now. Gotta get somebody.

                                Which makes sense simply because it comes to a point that if you don't want to be be here, then go somewhere else and get it over with. I hate missing on recruits but at the same time, last thing Cal wants to do is become desperate, it is still a honor to play for Kentucky, at least it is in my opinion.....
