"Who's Coming to Kentucky?" Thread (UPDATE: Kentucky Lands Jaxson Robinson!)

There is a big rumor floating Johnell Davis will commit tomorrow, 70% ....

Between us and Arkansas.

Add Osobar, Davis, J. Robinson gets on board, we got something folks...

I think the Davis stuff came from troll accounts. I’d love it, but I wouldn’t put too much stock in that.

Also rumored Brea is on campus. Bad information was put out to distract but it's Ky or Uconn..

Who knows whats true but our staff is working...

Maybe but I think we are at a point to where good players are not only looking at the money, but where can I go and win now. We arr getting to the point where we can now offer both, getting Williams and Otega started a domino effect in my opinion..

Coach Hart, G League head coach, probably knows exactly what to say to keep kids in college and getting paid. More money to be made playing college than G league now..

Pope is piecing together an interesting roster quickly. Let's keep the momentum up.

Big couple of days for Kentucky basketball. Brea and Osobor both on campus.

And that was a big get for Pope with Andrew Carr. Landing a guy who has proven himself at a power conference school is pretty important, especially considering Carr expressly said before his visit that he was going to take more visits after Kentucky.

If we can somehow land both these guys with the possibility of Jaxson Robinson, we have a team.

Someone like J. Davis would have to look at that and say, i can win there if he's really concerned about winning.

If not, hopefully the kid from Utah can get his situation worked out, we need a PG but Perry could be better than advertised. Doubt if he's a Reed Sheppard type of freshman but if you put the ball in his hands and let him work, you never know...

[Joneslab]

Have to think he's probably still angling for a point guard considering I read that Lamont Butler spent most of his time last season playing off the ball.

Wouldn't be surprised if he lands Minnesota's Elijah Hawkins when it's all said and done.

So, how tall is Carr? KSR listed him as 6’11” and 6’8” in the same article.

I'm gonna say he's 6'11" considering he's taller than Mark Pope in the photographs.

Hawkins would be such a disappointing pickup.

And Carr was listed at 6'11" on Wake Forest's roster last season.

Agreed, especially if the academic stuff with the Utah transfer is real.

Hawkins did have a 17 assist game last season. "Ball movers" in Pope's offense are going to be crucial.
