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

Garrison. Building size on the front line. Could also be insurance in the Osobor recruitment.

[Joneslab]

Interestingly Garrison had his biggest game of the year last season against BYU.

Backup next year or not—if we’re looking to get out of one and done mode…they can’t all be 23 years old next season. Develop him. Keep him.

Wild coup by Pope.

Brea is coming, too. Get Robinson and a pure point and we can start dreaming dreams.

Nikola Jokic tip of the day...

When you are the slowest player on the court, get in front of someone on the outlet and break , make them go around you, negate the speed....

[KentuckyWild2020]

Mark Pope and staff is doing a helluva job....

It's very exciting for me to hear talk like this. I'm ultra confident in Pope.

Since entering the portal, he was also recruited by Arkansas! After Cal signed UT's former center Aidoo, we sign up Garrison. Very similar to UConn and Brea.

Are you suggesting we grabbed up Garrison because Osobar didn't commit to UK and plans to make his other vists?

Nice. Waiting for the "boom."

This would be the first recruitment in the Mark Pope era where a lot of people just assumed we wouldn't get him...and then we did. (Won't be the last.) Those plot twists are my favorite parts of following recruiting.

This won’t make anyone feel that good, but Trilly said something to the effect of, “don’t worry about how he got there; just be happy he’s there,” then when someone asked about Brea’s price Trilly added, “significantly lower than originally expected. He now has no leverage.” So it kinda sounded like he may have been stuck with UK.

Either way, he’s coming.

Goodman is apparently sayingi that Osobar is out. Not sure of the veracity of this. But that's his take/insight.

I’ll need to hear that from others. Goodman on his own is pretty questionable these days.

That's what I'm hoping.

That's what I'm hoping.

Plus, I mean, Osobor’s still on his visit lol. Goodman know something Osobor doesn’t?

[Joneslab]

Weirdly, it sorta looks like Goodman reached out to Osobor right as/after the Garrison stuff came out. That was weird timing. Sorta looked like Goodman might've fired up a text directly to them (or his agent) right after Garrison committed.

Strange. Not that it means anything necessarily, but still a little odd for a reporter to give such definitive comments as a player is on a visit.
