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

I don’t buy the “fit” talk re: Lanier. Sounds like it was a simple matter of the agent driving up the price, and UK standing pat at their limit.

I wouldn’t mind, except recent rumors have Kansas in the lead for Robinson if he returns to college.

Using the name Kentucky to get a pay raise at Tennessee...

If Robinson returns and does pick Kansas, is he coming off the bench??

If Furphy pulls out of the draft and returns to Kansas then probably so.

So that's that if it's true...

Most have him in the 1st round unless he has a horrible comine...

I have to believe that Robinson would choose Pope and Kentucky over self and Kansas but who knows..

[Joneslab]

Will be super weird with Pope, if Robinson does go elsewhere, that he will have brought no players from his team...and Louisville has two.

In the meantime, looking forward to the TBT tournament this year. If the Kentucky LaFamilia team happens to meet the UofL Alumni team, that should be a good game.....

I'm like others on here. I think we have a diamond in the rough scorer already committed and we do need another big. I'm also excited to see our team actually prepared to run an offense and have a defensive presence.

Kyle Tucker says that if they miss on both Lanier and Robinson, Kentucky could push for 2025 Will Riley to get reclassified.

Hope we don’t have to resort to that Calipari technique.

I was hoping for a UK bounce, but hey....in all honesty UK really does only have so much money to spread around.
if what we have is what we have, then I'll pull for these guys. Seems to kinda be on the structure of South Carolina last year, but I could well be wrong.
Anyway, just think....we get to do this all again next year! But it really isn't a whole lot different than seeing which NBA bound frosh might commit. Just a different world of recruiting.

I’m not inclined to create a new thread….but this will cause no small amount of change in college sports….

Does an athletic scholarship have any value with all of the changes occurring?

Great question. I wonder if players even have to go to class.

Or only have four years of eligibility.

Back to the original topic, some people, on X, are saying Lanier is still in play for UK. I thought he committed to UT?
