Portal

Nevermind, it looks like he was only a junior somehow so he's eligible. I'd take him in a heartbeat. Doesn't fix our PF problem, but you start him at the 3 and make Kam Williams the 6th man. Both could play the 4 in a pinch.

Burks averages 13.3 ppg on 45.5% from the field & 37% from the 3 while playing in the Big 12. Yes please. Get on it Mark, start reaching out now.

It showed he was a JR this year. But I cannot find where he is in the portal. Did UCF lose their coach?

Found an Instagram from 4 hours ago that states he is in fact in the portal.

Jordan looked like he turned into a baller in the few games I watched of him this season. I'll take him for sure if all else fails... but does he have any eligibility left?

Jordan Burks, maybe? Isn’t Justin Burke on our football staff?

KSR Happy Hour talking about portal, Stokes and Tyler Thompson said Jacob P, bringing up a 6'11" international player. It is on KSR plus and I do not subscribe.
Also said jamal Crawford turned down an assistant job at UK originally and is now thinking about it again. Said he was an assistant coach at Stokes HS this year.
Said McBride cancelled his other visit (louisville) and will make a decision soon. They expect tomorrow and he will choose between UK and no other option, UK. I think I might go the other option. lol
Justin Burke they talked about him coming back.

One thing for sure, McBride and the USC center visit went quietly. I have not seen any pics, any news on anything with either guy. Funny how that goes with Pope. If I were either one and the others got better treatment I would just go on to the next school. I would want to be wanted and not a oh, I missed my guy but you will do kind of thing.

Agreed.

I don't think Pope knows how to keep his emotions in check. One thing that has always annoyed me about him is how he handles the post-game handshake greeting with the opposing coach. If Kentucky wins, he wants to be nice, chummy and have a short conversation....but if Kentucky loses, he blows past them without making eye contact. He needs to be as gracious in defeat as he is in victory. If he doesn't want to have small talk after a loss, what makes him think other coaches do either? It's just part of the game. He needs to be better at handling disappointment.

Obviously not going to happen, but man that would amazing.




Where does Trilly D think both of those players will end up eventually? Don't tease me brother, drop the full scoop.

I'm guessing if not NBA.... then Yessoufou to UCLA.. & Momciliovic back to Iowa State , or to Kansas if Stokes picks Oregon.

He just said the post showed from him but it was a fake account. He did not specify anything of substance, just the account was fake and news untrue.

Trilly Donovan has been known to be wrong on occasion.

Evidently the original post was from Trilly Donavan. He came out and said it was a fake account and not a real post or any inside info.

[UKHoops01]

This was debunked on X by the real Trilly Donavan.

Another crazy rumor out there.

Yessoufou and Momcilovic to UK for $14 million.

Highly unlikely to be true, but that would get me excited.

Two top 5 portal players. Would solidify the starting five.

G Diallo/M. Williams
G Wilkins/K. Williams
F Yessoufou/Hawthorne/Noah
F Momcilovic/McBride(supposedly a done deal)
C Moreno/Potter

If we can add Dynes, D. Williams, Keita, or another decent backup Center, then even better.

But I would be content if we just add Yess and Mom. That’s two double digit scorers in the Big 12 last year. Would be a killer 1-2 punch.

I’d rather have either of those two than Stokes. Rather have those two together than one of them with Stokes.

Give me proven college stars and less drama.
