    I was getting ready to post the exact same thing as the last two posts. I have yet to read where anyone in a position to know has publicly verified any amount spent on either an individual or a team.

What the kids earn, they earn, but I think it would be best for it not to be advertised for rival fan bases and the college basketball player universe to know about.
      Completely agree.

        Folks today is a big recruiting day for Mark Pope and Kentucky basketball. Hopefully some good results will come from it.

          Fingers crossed for some good news. We could all use some in BBN

            Pope needs these two commitments really bad.

              Of these 4 guys with visits (Diallo, Wright, Stokes, Freeman) ... obviously Pope won't secure all 4. IMO anyway. I'd be thrilled if he just landed Wright and Freeman. Still leaves the need for at least 4 more players and at least 1 more starter, assuming Hawthorne & Potter are both back.

              Aaron Torres only mentioned UK having 4 guys committed for next year, didn't mention Hawthorne or Potter. Those two are confirmed to be coming back, aren't they?

                After reading on our targets, Wright is the guy I really hope we can land asap. Land a quality PG and guys will want to join

                both Hawthorne and Potter have said they are back next year

                  Kam Williams, Trent Noah, Braydon Hawthorne and Reese Potter have announced that they are 100% returning. Malachi Moreno has announced that if/when he returns, it will definitely be with Kentucky. Mason Williams is an incoming 4 Star Point Guard who has committed to UK.

                  That's six (including Moreno). Both of the past two seasons Pope has carried a minimum of 13 players, so that would leave 7 portal transfers/incoming freshmen that he likely will be adding . If Stokes commits to UK, my guess is he will be the only additional freshman with the other 6 or so being portal transfers. If he goes elsewhere, all 7 will likely be portal transfers.

                      Wright is my #1 choice as well.

                      And yes, Hawthorne and Potter have both announced that they are coming back.

                          It looks like we are getting some predications for him to UK. I've been burned too many times on that, so I won't get excited until an official announcement from him; but this all seems positive.
