Trae Young eliminates UK

[BobS]

Likely KU. They are getting a good one. We really need a shooter next year and that's what this kid is. Oh well.

Loves UK but hates the dorms and the one and done aura. Interesting comments.

Sounds like his mother didn't like Kentucky more than he did and even the dad. I think she didn't like Kentucky and found a reason or two to push him away. Oh well. I'm glad I don't have to recruit these kids and all that comes with it.

It's clear that momma runs that household because his Dad flat out loved UK and Cal and said they would be his pick.

I'm a little confused on the dorms, didn't they just build coal lodge and that's where the basketball players stay, how is it so "outdated" as they mention?

The article on KSR makes it a little clearer.

"According to T.J. Walker of Cats Illustrated, Ray Young said the jab at UK’s dorms was in jest. “They couldn’t find anything seriously wrong with UK so Mrs. Young noted the dorms weren’t as great as other dorms.” That sarcasm is obviously difficult to discern in Jordan’s feature."

This article makes it sound as if things have been over between UK and Young for months.

The Trae Young ship sailed when Quade Green committed. And it was probably over before then, too.

I have been inside the Wildcat Lodge.....TOP notch not sure how anyone would not love it

Easy to say now that we know we won't get him, but between this and Young's father calling out the Norman media, Cal may have avoided a lot of "clutter."

Thanks for clearing that up....I completely looked over the "sarcasm" that was apparently intended....which is obviously why I was so confused.

100% agree, but it goes back to the old saying of take what you can get....what if Cal passed on Green and then didn't land Young either, we'd really be in trouble.

And I also agree with Downes, I would say they are very boisterous parents who like the media attention.

That article was poorly written then. You can't discern sarcasm,usually when reading written words. The author of that article need to point that out. Like Downes said a lot of clutter was probably avoided. Its obvious the parents are going to control their gravy train.

[Joneslab]

It was clear even before Green, when Kentucky threw virtually the kitchen sink at him and he wouldn't commit.

Not much you can do in a situation like that.

[85 Fly]

I knew he wasn't coming here thought it would be nice but realistically think KU or OU lands him

[GOCAT15]

Wow, OU landed him....Love that!

[GOCAT15]

Duke and KU are going to be after Duvall hard now!
