Class of 2018 - General Discussion

[Joneslab]

Cal said today that he was looking to sign one or possibly two more.

Ben Roberts says it's Zion and Moses Brown. Barring a decommit it looks like those are the two he'll be pushing for in the spring.

[George]

Hoping for Zion and Wiseman via reclassification, instead.

Same. Moses Brown looks like he COULD be good, but plays sooooo lethargic and generally looks like someone shot his puppy while hes playing. Demeanor means a lot from separating talent. Just doesnt seem like a kid that would take to Cals style of coaching.

Yeah. I’ve never been overly impressed.

Matt Jones was strongly hinting that Wiseman was the center he's going for in the spring, as a reclassification.

That, with Zion, would be huge.

That's what I like to hear.

Those two + the current commits + our likely returnees = Cal's best shot to win another title in his remaining time at Kentucky.

Yep. I think it's happening.

[Joneslab]

Bol Bol to Oregon.

[George]

Never got over getting cut. I'm not convinced Cal was as enamored with him as we once believed, anyway.

[Dwight Schrute]

I'm not one to sound the alarms, but...why can't Cal land these kids anymore?

[Joneslab]

"I'm not convinced Cal was as enamored with him as we once believed, anyway."

I agree. There is no way he would have cut him had he really wanted him.

The only way he would is if he thought Bol Bol was such a certainty that he felt like he could cut him during that training camp and it wouldn't matter in the end.

But that seems far-fetched. A guy on Rivals said to me a month or so ago, "It wasn't Cal's decision." I don't believe that. If Cal wanted him they wouldn't have gone about the U19 thing like that.

[J.Jennings]

Yahtzee!!!!! Oh my bad, we missed out on another one!!!!!!!!

[justford]

I also believe mama was very upset with Cal.

Shittu commits to Vandy.

When they get Langford they are going to have the #2 recruiting class behind Duke.

Probably a top 6-7 team next year.

When we get Zion and Wiseman we’ll surpass Vandy, and maybe Duke, too.
