    Matt Jones says another reclassification is possible "depending on who leaves."

    Who would have to leave in order to entice Carey? And would you be satisfied with the loss of a vet in exchange for a guy like Carey?

      I like that so many of next year's commits are being described as "dogs." Might just be the buzz word of the moment, but the implication is exciting.

      Johnson, Montgomery, Herro, and now Hagans all have people on record describing them as such. And as Kyle Tucker said earlier, you add P.J. and Vanderbilt back into the fold - two guys who also try to embarrass opponents - and that's a team with a nasty streak.

      Then, if the Carey stuff is actually true and that happens? Good grief. That kid is MEAN. Like, definition of a bully.

      Giggity. I need to stop.

        He'd be playing young, but so were MKG and Booker and Knox.

        James Wiseman's only four months older.

        Interestingly, Ashton Hagans will turn 19 in July.
        Would Carry be a two year player due to his age?

          Vernon Carey would take a back seat to no one, so yes, I would exchange a vet for him.

            Where's the Carey smoke coming from? Not that I don't trust you; just curious.

              And I'm with you, but I still think there's a little more to consider.

              Let's say it's P.J. or Vanderbilt. You lose one of those guys for next year and get Carey in return. Obviously, that's a win every time.

              But, Carey's also gone after a year. Hypothetically, what if the player we lost would come back for a junior year? Is Carey worth that?

                I had the same thought. It would appear so, but that seems too good to be true.

                  Carey just met with Coach K and has a meeting set up with Roy this weekend.

                    He just had a meeting with us, too.

                      I recall the resident negative Nancy saying after Zion chose Duke that next year should just be canceled and just give them the trophy. Just goes to show that we should never underestimate what Cal might be able to pull off.

                        A grad transfer would be nice to go along with our incoming class. I can say one thing: we have more shooters this year along with a little more agressive play.

                          I will take an over abundance of quality guards any day of the week! The hope now is that PJ or Vandy or both comeback to solidify our front court. If that happens, we should be really good next year.

                            Yep. He's been compared the Cousins. I love those type of players and we never get enough of them. A lot of people forget how nasty Magloire was. Those guys intimidate opponents. More please!

                              If some of our next year recruits are described as dogs--I hope they are PIT BULLS!!!!!

                                Kyle Tucker just revealed the 2019 player he mentioned yesterday, and it ain’t Carey.

                                Apprently, Tyrese Maxey is interested in coming to Lexington a year early.

                                Talk about a back court.
