Class of 2019 - General Discussion

[Joneslab]

Kentucky is hosting graduate transfer Nate Sestina as we speak. Averaged 16 and 9 for Bucknell last season. Has NBA potential as a stretch 4.

I guess I am in the minority but I don't see the guarantee that Keldon is gone. Maybe he will be drafted on potential and become a great NBA player.

He's probably slipped since the middle of the season, but he was projected in the top ten then. Don't see any way he falls out of the first round so I would say he's definitely gone.

Plus: we need Keldon to have a huge weekend. I thought he was really good against Wofford in the second half but Keldon tends to play great in halves and not for full games. If he could find a way to be consistent this weekend and help UK to the Final Four that would really help his stock.

Very nice. Now if we can add Hurt and hang on to Richards, Quickley and Baker well have a solid team.

Then hope Cole Anthony doesn't join Carey at Duke.

I have a gut feeling Cole is going the UNC route.

I'm with you: with our 2019 commits, your list and I'll add E.J. and Hagans, we got something. Tyler just might have played himself into a late round lottery pick so depending on NBA feedback he may leave, and of course P.J. and Keldon are gone.

This kid sounds like a great addition for next year. Welcome young man!

[KCKUKFan]

Awesome addition. Welcome to Kentucky, Keion!

Welcome to UK, Brooks

[lilproUK98]

Looks like Brooks to UK is happening in 2 days.... Cal visited yesterday and another pick was made for UK on 247

[JFCats22]

Keion Brooks to announce his decision on March 15

[lilproUK98]

Another possible, and intriguing, option for next year....

Highly skilled Euro forward Tristan Enaruna...

Cats have offered 2020 5* Isaiah Todd, and rumblings that he might reclassify to 19.

If he reclassifies he will be a Cat.

Saw Brooks play on ESPN a couple of weeks ago. Baller.

If Cal can grab him it would great improve our chances at fielding a competitive team next year. Think he's a guy who can come in and contribute from day one. Looked to me like he could play the 4 too with no problem.
