Class of 2021 - General Discussion

[teamchemistry15]

Sky Clark just committed to UK. That was unexpected by many. There's been reports he's been playing with NBA guys during the summer and has been the best player in the gym every time he plays.

[Joneslab]

Pretty big week for University of Kentucky sports, I'd say.

We've also picked up three crystal ball picks in the last few hours for Daimion Collins -- two of which are from Bossi and Snow, neither of whom make their picks without a comfortable degree of confidence.

If we manage to land Collins, his commitment will be a direct result of hiring Jai Lucas, which should make everyone feel pretty darn good about our future.

Not to mention we are probably getting Hopkins next week as well and as of now everyone seems to think we land Sallis. Do you know much about Collins or his game? I'm unfamiliar with him.

Collins is incredible. Very rare athleticism, especially at his size. He has the potential to be one of the highest-impact freshmen we've ever had. Not guaranteeing he will be if he commits to UK, but the potential is there.

WCS-esque with the athleticism? That kind of length as well?

He'd probably remind you more of Nerlens, but with a better offensive skillset. He's still raw, but more variety to his game than WCS. Knows his way around the rim much better than Willie did as a freshman (or maybe even as a junior). Willie ran like a gazelle in a giraffe's body and finished strong as hell at the rim, but Daimion is craftier. He'll get to the rim in more creative ways than Willie did.

Could be some excellent, and I mean excellent news coming next week. And I'm not talking about Hopkins (but that could happen on Monday, too).

Not saying it's a done deal, but keep an eye out.

Talking about Collins or something else? I believe Sallis is waiting until the spring.

Love Hopkins. Collins is next

If Hardy goes to college, and it's UK, my level of excitement to watch him will be at Wall levels.

[Joneslab]

So much has happened the last few months I completely forgot about the existence of Nolan Hickman.

[George]

I have very serious doubts that Hardy will ever play in college.

[catfaninin]

Collins will announce Saturday.
