    He'll have to hurry, if he plans on playing the first semester, won't he? School will be starting pretty soon (Aug. 26).

      I'm going to assume he had already applied to UK for a "just in case" instance. I just don't know how the athletic scholarship part of it works. I'm assuming 3 weeks is plenty of time to get it worked out.

        Could be, I really don't have any idea.

            Does anyone know much about the guy. Hearing reports that he would be a practice player and backup in case of injury. Told he was slow footed like Kyle Wiltjer.

              Probably. I saw scout had him as a 4 star. Lol we're so spoiled that 4 star players are dismissed as not talented enough.

                The YouTube clip I saw he was money with 15 feet... Cal is not going to take a stiff.

                  Lot of people on Twitter saying they believe this is a sign that Cal is not confident Skal will be eligible.

                  The people I have asked have said they aren't really sure what will happen with Skal.

                    That's a pretty half-glass-empty approach.

                      Looks like a solid player, to me. Position rebounder. I can see some Jorts in his game.

                      I also worry about Skal, but there's no reason to look a gift horse in the mouth. This kid looks like he could develop into a solid contributor. Welcome,big man!

                        Cal stated yesterday he will be eligible on game 1. With Kanter he did the let's wait and see. Not sure what to make of this situation.

                          That makes me feel better, usually Cal doesn't make those statements without being pretty confident, like you just said, with Kanter he never led on that he knew for sure he would be eligible.

                          Anyways, I'm glad to have this kid, never hurts to have another big body to push Skal around with.

                            Do we actually "have" him at this point? I've seen nothing that confirms his official commitment.

                              I don't think Cal can offically comment on him until he is enrolled in school.
