STOKES TO KENTUCKY??

[Catsrock]

Kentucky fans might feel better about losing Tyran Stokes after this update

Absolutely. A kid about to be very wealthy telling the world his preference is to be at KU but if they’re not the highest bidder he’ll go elsewhere is right in line with his rep.

I'm not sure this kids talents outweigh his ego and problems that may come along with him, can easily see him not having things go his way and collecting his money and shutting it down to prepare for the NBA draft.

I'm not saying he's not talented, but he's no Lebron walking through the door like he thinks he is.

Does anyone know if Stokes family still lives in Louisville and if they do will this help UK to get Stokes ?

Probably the only thing that is going to help us is if we outbid KU. The Jayhawks are his first choice.

And now Calipari and Arkansas have got into the conversation.

KSR stating Jason Hart was the lead guy on Stokes. Now he is heading to SMU. Wonder if that was the last bit of anything that UKhad to try and get the guy here. I think it was a very long shot. Not expecting anything from any top Seniors left in high school to come to UK. We will fill the roster with either Portal, DLeague or european player. Just cannot see us making large strides in high school this year.

I still say Hart hadn't proven he could recruit anyone had he? It seems all everyone said was that Jason Crowe Jr. was a lock for UK, mostly because of Hart, and then he chose Mizzou.

I'm not saying Hart won't effect Stokes decision, but it sure seems he is just going to go to whoever opens up there checkbook the most.
