Duke just ended a powerful recruiting class in my opinion with Giles and Tatum already on board. Probaly need Lee and Briscoe back for experience and depth........Comment

No, would just add a little depth. Think he probably would get passed up by Willis and Gabriel if he doesn't make major strides. (And by the looks of things in the combine, he hasn't made any strides.)
We're going to badly need Willis's (and Gabriel's, if he's as advertised) outside shooting ability on next year's team, so I'm not sure how Lee fits in--again, unless he underwent a complete transformation.Comment

Last year Lee kind of knew coming in that it was his job to lose. If he comes back, i think he knows he will have to earn his way on the court if he wants to see some minutes. Lee would have 4 months to get the light to click on if he comes back. Not saying he could pull a Josh Harrellson, but he definetly needs to work on fundamentals such as free throw shooting, boxing out, playing smart defensively without fouling, and even shooting if possible. If he could add some bulk that could also serve him well.Comment

I wonder what ended up being the deciding factor in his decision. Was it to make his mother happy, or perhaps he believes that he has a better chance of winning with the tandem of Jackson, Tatum and Giles, than he would of with Fox, Monk, and Bam.Comment

From what i can read, looks like his momma was pushing him to Duke and let's be honest, Cal can't win over every momma every time....
With or without Bolden or even Lee, don't forget about Isaac Humphries at Kentucky next year. We saw a very young man who in my opinion had a few helluva games for Kentucky and will only get better plus he can shoot and score. If he gets in tip top shape which i expect he will, we don't necessarily need a 5 star Center crying he's not getting enough shots off.
We are fine, perhaps better than we think especially if both Briscoe and Lee return with Hawkins,Humphries, and Willis. If the Wynard can play and compete, UK is still going to have what TNT call the OKC Thunder's front line, KING KONGS .................

Impossible to say. Could just have a better relationship with Duke's people--coaches, players, everybody. If I had to bet, I'd say the family was pushing him there--and, objectively, it's hard to blame them. Great school, great basketball tradition...it stinks as a UK fan, but man, this is Duke we're talking about. It isn't like he chose Mississippi State or LSU.
I also think the assistant coaches going to visit him irked Cal a little. As it looks now, the "kaboom" thing and the stuff he wrote on Monday was probably a direct response to the Boldens, but I think he was a tad peeved. I don't think he wants to be branded as this guy who "all he talks about is the NBA." It looks now like he was throwing a little bit of shade.Comment

We like to talk abour our bigs but i think Fox and Monk is going to be hard to handle this year. Cal can also move Derek out of the post and put him at the 2 or 3 spot if needed so im not to much worried about our guard play or our post play. Would be wonderful if Briscoe comes back and can play his natural position in spots as well.

Only Top 20 left on the board as undecided is Jarrett Allen but look like we were not looking at him eventhough his ESPN ranking is right their with Bolden?

Moving forward I like our class even more so if Lee comes back (he's not doing well at the combine and you can never have too many bigs to clog the paint) and Briscoe.

I thought Allen committed elsewhere in the last couple of weeks.Comment
