Kyle Tucker‏ @KyleTucker_SEC 53s54 seconds agoOne very smart person told me this week he believes Bamba decision a "coin flip" now between UK and Texas.

If that's the case then let's just flip the coin then and get it over with!

Kevin Knox's father says he will announce this weekend.

My money is on UNC or F State....I'm pulling for F State if that's the case!

Yes. Knox will announce Saturday.

The info that I got assumed Knox would announce Wednesday or Thursday this week. That's why they said Bamba would announce Thursday or Friday. He wanted to wait for Knox.

I would say Bamba will not be too long after Knox. Probably next week.

I actually though Texas had a better chance of getting him if Allen remained. Never know what these young men are thinking or what they are getting told.

No way this is true. Jarrett Allen could be the best center in college next year. If he comes back to Texas there is absolutely zero chance Bamba chooses them.

I thought Bamba wanted to play the 4 and Allen is a 5. Bamba also said Allen's decision to stay would not affect his decision but since Allen hired an agent it is a moot point.

“The thing about Kentucky is, I was able to visit and that was great and I loved the campus and I loved being with the guys that they have now,” he added. “Only a couple of those guys will be around next year, so I didn’t really get to meet with many of the guys that I’d be playing with next year."

I wonder which two he's talking about?

Sacha and Wenyen, I'd assume. Or he's just using "a couple" as an expression, and not an accurate figure.

Bamba is a true center.

I haven't seen him say he wants to play the 4...but that ain't happening. He's pretty skilled but he isn't playing power forward for anybody in college.

I suspect it's the latter.

With his length, he wouldn't consider playing any position other than the 5. either in college or the NBA. He will be a star pivot man in either.

I was referring to this article where it states he is a PF

Being reported that Knox has chosen Kentucky. If true ... and no reason to think it is not ... that is great news. but, i hope it does not hurt I chances with Cam Johnson.
