@Ripamaru @bigbluekodakk Probably price tag issue. I’m getting the feeling that unless it’s a bargain-basement deal Kentucky is not gonna pay for anyone except for a couple of really elite players. The Keegan Brown effect!

@bigbluekodakk Blackwell is odd. I don't get it. They should definitely be kicking the tires at least.

Byrd is committing to Providence today. Blackwell told KSR yesterday that he has not heard from Kentucky. Will add him back if that changes.

@KyleTuckerCBB It’s not an oof to lose anyone if they’re asking for much more than they are worth

Fair. I know the word is he asked for a bag. I get not giving it to him. Kentucky doesn’t need to do the overpaying thing again. But it’s still an oof to lose a shooter when that’s literally priority one for the roster — or 1A/1B with point guard.

@WildcatUKx Gotta be willing to open the wallet for RW or Zoom.

@BigBlueDylan @TravisBranham_ @CatsBy90edits @BleedBNetwork @BleedBlueCasey @tsm_portal @TrutherCbb @MattSakR2NG Better start getting some visits set up. Commitments will start next week.

NEW: Colorado Transfer PG Isaiah Johnson has received early interest from Kentucky, a source tells me. First by @TravisBranham_ • 16.9p • 2.9r • 3.0a • 49/38/82 Played more off-ball at CU last season. Arkansas, UCLA, Kansas + more interested. #BBN #KentuckyBasketball

@TristanUda This is the kind of guy you open the checkbook for. Getting him and either Rob or Zoom would be money well sent and a great start!

NEW: Paulius Muruaskas met with Kentucky on Wednesday. Originally scheduled for Thursday, the Wildcats met with Muruaskas via Zoom on Wednesday and are trying to get him on campus for a visit. A top five player in the portal. 🔗kyinsider.com/kentucky-baske…

@Reds @PNCBank Let me guess, if you have major league baseball network and live 1000 miles from Cincinnati, you can watch it. If you’re any closer than that, it’s blacked out.

Hey, how ‘bout some Reds baseball tonight? Powered by @PNCBank

@RowlandRIVALS I love how he says “grade” instead of class. HS — ya gotta love it.

4-star WR Zyon Robinson is fresh off a trip to UK and the coaching staff's energy stood out. They're talking about putting youth on the field. “They don’t go based off what grade you’re in. Whoever is the best player will play no matter what grade.” on3.com/sites/kentucky…

@bigmikenwillie @CatSzn2 @BRamseyKSR Depends on who we get, but he took a big leap from yr 1 to yr 2. Most likely will continue to develop. And he’s pretty damn good.

@CatSzn2 @BRamseyKSR I don't see any scenario where CC should be starting at sg.

Here is another potential "needle-mover" for Kentucky. Donnie Freeman has as much upside as anyone in the transfer portal. The 6'9" forward averaged 16.5 points & 7.2 rebounds per game as a sophomore at Syracuse. Would be an EXCELLENT front court addition. Spend on stars!!!

@chancyk3315 @BigBlueDylan @GoodmanHoops I think Zoom is easily good enough to be pg 1. Wright may he a little better, but the difference probably isn’t huge.

@StoopsBelly @BigBlueDylan @GoodmanHoops I think with Diallo, UK still needs a PG1 or a stud backup. Go all in on Wright, I wanted him last year.

BYU PG Rob Wright III has entered the transfer portal, per @GoodmanHoops Kentucky expected to be involved. • 18.1p • 3.5r • 4.6a • 2.2to • 47/41/82 #BBN #KentuckyBasketball

@BRamseyKSR Historically, the NCAA does no favors for Kentucky.

@StoopsBelly I don’t see any real reason why he wouldn’t be.

Kentucky was busy navigating the opening of the transfer portal today, but also made time to connect with G League star Dink Pate. The ‘Cats continue to pursue the talented 6’8” scoring guard.

@KySportsRadio How do you watch the Reds? They’re never on TV.

Pagan is the shakiest “Closer” in Baseball He was ok last year but I think Reds will regret the money they resigned him for this offseason

@KimHall40270952 @KSRonX @DrewFranklinKSR Probably true.

@StoopsBelly @KSRonX @DrewFranklinKSR He would be owed 75% of his contract. I do not believe that he would be fired since he is a former player, co-captain of a national championship team. Very doubtful and delusional to think that.

Zoom Diallo is one of the top point guards on Kentucky's board so far. Learn more about the talented Washington guard, who has two years of eligibility remaining. on3.com/teams/kentucky…

@KimHall40270952 @KSRonX @DrewFranklinKSR Fans believe, perhaps correctly, that Pope will be fired if the Cats stink again next season.

@KSRonX @DrewFranklinKSR I have a question. I have been seeing posts from fans and some media that states that Mark Pope has a do or die year next year. Isn’t his contract now thru the 2030 season after he made the sweet 16 last year? I’m just trying to understand the thought process if the fans

@RackAttack1995 @KySportsRadio 20 ppg scorer from Utah

@KySportsRadio Who is Terrence brown

Terrence Brown posted this picture of his FaceTime with Pope

@anthony_hensley @BleedBlueCasey Kansas fans are saying the same thing lol

@BleedBlueCasey He's not coming. I'm over it. Move on, I'm tired of the games. He's just milking the attention

Tyran Stokes on Instagram: “I’d rather be respected than loved!”

@orjmartin @BleedBlueCasey What the hell are you talking about? This quote doesn’t say anything about fans bothering him

@BleedBlueCasey No wonder why players don’t come, some of our fans won’t leave them alone, you people need to back off these players!!!

@davooo67 @KySportsRadio @DraftExpress We have not lost 8 to the portal

@KySportsRadio @DraftExpress Arkansas lost like 2 to the portal we have lost 8 sad asf pope can’t keep shit pathetic

Andrija Jelavic into the portal according to @DraftExpress

@RowlandRIVALS @PolacheckKSR I like his reported skill set. I don’t want anyone at the 2, 3, or 4 that shoots under 35% from deep. I always envisioned Pope’s ideal offense being filled with shooters.

With @PolacheckKSR's report linking UK to Devin Vanterpool it's time to take a closer look at the FAU guard. The high-flyer was a 35% volume deep shooter, has drought-busting get a bucket ability, and racks up steals + blocks. How he'd fit: on3.com/sites/kentucky…
