@SweetTalkingT@JoeTipton@BornBlue859@On3@KentuckyMBB@BarstoolUK@KSRonX All good. I would say he elevated the brand and the brand elevated him. the 50/50 is probably a fair way to put it. He isn't the Brand alone though. Still an amazing recruiter though with a title under his belt which elevates him further for recruits.
@SweetTalkingT@JoeTipton@BornBlue859@On3@KentuckyMBB@BarstoolUK@KSRonX I think it was a small mix. Cal was sought after as the coach because he is an absolute monster when it comes to recruiting. Kentucky only elevated what he was amazing at. Literally may be the best pure recruiter in college basketball history. Kentucky is still the brand 1/2
The whole offseason thing generated from people including myself thinking the brand brought the 5 stars and not CAL. We were wrong, I’m saying it’s time to realize Kentucky wins basketball games, not 5 stars, and to lock the fuck in with what we got. This ship can’t sink. Never will.
@SweetTalkingT@JoeTipton@BornBlue859@On3@KentuckyMBB@BarstoolUK@KSRonX Let's stop with the "whole offseason" thing. It really hasn't been as bad as people are acting. Got Zoom and Wilkins which were both priorities with Wright throwing a small wrinkle. Lost Freeman, and lost Stokes. Ndiaye is still an upgrade over AJ the depth pieces are better
@CSOonX My god move past this. Stop with this CAL shit. Every true Kentucky fan loved CAL and what he done for us. He gave us the canvas and it’s time to start fucking painting. Let it go
@SweetTalkingT@GrandonBarrison Stokes will go for 35 but in terms of who’s better positionally PG- Kentucky, SG, Kentucky, SF-Kansas, PF-Kansas, C- Kentucky, Bench-Kentucky. Diallo and Wilkins have a massive height and length advantage on Kansas guards and their center (Reeves) isn’t good for P4 standards.
