@MeManBoy0 She also probably post Caitlyn Clark’s not the face of wnba shortly after 😂😂

Sounds good to me lady

@BigBlueDylan Why do all the articles post this as a two year deal. What binds a 17 year old to stay two years ?

Serbian SF Nikola Kusturica had already committed to UCLA Staff prior to the FIBA 17U World Cup beginning on June 27th, a source tells me. Was also waiting for UCLA Admissions before officially announcing, but a deal had been agreed to for a couple weeks now, I’m told. Kentucky was never gaining momentum. #BBN #KentuckyBasketball

@NormPeterson14 @jeffborzello He’ll get paid then leave next year. A 17 year old not bound to a “multi year deal”. He be back on the market next year.

@jeffborzello Yeah, you can a lottery pick on UCLA's roster but, at the end of the day, Mick Cronin will still be an ass.

BREAKING: Serbian forward Nikola Kusturica has reached a multi-year agreement to play for UCLA, sources told ESPN, giving the Bruins arguably the best European prospect in his age group and an early contender for the No. 1 pick in the 2028 NBA draft. Just turned 17 in April.

@TorresOnUK Still fail to discuss the kids age. A 17 year old (minor) signing a nil deal. At best it’s a 1 year guarantee because he could void the deal once he hits 18. If Kentucky misses . It’s simply because he’s more valuable year 2 than 1 with the current roster.

On Saturday reports surfaced that European star Nikola Kusturica committed to UCLA for crazy money. Then, those reports were refuted with some saying UK is still in it. So what's fact and what's fiction? Torres discusses 👇👇 📺youtube.com/watch?v=rsf86y…

@KyleTuckerCBB 2026 team will be sweet 16 or better. Top 5 recruiting class income. Jamal Crawford? Pope knew he needed the cool factor to join. Have to give him credit for changing what needed changed.

Mark Pope has loudly answered the can’t-close-the-big-one criticism by landing a top-two transfer and top-10 high school recruit in the span of a week now. Massive.

@MeManBoy0 Definitely don’t hurt that his blood cousin Marcus Spears Jr could join as well. He ranked 1-3. Pope could start cooking year 3. Strong coaching staff, strong in court team, followed. By his best recruiting class.

Mark Pope just landed the wing BBN has been begging for... Ryan Hampton is a Cat. Consensus top 10 in the 2027 class, No. 1 ranked small forward...... Pope beat out Will Wade and LSU plus SMU, Nebraska and NC State to get it done, but Hampton could go anywhere he chooses. He's elite. Quick disclaimer before the breakdown... this is built mostly off highlight tape, game film and what others around him have said, not true first hand scouting. Take it for what it is. 6'6", 190 out of Rockwall TX, younger brother of RJ Hampton, so that pedigree is real. On the EYBL circuit he led every U16 player in the country in scoring at 26.8 a night... 6.6 boards, 61% from the floor, and the number that matters most for Pope's system, 54.5% from three. Jermaine O'Neal comped the shot making to Paul Pierce... a tough shot taker who is also a tough shot maker. Three level scorer with positional size who can guard up. Here is a piece I really like... he has spent his prep career on loaded rosters. At Dynamic Prep he played next to multiple high major signees and still produced, which means he knows how to fit his game in and around other talent rather than needing the ball every possession. That matters a ton for where he is going. Here's the addition. Drop this in after the "loaded rosters" paragraph and before the Pope fit section... keeps the flow and lands the honesty before the upside. Now where he has to grow, and I am saying this off film and the comments of people closer to him than me... he is a wiry 190 right now and has to add real strength to finish through contact and hold up defensively at this level. The shot selection is the double edge of that tough shot maker label... in Pope's read and react stuff he has to take the clean look and the right drive, not fall in love with the degree of difficulty. The playmaking is still a work in progress by his own words, he is a scorer first who is learning to make the simple read. And Coach O'Neal flat out called him raw, still scratching the surface. None of that scares me though... that is a development to do list, not a red flag, and it is exactly what this program is built to fix. Now the fit. Pope runs zoom actions... five out, motion heavy, DHO and off ball screening with everybody expected to shoot, pass and cut. A 6'6" wing draining threes over 50% who can also put it on the deck is the exact archetype that offense eats with... he spaces it, he handles it, he scores it in transition where Pope wants to play fast. A kid who already knows how to play within a stacked lineup is a clean plug into that system. Hampton said he wanted a coach who would get on him every day and not sugarcoat it. I think this staff will do that for him.

@vaughtsviews @cutler1300 instagram.com/reel/DZLW0swxx… I’m sorry but I love it 🤣

@MeManBoy0 It’s pretty tough to listen to lol. His opening statement is one of the cheesiest I’ve heard. “Good to be back good to be back”

I don’t dislike Aaron Torres…. But man, I can’t listen to his fake radio voice.

@MeManBoy0 this is example what you talked about last night. He had Kentucky sub 40 prior.

@JonRothstein Please explain how you have Kentucky outside 40 and now 16 ? I think you underrated Kentucky prior to Milan. I’d say 25-30 more realistic without him. 15-20 with m but not 24 spots with one player.

Kentucky is now up to 16th in the ROTHSTEIN 45 with the addition of Iowa State transfer Milan Momcilovic.

@MeManBoy0 What about rebounding? Outside Moreno - with Milan at 4 Kam 3 - they averaged less 3 rebounds a game each.

@MeManBoy0 Do you see Milan at 4 or 3? What about McBride ? Who’s your starting 5

@MeManBoy0 x.com/evanmiya/statu… Evan says Uk top 10’roster now

@cutler1300 @Cody_Fueger Take your running shoes off Alan

@Cody_Fueger did UK just get MM??????????

@vaughtsviews They just have 10 walks Larry 🤣. Half wvu points off walks.

Are you kidding. Another walk and now it is 9-7. Error, walk, single, walk. Still no outs and West Virginia has its hammer at plate with bases loaded. Cats need a MIRACLE

@vaughtsviews Yea. Wvu helped the cats out a lot both games with errors

@jaredlyon1985 But at least West Virginia helped Cats get back in the game with those 2 errors and unearned runs

Cleaver throws 23 pitches, three walks, 2 hit batters. 2-0 West Virginia, bases loaded with 1 out in first. Six baserunners with no hits. Already a pitching change

@vaughtsviews I don’t watch a lot baseball until playoffs but how does a college level pitcher walk/hit 4 in a row?

And another walk ... bases loaded and West Virginia has not put a ball in play

@MeManBoy0 Someone posted Matt’s paywall forum post that Louisville offer is within a million now. I’m not sure ksr really have sources ? All day been nothing but fake gurus posting. Twitter is a 💩 show

KSR doing evil shit sending out a "breaking news" email 10 minutes ago about baseball......

@Reghanson It was blown out of proportion. Pitino needs no help landing a player.

You don’t owe anyone a reason why you do anything DA! Keep mentoring those young guys. Thats what your job is. To be honest with them when they ask advice.
