I know he’s a big name but how is he in matters of predicting where recruits wind up?

Recently he had Garcia to UNC but idk if he knew that first hand or was just going off buzz
He also liked a tweet disputing that he told an Illini teammate that he was returning.
I don’t love this....but how many Illini did Garcia follow before committing to UNC?
No, I'm not harping on you. You're good. The tweet itself was worded weird.
Come on guys lol. Do you think he’d really build a 4 day announcement only to telegraph it on Wednesday morning by a Twitter follow? This is all calculated. You don’t win a fight by landing one punch, and this won’t be the last jab shown before the haymaker is delivered on Friday.

I feel like you've been dying to use this one for some time. Nice
Could be as simple as wanting to keep track of OA and a program he's come to have connections with over the past few weeks. Whether he transfers to UK or not, he undoubtedly has relationships there.
Exactly, I'm not on Twitter because if I'm going to learn a new language it will be Spanish or Chinese.
All of a sudden the Kentucky forums are freaking out.

That they might not get him?
Legit question. I don’t know what Kofis going to do and not trying to predict based on the theoretical answer to this question, but I’m genuinely curious.
NIL $$ aside and skill development aside, does Kofi have a better chance at being an All American and National Player of the year at Illinois or Kentucky?
I say Illinois bc he will be the face of the program (yes even with Belo here), and we did a great job highlighting and marketing Ayo. Kofi would get the same treatment this season.
I don’t think he becomes the “face” of any other top program. And that’s not just because of the players surrounding him. Part of its continuity and building a legacy at one program etc.

This is a good sign IMO..Goodman doesn't make wild statements. Plus he hates on ILL consistently.
Yep all of the replies are with unhappy gifs from UK fans.
Kentucky 247 guy reporting Kof is returning...
The comments are delicious.
