Ohhhh...

Thanks for this. I thought it was tomorrow too...

Not trying to act negative...I have all the belief that this is about 99% done...but if directly because of this wait, and him intentionally setting the date this late, leads us to miss on him...I truly can't imagine what this board will be like, including myself...

Cliff Alexander 2.0...?

Anyways...(since it's pretty much a done deal at the moment) Sunday will be fun...

Just have a feeling this '26 class will be real good...as well as the '25 class (Jasper 🙏)...

The OA effect...it's REAL!

This paying players with no form of cap is already out of control and it will get much worse. Then they will add revenue sharing and disparity between program's will become even more glaring. With Coleman, KSU had extra funds materialize and Kang went all in on Coleman and a roster of 13. With Onyenso in the middle, I expect Coleman will light it up from outside and dish for many assists.
I have little doubt Coleman will have a huge year, however playing with an entirely new team may result in leading the league for passes into the stands. Took two seasons for him to develop a report and it showed. May not be a big deal if he keeps his head on straight though.

Sadly is right. I hope this waiting game is not an ominous sign.

Four Kentucky coaches. Maybe "they" should remove the blue blood status accorded Kentucky. Of course, that may happen in the next few years considering their coaching search failure this year and that they eventually had to hire Pope to save some face. Not expecting much from Pope. And Illinois got Riley when Kentucky (and their delusional fans) thought he was a lock to Lexington. At least that is my understanding.

From the article: "Kelvin Sampson is too [sic] scummy college coaches what Muhammad Ali was to boxing: the greatest." Just nitpicking but why would he not be number one then? Also, doesn't help that the writer of the article can't spell "to" correctly.

Also, I heard a long time ago that Jim Valvano was crooked, too.
