It is mostly centered around the senior walk-ons who work their butts off for 4 years. We don’t have a lot of scholarship Seniors because they go to the NBA to persue their dream jobs. With IU dipping it’s toe into the one and done pool, with Romeo and possibly Keion, you will have the same issues. That is the nature of the beast if you want the best players. Check on Dukes senior day in three years. It happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the unfortunate thing because Archie is going nowhere. The fans that said that have no clue and only hurt the program Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice board, nice format and good info. Welcome to the board. We welcome people from other schools,( i guess UK would be a school), just be respectful and you will be fine.

Reasons for IU: -become the hometown hero/legend at IU. UK fans have repeatedly spelled his name wrong. Would he even be appreciated? -immediate playing time -play with your best friend -Brooks will be a focal point. The offense will be designed for him. This will help showcase him for NBA scouts. -Big Ten is the toughest conference in the nation by a mile. Better competition. -Kentucky already has a higher rated SF in his class, would Brooks even start? -Multiple current and former UK players have been named in the FBI Investigation. That’s a GIANT red flag. One player you might be able to explain away... multiple players suggests the problem is systemic. What does that mean for Kentucky next year when the NCAA investigates? Could Calipari get fired if they found similar evidence to what they found with Will Wade? Does Keion really want to be in that program when the sh’t hits the fan? -father knows Schilling. Schilling has helped develop a lot of high profile/NBA players. Miller has improved Langford defensively. -Calipari has 6 five star recruits currently on the roster. According to multiple websites, the consensus is only one is considered a top 15 pick next year. The rest are ranked lowered than Langford. I thought Calipari was the one-and-done “develop NBA players” guy? Is he actually developing players or just trying to collect as many five stars as he can? ...and my personal favorite: -Calipari’s development of five star players nationally ranked 15th or lower is a DISASTER. This is important because Keion is ranked 23rd nationally according to Crystal Ball. Since 2010, Calipari has had 11 five star commitments with a national ranking of 15th or lower. Only one (Goodwin) has started and been a one-and-done. Two more have started both years they were there (Lamb, Washington). However FOUR have transferred and FOUR more have spent a significant part of their UK career coming off the bench. At UK, if you’re a five star recruit ranked between 15-30 (Keion is 23)... you’re FOUR TIMES more likely to transfer than be a one-and-done and FOUR TIMES more likely to come off the bench than be a one and done. Why would he ever think UK would be a better choice than IU? Love this, but unfortunately you're missing Devin Booker as a success for him. https://247sports.com/Player/Devin-Booker-20574/high-school-32914/ He's the only one I ever feel that Cal can take some credit for improving his draft status. Drafted 13th vs. ranked 22nd. That being said, Booker's dad played in the NBA after a solid NCAA career, so I'm sure his dad had quite a bit more impact on Devin's career than Cal did.

I sure like the sound of that.....If Keion knows where is going and it isn't IU, then why would Archie and Keion spend that much time together? (especially the office/gym) If he truly is still undecided, then that makes sense too. Does Archie walk away from that confident or does he try one more contact or sneak peak before Friday?

bryan200088 Posted March 14, 2019 Report Share Posted March 14, 2019 Latest info coming out doesn't sound too positive at all....I really expected things to go a little different today but right now doesn't look like the Archie meeting did anything to change the leaning.

Yes he went pro, but he did come off the bench. Not ideal if you’re Keion. Gotcha. That year was the nearly undefeated (pUKed a little typing that) squad that had the platoon system. Ironically, I think that squad/platoon/MP is one of the two reasons for the slip in Cal's recruiting. I would think some 5* recruits chose other schools after seeing KAT start all 39 games but average 21.1 mins/game and seeing Booker not start any games and average 21.5 mins. I'd like to think it is one of the reasons KBJ will choose IU as well. The other reason for the slip in Cal's recruiting is Coach K getting deeper in the mud with him and Nike splitting their $ between the two (not evenly).

IndySportsPartizan Posted March 14, 2019 Report Share Posted March 14, 2019 2 Rivals guys switched there picks from IU to UK yesterday/today... Corey Evens and David Sisk. Sisk said the following... Yesterday Too close to call to change it. Today UK barely, in my opinion, but it’s very close. I’m not taking wagers on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
