    Re: UK Basketball DY9ASTY Edition

    I think one thing Smith's return should do is steal the spotlight away from Duke/UNC as UK and U of L should clearly be the Top 2 teams with or without Wiggins.
    The difference being UK may have a loss or two early (a Wiggins signing may change this part though) with tough games against MSU and UNC.
    Should make for a fun season !

    Go to the Rupp Rafters board on UK's Rivals site. There's about 50 Wiggins threads a day there (each one as unreliable as the next). As Wiggins has said a few times, unless it comes out of his mouth, it's a lie. Until he actually announces, I don't think anyone knows anything. Not even the so-called "insiders".

    And there's no timetable as to when he might announce.

    I really think he's going to come to UK.

    If he doesn't choose UK, hopefully it's Florida State where he won't be a threat to UK winning it all.

    Honest question how many of the "dynasty" recruits UK recruited will see seniors day? ps battle tested Ville players await your high school stars
    2006 Redzone mock Draftee's- 1(st) Daniel Bard(redsox), 1(st sup)( Jordan Walden (Angels), 2(nd) rd.- Zach Britton(Orioles), 3(rd) Blair Erickson(Cardinals), 3(rd) Tim Norton( Yankees),(cuz its a Tim Hortons thing

    Pain heals. Chicks dig scars. Glory... lasts forever.

    You don't even know that UK is UK, as you called them KU last week.

    You suck as a troll, stick to whatever it is you do. You are still insignificant, and no hand wrapped title is going tonchange that. Wait, I think the refs just dicked Wichita State over again.

    It's not our fault Pitino can't recruit NBA-caliber players, or that those players don't want to play for him.

    I understand the parents connection, but....

    You can go to Kentucky, where you will be surrounded by talent that will make yourself look so much better, especially if you are winning. You can still be THE MAN at Kentucky, especially if you are as good as advertised. You'll be a division favorite and likely a fast track to a Final Four.

    OR

    You can go to Florida State where you will be THE MAN. Your presence alone might net a top 10 ranking, but you will be double and triple teamed every night because you don't have the supporting cast. You'll get plenty of shot opportunities but most of them will be contested. Duke and UNC will have better teams overall which would mean a likely third place finish.

    Either way, if Wiggins wants to come to Lexington, great. If not, we've already got the best class ever coming in.

    With teams like NC State and Maryland and then of course Syracuse and Pitt, I am not so sure Wiggins would gaurantee a 3rd place finish.
    As you said, at UK, he could be a main ingredient with excellent supplimentary parts or FSU and be a one man show more than likely which doesnt gaurantee wins. Let's not even think about Carolina blue !

    Good news is that at UNC he could earn his Doctorate in Afro American studies in one year.

    Always nice to see Pitino take care of those "health insurance" costs...

    A real shame he's not showing off more prominently his awesome "L's Up" tattoo.

    If you ever needed to build a case towards Kentucky fans' insufferability, that post would probably be exhibit A.
