Re: 2009 UK Basketball Thread - Part III

One all-star game means less than nothing.

Re: 2009 UK Basketball Thread - Part III

Should mention according to ZagsBlog that Bill Self was recruiting Lance Stephenson over the weekend. I kinda have to think that he is looking at Stephenson as a backup option if the Henry brothers come to Kentucky.

I'm actually becoming more and more optimistic that Xavier Henry could be coming to Lexington.

Re: 2009 UK Basketball Thread - Part III

We should know more by this weekend. The Henry's are coming to Lexington for a visit then and Wall is playing in the Jordan Classic I believe. Wouldn't surprise me if both players commit somewhere by then.

I thought Dennis to UK was already a done deal? Or was your question related to something else?

I understand. Sounds like Wall and Henry are near sure-things right now too but I wouldn't hold my breath if I were a UK fan.

Nothing is a sure thing when it comes to recruiting. I figure you two would have learned that by now.

I have. That was the jist of my comment. I don't believe much of anything until they hold a press conference with a formal announcement. Even then it doesn't mean much until they suit up for practice in the fall.

Everything in this thread at this point of the season is more or less idle chatter as far as I'm concerned. As a diehard Kentucky fan, it's fun to speculate on who might be playing for the big blue in the fall but that's about as far as I'll go until they sign their LOI.

I just forgot about Dennis.

As far as Orton... I really think he'll end up at Kansas.

I hear ya. It's fun to speculate IMO.

Really? Orton to Kansas? Seems like a lot of guys are ultimately deciding between UK and KU.

Except that Tucker will be the starting pg and Henry is better than Meeks. Those are absolutes.
