I saw a recent mock with cauley in the top 10, was pretty surprised. If he's getting projections like that I'd say he's gone.

Pretty amazing. He was seen as a project, a 2-3 year college player, but he's really dedicated himself to the weight room, has a tremendous upside.

I give WCS a lot of credit, but it's also the Cal effect. I'm convinced if I suited up for Cal my name would appear on some mock drafts.

If Kentucky has so many players leaving for the NBA, why is the team so bad?

Does anyone think they'll even make it to the tournament this year?

I disagree with the others. The draft is way down this year, after the top 3 or 4 its a major drop. Next years draft will be really strong, when Archie Goodwin and Poythress are picked relatively high, you know its weak. If Archie and Poythress stay another year, they wont go anywhere near where they would in this draft.

Will they make the tourny? I say yes, probably. Most writers say they can lose 2 more and still make it. They have Fla and Mizzou at home, they win those they're in.

It's not an excuse. Kentucky has none for two highly touted recruits to play full retard and contribute nothing. When your "starting" point guard (Harrow) plays without scoring, rebounding, or dishing out an assist but fouls out, that's uncoachability.

I've said it all year: some of the players are playing for the name on the back of the jersey rather than the front. When part of your team doesn't "buy in", you have big problems. Goodwin and Harrow just seem to be doing their own thing. And to be honest, until they start doing the right thing, I'd much rather see them sitting on the bench and losing.
