Sisk has now gone "into details":

Sisk has now gone "into details":

Can't blame the guy; they didn't even take him out for a cookie, sheesh.

 

[Buddy’s Bandit]

"Not a whiff" by the staff? How? Lol they took a swing, didn't they? And if they didn't make contact...

Sounds like a whiff to me.

They didn’t offer cookies. The Deacon did…….but the real deal buster was Weigels Milk to go with the cookie. GAME ! SET! MATCH !!

You know, it's the little things in life that make the difference!

 

[TrippieRedd]

Rod just followed an international guy. Aleksander Gavalyugov.

Wonder if we pursue.

Followed Rod back.

Pleaseeeeee be something to this lol

 

[TheMookieMonster]

What if he goes to BYU lol?

 

[Chaz-Vol]

What if he goes to BYU lol?

Board meltdown.

 

[HypeVol2020]

What if he goes to BYU lol?

Then $$ won out. It happens. I think we land him though. Would be a wild decision to choose BYU after seeing Dalton Knecht last season lol

 

[bleedingTNorange]

What if he goes to BYU lol?

Would rather that be the case than UK, but if what Trilly said is true (lowest $$$ at BYU) then that is hard to imagine. Then again though AP has said we were the lowest $$$ so who knows.

 

[knoxvol52]

Lol if Lanier goes to BYU, which Lanier most likely doesn't. Then move on water under the bridge.

 

[CNeagleVolFan]

I haven’t trusted Trilly this whole time, but now he’s even saying it’s Tennessee. He says an announcement as early as this weekend.

 

[GUNTERSVOL]

Board meltdown.

CLARIFICATION- a possible overreaction by a subset of agenda driven emotionally challenged folks who like to see themselves type.

If you see a response that interests you, search this thread by their handle to quantify their objectivity and rationality before you join them in the sad place.

 

[CNeagleVolFan]

I think there are a lot of individuals on this board that owe BTO and SF apologies. Especially if we get Lanier this weekend like they said we would all along. The hostility showed towards them before a decision was even made was ridiculous. They come in here with really good information and most of the time it’s accurate. When they miss it’s not because they didn’t know something, but because something changed. Just like during this entire process! In the end though everyone else is eating crow that called them out and bad mouthed them. I for one thank BTO and SF for their information, and their large amount of patience that they all must possess for putting up with some of y’all’s crap.

This is what I referenced above. Now Trilly is saying Tennessee lol. Hopeful that he’s right on this.

Can Kentucky fans not handle any negative news? This guy is consoling them like they’re toddlers. Sometimes players go to other schools and that’s okay. You’ll get plenty of other one and done 5 star players to lead you to another first round tournament exit.

 

[cwbytruckers]

What if he goes to BYU lol?

Doubt he wants to do a two year mission. I assume they still do that there.

 

[Chaz-Vol]

Still need to close with Lanier, but since Barnes got screwed with Yuri Collins he's really tackled portal effectively. They identify players they want really early and generally know who will and won't fit their culture. I know retirement is probably going to come sometime in next few years but I'm going to enjoy portal Barnes era. It's good mix of developing young talent and bringing in transfers to fit specific needs.

 

[RudyVol]

It’s always something out of the other team’s control and never just because the player likes another school better.

Have to save their fragile egos

Do you really think those people will be adult enough to a) apologize and b) learn from their mistake?

Spoiler alert….no and no.

But you’re exactly right.

Most of those guys are well known negavols at best, or trolls at worst. I wouldn’t sweat their opinions.

No idea if this is sarcasm but BYU doesn’t require it, that’s a requirement for young men in the Mormon church. Allegedly 98% of the students at BYU are Mormons, however.

The problem is these individuals listen to lots of "insiders". They will take notes on what SF and BTO post. Then listen to TB and the guy that talks like he has a mouth full of marbles and take notes. Then go on Twitter chase Trilly Donovan down take notes. Then compare then decide what to bitch about, it's science.

 

[GBO18]

It’s message board. Never apologize and it’s never that serious. Good grief.

 

[CAVPUT]

You guys are setting yourselves up to be massively disappointed when Lanier doesn't come. Don't do this to yourselves. Haven't we learned by now??
