Think he meant for Mitchell

I’m stoned so he needs to do a better job.

 

[allvolrecruiting]

Lol that would be crazy, FSU for Wallace?

Clicked the wrong forum lol

 

[VolFreakJosh]

Probably a fall back option if Wallace decides to go elsewhere.

From Monday Night Chat
Tennessee still feel confident they’re in it with Wallace? Don’t feel like momentum is moving to Kentucky after getting home from Knoxville?

Tennessee feels like they're in it for Wallace.

Eh, I can’t tell if that language is purposely tame to indicate that we are “in it” but very much not the leader or favorite. I really can’t tell anything about this recruitment, it’s wild. Hope he is a Vol, but I’m thinking it’s Kentucky.

Yeah, there isn't much to take from that quote other than Tennessee isn't conceding, at least to VQ's knowledge.

Nick Smith committed to Arkansas. Would be awesome to see Wallace commit to UT and UK miss out on these two prospects.

UK didn't miss out on Smith, they stopped recruiting him because they are likely getting 2 better guards

It all rests on Wallace, if they don’t get him then they missed on Smith.

High stakes indeed

 

[allen phillips]

But if they get out in front too far and it doesn't work out, they have a lot of pride to swallow. By the appearance of their arrogance, some humility would do them good.

I do not think humility would ever come up. I am not sure there are 10 UK fans basketball fans who know the meaning of the word

On Nick Smith…

This is an odd list. I hope he goes to the Arkansas schools.

Sorry for the misspelled words.

Your wish is his command. He committed to Arkansas two days ago.

Like a lot of others, I think Wallace ends up with UK. Since I don't spend a lot of time on recruiting, I'm curious who the regulars on this board would feel good about as a consolation prize for Wallace if he doesn't choose the good guys?

Personally would be happy w Jackson. I feel pretty good about the depth of our backcourt the next couple years. So he can come in and develop and should end up being a multi-year contributor. And I will always be happy w an instate kid, and one we pluck out of Memphis

 

[Stoked]

He should be announcing his decision soon correct?

 

[bleedingTNorange]

He should be announcing his commitment to Kentucky soon correct?

Tried to tell you all.


“That was it!
After that I called Coach Lucas first and we FaceTimed Coach (John) Calipari and they were just really happy!
Coach Cal was actually surprised, but he was just happy the whole time we were on the phone.”

Stoops is 2-7 vs Tennessee and Rick Barnes is 8-6 against Kensucky. Doesn’t matter who y’all get…

How many final fours/elite 8s have those wins against kentucky generated?

 

[AngryButchJones]

How many final fours/elite 8s have those wins against kentucky generated?

That's the even more embarrassing part for you, you haven't even lost to truly elite UT teams most of the time. UK has lost to a lot of average UT teams the last 6 years lol (excluding 18 and 19, of course)

 

[Jimmy Football]

How many final fours/elite 8s have those wins against kentucky generated?

So true. Barnes will never have the kind of postseason success we’re looking for until he starts consistently beating the elite teams in this conference.

Like you said, regular-season wins against middling conference opponents just isn’t going to cut it.

 

[cardvolfan]

Final Fours and Elite Eights are nice, but no one wants to finish 2 thru 8. Not many remember when you finish in the Top 4, but they do remember when you when it all. How many national titles in the 2000’s?
