Blue Cain to UT????

[TheMookieMonster]

I think we can do much better. He’s a fine player. If he was a depth piece, sure, bring him in. But I don’t think he would be fine taking a more limited role here given he was a featured player at Georgia. Don’t think we need to pursue him and I would be shocked if the staff went that route.

A scorer off the bench ala Gainey would be most welcome.

He doesn’t seem to be the guy who would embrace that role. Definitely not worth big money.

 

[BernardKingGOAT]

Heard from a player on Georgia's bball team that Blue Cain is very possibly considering returning to Ktown to play for the Vols next season.

A. Is he good enough to be a Vol?
B. Do we want him?

great player

Great player? Trolling

 

[walkenvol]

4 falls down more times a game than we miss free throws

 

[Larkin]

His father named him after Duke...

Ugh, even worse!

 

[WaywardVol]

He is a good shooter and plays with the ball well and plays good defense. Good pick up but we will need a point guard,he can't do that !

They are looking to take around 4 transfers.

 

[StarRaider]

I thought he wanted to go to KY? His first name is Blue.
I'm on the fence, he didn't light us on fire when we played UGA

pops went to duke but the skool is the rule (named him after duke).

if he can play D

In The Deacon We Trust

 

[MinisterofDef#92]

Meh

 

[Skooter]

Wouldn’t be on my list tbh.

He always looked uncoordinated whenever I watched him, but is also scrappy and can shoot the 3. I just don't see him at a starter for us wheras he could start for low tier programs and get paid better by them.

But if we could bring him in as a backup and he really wants to come here I don't see why not

Ive said it before, but I’m not sure we want anyone affiliated with the dumpster fire that is UGA BB.

 

[adam.vol]

That’s the vibe I get.

He would definitely be a shooter that we could use given what we are losing with JG and Abrams. Realistically if Barnes is returning next season, he has to go 2/2 in the portal getting shooters.

Cain and Catchings would thrive under Barnes’s system.

 

[VOLINVONORE]

I would take hm over 3-4 players we have on our team now and I would like to see him here. He shoots threes well and is a good rebounder. I wondered why we didn't push to get him.

Now I’d take Catchings in a heartbeat!!

 

[AthensVol2007]

Yes, we absolutely should want him. This is a no brainer.

He’s a SG who shot 30% from 3 and is a career 32% shooter, hardly call that a no brainer.

Did you actually look at his 3pt stats?

I know why we didn't push to get him. We were recruiting better players.

What really sucks is missing out on Cade Tyson. Dude went to UNC and did nothing and then lit it up this season at Minny.

 

[EasternVol]

great player

Not great. I wouldn't see him starting for us.

 

[NighthawkVol]

I’d say the feeling from the coaching staff is mutual? Not trying to bash the kid too much but CRB could surely bring in another player better than Blue Cain.

He’s not much of a defensive player. Which tells me that Barnes probably isn’t going after him.
