What’s the holdup with Juke?

Both Tanner and Harris are in the catbirds seat. Both have eyes on the NBA draft and have college programs wanting to throw crazy money at them. Right now, they have all the leverage and they have the calendar working for them as well. It's my understanding that the only deadline they're bound by is in late May(22?) for the draft. They'll be in no hurry I suspect. The question is how long does Barnes wait? Doubt Tanner is in the discussion contrary to what Basilly-o keeps spouting between bites. They might feel like they can afford to get some front court help now and hold a spot for Harris? I kinda think this is what Barnes will do. He's going to have players/options no matter what Harris does, but if they get those players AND Harris falls our way in a month, it's got to be the strongest and deepest roster I can recall seeing in Knoxville.....at least on paper. Gonna say it again...it's all going to come down to how this roster comes together/gels. Keep seeing the hype about Kentucky turning into a pumpkin and if it can happen to them, it can happen to anyone.
Kentucky is on the path to Indianaville. They aren't the Kentucky of old.

Some of us don't live on the internet. Apparently, I've missed information that we have our PG. My apologies for inconveniencing you and causing you reply.
You post a lot. I’m surprised you weren’t aware 6’3 Hill signed and his comments about coming in to take over pg and excited with what Barnes has done with pgs.

I took a couple days off. I remember the Hill announcement but didn't read about him - my bad. Never underestimate Volnation's ability to eat their own!

Basilio has been dead on so far with this portal cycle.

Read that UNC offered Harris quite a bit more money yesterday. Unsure on truth, but I suspect they will end up buying Juke before it's said and done. Do we have any idea when Ament should get sufficient news back from his draft stock?
