April 8, 201214 yr Does anyone know if he has the same deadline as high school recruits or are collegiate transfers somehow limited to an earlier deadline/allowed to choose later?
April 8, 201214 yr They are already becomming "Transfer U" so might as well...... UK has benefitted very much from transfers in their past: Kyle Macy, Dale Brown, Derek Anderson, Mark Pope . . . just to name a few.

April 8, 201214 yr Matt Pilgram, Twany Beckam, Nate Knight, Mike Scott, Patrick Sparks, Antwon Barber, Rodney Dent
April 8, 201214 yr What's wrong with that? Just a part of college basketball whether you like it or not. Where did I say anything was wrong with it or where did I hate on it? Just stating facts, they have got multiple high level d1 transfers in the last couple years, Royce White, Cory Luscious, etc.
April 8, 201214 yr Hearing that UK, Mizzou and Xavier are out in front. All three are about even at this point...
April 8, 201214 yr Hearing that UK, Mizzou and Xavier are out in front. All three are about even at this point... Out of that group it would be hard to imagine anything other than Kentucky. Mizzou and X both have voids to fill on the inside, but so does Kentucky. When playing time is about even amongst the three I'd like to think Kentucky wins out based on all other variables.

April 8, 201214 yr Matt Pilgram, Twany Beckam, Nate Knight, Mike Scott, Patrick Sparks, Antwon Barber, Rodney DentBarber, Dent and Dale Brown were juco transfers, as I recall ... a little different situation.
April 8, 201214 yr It's a bit different than a standard recruiting situation for Oriakhi. He clearly doesn't want to have even a little bit of competition wherever he goes. Kentucky might be his best option for exposure and he knows Cal will try to coach the most out of him. That being said, he probably wants to be the center point of a team, and he really wouldn't be at Kentucky.

Point A) It's the last year for him, he probably doesn't want competition. Point B) He gets most exposure at Kentucky. Point C) He won't be the centerpoint of UK's team. When did I say anything about Mizzou or Xavier? Get over yourself...

GT when does he have to decide by?
April 8, 201214 yr But if he wants to play in the league he's gotta be able to play with top talent. GT when does he have to decide by? No he doesn't. That's a positive, but it's not a necessity. Did Kenneth Faried play with top talent? Kawhi Leonard? Those are two off the top of my head that spot start in the NBA as rookies and didn't play with top talent. Both, I believe were 1st round draft picks.

Those are two off the top of my head that spot start in the NBA as rookies and didn't play with top talent. Both, I believe were 1st round draft picks. They also weren't able to transfer to just about any school in the country for their last season in college. Different situations all together.
