April 12, 201214 yr GT doesn't like this kid's game. It sounds like he may be close to committing to Kentucky. Can Cal get him to reach his full potential? If he does, what player would you compare him to?
April 12, 201214 yr I have faith in Cal's judgement. If he believes Bennett is good enough to deserve a spot, I have complete trust that he'll get him to play to the highest level he's capable of. Cal is the guy that turned Liggins and Jorts into NBA players after all.
April 12, 201214 yr He's got talent for sure, but his game is very incomplete. No back to the basket game, and struggles putting it on the floor in the half court. If he goes to UK Cal will figure out a way to use him to maximize his talent. I don't question that part at all...
April 12, 201214 yr GT, what is it about this kid's game that you don't particularly like? I've only been able to watch his highlights and one game that was televised a couple of weeks ago I believe, so I don't have much of a feel for him. Edit: GT answered right as I posted.

I've only been able to watch his highlights and one game that was televised a couple of weeks ago I believe, so I don't have much of a feel for him. See above. I'm just not big on guys who aren't a 3 or a 4 and rely on athleticism alone. I had the same issues with Chane Behanan, and he had a solid year at UL...
April 12, 201214 yr How well does he shoot from the perimeter? Who would you compare him to? If open and set he can knock it down. Not effective coming off screens with or without the ball and really struggles to connect off the bounce. Basically a spot up shooter from the perimeter...
April 12, 201214 yr Where you reading that he's close to committing to UK? CatsPause is reporting it...
April 12, 201214 yr CatsPause is reporting it... Just saw that. Is he going to announce on TV like the others today?
April 12, 201214 yr If he is nearing a decision could be possible for him to announce at the Jordan Brand game this weekend. IMO its either him or Oriahki, I couldn't see Cal taking both.
April 12, 201214 yr Let's just assume that Bennett does commit. Where does he fit in with UK? Obviously Noel, Harrow are in the lineup.

My guess is he would perfer Bennett. I could be way off on this but he doesn't look like a one and done type to me.
