Triple_Threat Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 This years UK team is evidence why it's important to have "4-year" guys on the roster. No chemistry, selfishness, etc. Why was last years group so good? Darius Miller...he would have put Harrow and Goodwin in their places this year while making Poythress play hard ALL of the time. With that said, in my opinion, Dominique Hawkins for Madison Central should be offered a scholarship to play for UK. Not sure where he is being recruited but he is consistently putting up big numbers against the top competition in the state and nation. I know they're a little different in position but their roles could be similar on a team next year that will tout unbelievable talent but need a "SOLID" guy in the program. What are your thoughts?

...ThenSome Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Not sure why this isn't already a done deal??? In years past they have let some solid kids from in-state go (i.e. Lofton, Hickey, etc). Its time that he starts picking up some solid in-state recruits that can be 3-4 year guys, and Darius wasn't even his recruit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gametime Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Why was last years group so good? Darius Miller.. Um, no. The group last year was so good because of Davis and MKG. Don't get it twisted... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PurplePride92 Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 What GT said. Didn't MKG give up his starting spot to Darius for the SEC Championship game and then UK lost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spindoc Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 I love Dominique. With that said, he has half the body that Darius had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndOneDad Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 I don't think KY currently recruits KY kids and if Darius Miller were a Senior this year he wouldn't get a look out of Lexington. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bugatti Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 I don't think KY currently recruits KY kids and if Darius Miller were a Senior this year he wouldn't get a look out of Lexington. How can they not recruit Kentucky kids when one has already signed to play at UK next season in an already loaded class? I guess they should tell Marcus Lee to hit the door to free up a spot for Hawkins? I am willing to bet Miller would have been recruited to play for Cal.

2 Humped Camel Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Wasn't the knock on Darius that he never turned into the leader everyone hoped? He was a nice 4 year player but he was never the man to take charge and calm things down nor did he ever appear to want that role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PurplePride92 Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 I like Darius and all Ky kids but I think his value to last season's team is overstated. Teague was more important than Darius IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please pardon my ignorance about Madison Central & Mr. Hawkins. First, how big is Hawkins? Second, what type of national schedule has Madison Central played this season?

Rez Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Please pardon my ignorance about Madison Central & Mr. Hawkins. First, how big is Hawkins? Second, what type of national schedule has Madison Central played this season? Madison Central has played games against the top 3 teams in ky in Bullitt East (twice), Trinity and Ballard. They also played Travis from Ft Bend, Tx which is where the Harrisons play. He had 29 in that game in a 7 pt loss. I'm not sure of his height. I'd guess 6'2" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
