March 15, 201313 yr Goodwins effort has increased throughout the year; Poythress is just hanging out.
March 15, 201313 yr Don't mention food. PP92 will crash the party & eat everything. If he comes he has to wear something UK.....:lol2: On the food...I cook enough to feed all of Winchester.
March 15, 201313 yr Yep :thumb: Actually wouldn't Hood be able to transfer and play right-a-way via the Graduate school rule assuming he graduates this Spring? Doesn't it have to be for a graduate program that's not offered @ UK? Does he really want to leave? IDK.
March 15, 201313 yr Still not enough. Won't have any adult beverages....that is where I couldn't supply enough:lol2:.....
March 15, 201313 yr Doesn't it have to be for a graduate program that's not offered @ UK? Does he really want to leave? IDK. Yes.
March 16, 201313 yr Poythress is projected as a lottery pick still, hard to see him sticking around. D League by December...
March 16, 201313 yr Author D League by December... Any more that's true of a lot of first-round picks.
March 16, 201313 yr Any more that's true of a lot of first-round picks. Because either the guys leaving for the NBA are stupid or the teams drafting them are building assets like the Rockets. No way Terrance jones was a dleague guy, the Rockets just had 10 power forwards on their roster. However I think there is a movement to use the d-league as it was intended, a minor league system. Used to just be a bunch of cast offs.

Used to just be a bunch of cast offs. I think you can look at guys like T Jones, Lamb, Miller, etc. as examples for these guys especially Jones. No way no how is Poythress anywhere as good as Jones was, so if Jones isn't sniffing NBA minutes and has been in the D-League for much of the year, whats it say about Poythress' chances? Same for guys like Perry Jones III, Moultrie, Wroten, etc. IMO all of those were light years ahead of Poythress and Goodwin, so if they weren't ready then those two certainly are not. Just because you can get drafted doesn't make it the best decision to leave.
March 16, 201313 yr Harrow has been my biggest disappointment this season with a wire finish by Poythress and Wiltjer for second most. I understand where Harrow is coming from with those postgame comments, but he had to know what he was signing up for. Poythress, goodness where do I start? I guess the simple statement, "looks like Tarzan, plays like Jane" will suffice. Lastly Wiltjer. IMO he regressed this year. Last year was awesome when he came off the bench and put up 3 pointers like he was Reggie Miller. But this year when he had to play a leading role he crumbled, no confidence and no defense. Going forward for next year I hope Harrow grows up, starts to act like a UK basketball player, or just leave quietly and find greener pastures somewhere because he wont have a lot of opportunities next year for PT. I believe if Poythress stays another year, works hard with Cal, something will click because quite frankly it has to. Wiltjer will hopefully be able to accept a supporting role next year and do exactly what he did last year, come off the bench and give UK some quality points. Overall if Noel is the only one to leave for the NBA, then look out. This team won 21 games with months to prepare for a basketball season. Next year with the talent coming in and supposedly the kids that are staying its almost unfair to give Cal another year with this team.
March 16, 201313 yr I wouldn't mind WCS and Poythress staying, but Goodwin can go. don't know if I could take another year of his horrible play. Couldn't agree more.

March 17, 201313 yr I wouldn't be surprised with 2 or even 3 transfers. I'll share my thoughts after the season ends.
