Rebel Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 I missed midnight madness so this is the first time seeing the new look Wildcats. I like what I am seeing and got to get me a #30 Blue Kentucky shirt for this year to go with my #23 Davis and #11 Wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gametime Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Randall reminds me of an improved Royce White Chris Weber. I hate comparing players, but that was my initial reaction seeing Randle 2 years ago and I still think it fits when comparing things on the court. The skill set and power frame are very similar...

Wireman Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 James Young is really good. He and Randle are pros right now. UK is loaded Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't compare players either. Just knew when I saw Julius at the Beachball 3 years ago, I really wanted him to come to UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wireman Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Yes! A new t-shirt! You mad bro? By the way, Louisville brought in 8,000, 8,000 and 9,000 to their three scrimmages and Kentucky had 23,500 for a light show and some introductions.

Which proves that UK fans are easily amused. :lol2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Parker Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 While I don't put much stock into these types of scrimmages, I liked what I saw for the most part. The twins, Young, & Randle seem to be clearly better than everyone else. Pleasantly surprised by Willis & Hawkins. Team needs conditioning. And Alex Poythress looks really, really average.

Alex Poythress wasn't terrible but he might be about the 8th man right now and Derek Willis is going to play for this team THIS year. I have to wonder what was going on at Bullitt East because he's clearly on a different level now. After the game, Julius Randle said Willis plays like this every day in practice.

Randy Parker Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 I'll believe Willis plays this year when I see it happen, but I do acknowledge that he is far better than I ever imagined he'd be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
