Green guy Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Scott County's Trent Gilbert has been offered a preferred walk-on spot by Coach Pitino. Excellent! I really feel good about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plato Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 The thing about Pitino is that the guys who he gives those spots to really do have a chance to earn clock. The kid from CAL and the kid before him that played at Frankfort High both had some opportunities. He doesn't use them just for practice dummies that the walk-ons at UK. I'm glad to hear that Trent has another option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2-3-Zone Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Awesome, love the kids game. He can shoot the lights out. I would love to him at UofL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Getslow Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Lots of walk-ons have gone on to become serious contributors at Louisville. If he practices hard and learns the defense, he'll earn minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northstar85 Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 What are his other offers? I saw him at state and he can fill it up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
First Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 ^^I'd be interested to know other offers as well. I'm not necessarily a Louisville fan but I do agree with what's been said. Pitino does a tremendous job of developing guards over their careers. That could prove to be an attractive option for this young man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plato Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Before the Sweet 16, TN Tech was his only D1 offer. I've been kind of out of the loop since then. Lots of D2 and NAIA offers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wireman Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 I'm not sure why anyone would accept a walk-on offer over a scholarship offer but congrats to Trent Gilbert! He's a scoring machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
