June 19, 20197 yr If Blackshear joins UK, Cal is going to be facing one of his most challenging roster/playing time management teams. As I said a month ago, it could really lead to platoon 2.0. If it wasn't for the Alex Poythress injury, they probably stay platoon in 2015. Which they were blowing people out in 2015 to start that season. I could see a platoon of: 1st team Pg Hagans Sg Maxey Sf Whitley Pf Blackshear C Montgomery 2nd team Pg Quickley Sg Juzang Sf Brooks Pf Sestina C Richards Or flip flop Quickley and Maxey to add a more explosive playmaker to the 2nd platoon.
June 20, 20197 yr There was a lot of buzz yesterday about KB committing to the Cats before he left town from his visit but the latest is he’s going to make a decision next week between UK and UT. So all of yesterday’s excitement could be for naught. UK fans may see him as an opponent dressed in orange next season.
June 20, 20197 yr Now KSR is saying he didn’t commit. KSR and their helium. Did they say he committed?
June 20, 20197 yr KSR never said Blackshear was commited. I read it every day and all I ever saw was that the staff was hoping for a commit before he left town.
June 20, 20197 yr They might have said on their radio show( I don't Listen) but I saw nothing saying he was committed on their site.
June 20, 20197 yr Did they say he committed? Guess I have to be fair they didn’t say he committed. Just pumped their “sources” and what they were hearing. I got baited for clicks.
June 22, 20197 yr Author Blackshear won't take any more visits and an announcement could come as early as Sunday.
June 22, 20197 yr If I were Blackshear, this would be an easy decision - Tennessee. Agreed! If he goes to Tennesee he is playing 30 plus minutes a game. If he comes to UK he is probably 20 to 25 minutes a game.
June 22, 20197 yr If he goes to Tennessee, then his number one concern is not winning the championship.
June 22, 20197 yr If he goes to Tennessee, then his number one concern is not winning the championship. Winning a national championship is not the number one concern for most players with NBA aspirations. Those players who are no doubters to be drafted can afford to prioritze an NCAA championship. I am talking about those college players who aren't so sure about getting to the NBA but feel they have a shot at it - like Blackshear.
June 22, 20197 yr Author The thing that Blackshear needs to realize is Cal and UK have more players to turn pro than any other team in the nation.
