How much does the Illinois fan base despise Kentucky right now? Get Cockburn and they may not be able to handle it. Stat of the Day. With Mintz back it’s the first time since 2001 (Prince) 20 years that Ky has their leading scorer returning.

I believe Randolph Morris is actually the last leading scorer to return in 2006.

Yes it was corrected on KSR today after they said it. Still has been a long time since our leading scorer returned.

With Mintz returning he may be the first KY player ever to have 2 Senior Days.

If we can only land one not sure which one I would take the proven College stud Cockburn or the unanimous #1 recruit and maybe the next A.D.

 

 

Kofi Cockburn withdrawals his name from the NBA Draft.  How soon will he announce that he is transferring to UK?

He did say it would be quick.  I know some say he may not be as good of a fit as Duren but it seems like the most likely outcome at this point.  Guess we will see. 

Hopefully he can make a speedy recovery.

I had just saw that on ksr myself a couple of minutes before you posted.

Looks Like KSR and other sites was a bit off on CJ. Is a broken leg really considered minor?

 

I'm glad there was no broken leg.

I’d love to add Cockburn to this roster. He’s a proven commodity. 

However, if I were Cockburn, I’d probably look elsewhere. Cal doesn’t have much of a track record with true, old school back to the basket centers.

I can’t see Cockburn thriving in a system that asks you to switch on screens and guard multiple positions. I just don’t think he has the skill set.

He’s an incredible college athlete. I’d love to have him. I don’t think he has a place in the system Cal runs though.

Was off by a week. 

I think Cockburn will wind up staying put.

Sounds that way.  

 

Duren or done with the roster for UK it sounds like.
