January 29, 200719 yr At the begining of the year, I thought Morris would certainly be gone at the end of the year. I thought with his consistent 20ppg/10rpg, he would cash out in free agency at the end of the year. Now, I think he'll be back for his senior season, unless he blows up the rest of the season and pulls 30/15 several times or really ups his stats. There will be many big men in the draft (i.e Oden, Durant, Wright, Hansborough; assuming they all go) and without stellar numbers, he probably won't get a contract good enough that will get him out of Lexington. What are your thoughts on him next season? If he does return, and UK gets more front-line, then UK can be a contender next season. They're currently after Patterson, Moses (on & off), Pettigrew, and Katuka, a big man from Florida. Thoughts?
January 29, 200719 yr He will be back,no doubt about it. He has a lot to work on and he knows it! There are Million$ of reasons not to come back. How are you so sure?
January 29, 200719 yr Author There are Million$ of reasons not to come back. How are you so sure? He won't get millions of dollars if he can't prove that he deserves it. In the SEC play, he sure hasn't.
January 29, 200719 yr He won't get millions of dollars if he can't prove that he deserves it. In the SEC play, he sure hasn't. I agree, but to say, "He will be back, no doubt about it," is more than a stretch.

January 29, 200719 yr The 07 draft class is going to be stacked so he better pick up his game in SEC play. I say Morris will be back unless he goes to Europe to play professionally.....
January 29, 200719 yr Author The 07 draft class is going to be stacked so he better pick up his game in SEC play. I say Morris will be back unless he goes to Europe to play professionally..... I don't see him going to Europe. Unless he just blows up during this season, there will be no one that can find any use for him in the NBA, or an offer that would persuade him away from UK. I think if Kentucky gets some frontline help in recruiting (i.e Patterson, Moses, Katuka, Pettigrew), he might consider returning because this could be a powerhouse team.
January 29, 200719 yr I think so, its kinda hard to know though becuase he will be a free agent and not a draft pick, so if someone offers, it will be hard to pass up...
January 29, 200719 yr Author I think so, its kinda hard to know though becuase he will be a free agent and not a draft pick, so if someone offers, it will be hard to pass up... I think he is still here, unless the offer is outstanding. His family doesn't have financial problems, like say Azubuike's did, and if he doesn't step up his play, I think he stays around and tries to improve for a chance after next season. Now, if we was capable of being drafted, I think you might see him gone.
