April 20, 200719 yr Fire coach G !! He can't recruit, he missed out on a Ky. Mr. Basketball!! What is this guy doing?? :sssh: :lol: The bashing should start soon, after all, he hasn't brought in single recruit, he hasn't won a single game yet. Why did we hire this guy?
April 20, 200719 yr He's 6'5??? Isn't Jasper like 6'5, 6'6...Although he often does not possess the skills, Jasper is a PG, where as Pettigrew is a SF/PF type.
April 20, 200719 yr How would a 6'5 post player help UK with their needs for this coming season? With the hold overs on UK's team from last season, I am sure Pettigrew would blend in well, just not certain it would have been a great addition. With that being said, best of luck to the E-town product wherever he decides. UK's needs to add post players, inside presence first.
April 20, 200719 yr I believe Pettigrew came to terms with the fact he was not a high priority on UK's radar. The title of this thread could just as easily have been, "UK eliminates Pettigrew."
April 20, 200719 yr My thoughts on the whole Pettigrew situation are this...If UK really wanted Pettigrew, they would have already offered him...
April 20, 200719 yr Billy G asked Pettigrew to wait 2 weeks, but SP was having no part of it. Can't say I blame the kid. BCG was basically just waiting to see how the recruiting class shook out before committing to a scholly for SP. I agree with Deuce, if BCG really saw something in him, he would have been offered already.
April 20, 200719 yr It just boils down to the fact we have no use for a 6-5 PF. Great post. To the point and 100 percent correct as well.
April 20, 200719 yr ^ I don't think that he will be playing a 4 in college. Maybe true, but what purpose does it serve to give a scholly to a kid who would have to hone his skills at a new position? Why not use the scholly for a kid who is much higher rated and naturally a '3'?
April 20, 200719 yr Maybe true, but what purpose does it serve to give a scholly to a kid who would have to hone his skills at a new position? Why not use the scholly for a kid who is much higher rated and naturally a '3'? Like who? He won the three point shooting contest the other night....that already show he has way better range than Jasper.
April 20, 200719 yr Winning a 3-point contest doesn't exactly make Pettigrew a wing player. Correct me if I'm wrong, but there isn't anybody guarding you in a 3-point contest.
April 20, 200719 yr Winning a 3-point contest doesn't exactly make Pettigrew a wing player. Correct me if I'm wrong, but there isn't anybody guarding you in a 3-point contest. You are correct. Whole different story shooting those in the game with a hand in your face. Pettigrew got a large chunk of his offense down low, that is not going to happen at a big time school like UK. It is probably the best thing for him not to go to UK because he does not fill any of the holes in the lineup that UK has, depth inside and size.
April 21, 200719 yr I Don't care how tall he is, If he can consistently hit a 15 foot jumper then sign hin up.
