The only reason I am upset about losing Lucas is because it will likely mean we will not get the bigger need, Patterson.

Good luck to Jai!

Would have liked to have had Lucas but Patterson is more important. We are very heavy at guard right now. And nobody is showing Legion any love? Lucas was mainly Patterson bait if you ask me. I just hope that now he isn't truely "Patterson bait."

So when Patterson doesn't sign, what will the excuse be?

Surely not the, "We didn't need him." :lol:

I was thinking more of the "It's Tubby's Fault!", but that one works too.:lol:

I don't think anyone said that about Lucas.

Now we will here when he's the best point guard in a couple of years, about how we didn't get him. Just like Lofton and the rest of that crew.

This guy will be a 4 year guy and he is a true point guard, which UK does not have.

That makes no sense whatsoever! Completely different situation. If you've kept up with UK basketball you'd remember that Tubby didn't heavily recruit Lofton and didn't offer a scholarship. Lucas and Patterson along with Hagema(sp?) and Sanchez were heavily recruited by UK and they just chose a different school!

The only complaint i have is that Jai as well as Patrick have known for probably a month or so where they are going to college. That is why some people could care less where they go. Give me a break if you actually thought that they were using this time to decide their futures!!!

...yeah but Tubby was always in everyone's top 3. See Tyler Hansbrough, Thadeus Young, Brandon Wright, etc....

 

Tubby was in everyone's top 3 ten years in, not 2 months...

I think way too many people are discounting Jasper as a PG. I feel as though he has a chance to be one of the best in the country before he graduates. If UK becomes more of a running, pressure type team I expect Jasper to thrive. He sees the court extremely well and is a very good passer.........all he lacks is just a little confidence in his shot.
