UKYBBALL

I noticed this on Wireman's blog. This is a very unusual triple double. Congrats to a great individual and player. 23 points, 10 assists, and 10 steals http://www.allkyhoops.com/2010/01/shelby-valleys-elisha-justice-nets-rare.html Has anyone else netted a triple double this year in the state? I am assuming a 32 minute game is alot harder to do than college or pros.

Where was Highlands PG tonight? Hurt, sick or something else?

UK has not faced one team who plays mostly zone yet. I can't believe it. I thought everyone would play them zone with the speed and athletes we have. UK will struggle against the team who plays them zone for the first time. I even wish Cal would play a few possessions of zone every now and then.

Great Win!!! Keep them coming.

I hope your right!!! I think Coach Cal would love to get to the Final Four. He would probably be satisfied with this accomplishment regardless of how many wins-losses he has this year. National champs is a stretch with such a young team.

If he does already know where he is going, I would atleast take one of my five to Miami or Hawaii though to get a free paid vacation to somewhere Hot and Sunny!!! Like John Wall did.

I hope your right. It will be best for us if he takes all his visits. Something tells me he won't. Hope I am wrong!!!

He can verbally commit anytime he wants to commit. He can't sign until this time next year.

Gametime, Do you think Gilchrist will wait until the end like John Wall did or do you think he will commit early? I hope we get him badly!!!

Coaches take their players on unofficial visits all the time to colleges that are recruiting their players.

Just remember what I said. I hope I am wrong, but I have a bad feeling I am not. Like I said, it is just a bad gut feeling.

Great news it is not more games. I still don't quite understand how you can punish a kid for playing for a coach who used to be an agent. What teenager knows to ask their coach if they are or were an agent?

Tobias Harris will be committing to U of L right after his visit. So we need to forget about getting him in my opinion. This is just a bad gut feeling.

I think Cal and Co. backed off Payne as of late. I think they know they either have Leslie or Jones coming in next year.

It had to be because of the possible NCAA violations to come with this. I never thought this could happen because of my earlier post on another thread about this. This would open a whole new arena to recruiting. Everyone would start having open practices at their recruits high schools.

NAIA has a whole different set of rules. Georgetown should be in mid-season form when they play UL because they get to practice year round in the NAIA. NCAA teams have to wait until Oct. 16 to start.

Isn't this a NCAA violation to hold off campus practices? If the NCAA allows this, then it will open a whole new world to the recruiting game. Teams can go have open practices at places near their targeted recruits.

Wouldn't this be a NCAA violation. I didn't think you can have practice off campus, especially open to the public. This would open up a whole new world of recruiting.

I think Stinnett will get the job because of his local ties and connections although Happyy is probably the best candidate.

I think Calipari will wait until the draft. If Meeks goes undrafted, then he could possibly return to UK like Randolf Morris.

This is in fact the second year in a row he has cancelled his individual camps. I think this is a slap in the state of Ky's face when a state University doesn't even open the doors for its own kids. I think Pitino is telling the entire state of Ky he don't need Ky in order to be successful. If he don't like Ky people then get out is the way I look at it.

Jackson turns the ball over too much right now to be considered the best point guard in the state. He has a little of Liggins in him in that he makes a good play one possession and then turns the ball over the next possession.

Wall is playing the system. He puts off his decision and gets a free all expense paid mini-vacation to Miami via an official visit. He might as well visit Hawaii and USC on an official visit while he is taking them. I don't blame him for what he is doing. I wouldn't mind a few paid mini vacations myself.

My prediction for what it is worth. We get Wall and Henry. We lose Orton to Kansas.

Him and Stephenson both.
