So now Leslie, Ross, or Jones will pull the trigger, correct? Or maybe two of them, or all three, but at least one of them.

What's the deal with Leslie and NC State? Is he favoring them now, because I've heard for a long time that he's a lock to UK?

IF it floats your boat, so be it. Personally, I don't get excited until I see them produce when they show up. Been around long enough to never count your chickens until they hatch. ;)
Really?

Quotes from you regarding OSU next year:
I am pumped for the future.
And the great thing here...OSU is looking VERY good for years to come!! Exciting future ahead for this program!!
So, Kentucky fans shouldn't be excited, and you claim you don't get excited until you see them produce.

Yet, you are excited about what the future holds for OSU's recruits?

Good quotes dynasty.

It appears that Chandler and Teague are almost destined to play together. I could see Chandler taking his time with the process, but as long as UK stays involved, Teague is going to be a huge draw for Michael to come to Kentucky.

Also, you don't want to count chickens before they hatch, but I think most would be absolutely shocked if Quincy Miller goes anywhere but Kentucky.

Wroten is probably the wild card, but if Chandler and Miller join, you would have to wonder why he wouldn't consider rounding out the Fab 5. Then again, there are many, many other prospects we aren't even sure about yet since 2011 recruiting is still beginning.

Quotes from you:
"Turner is NOT the best player in the country"
"OSU may not make the NCAA"
"OSU will be NO better then they were last year".

Quotes are just that, quotes. They are and can be relative. Doesn't mean I am litterally sitting here "excited" or starting a freaking thread about every OSU recruit or future recruit. Just as those quotes above don't litterally mean your as stupid as you made yourself look. ;)

Now you can go do some more "searching" to try and make yourself look impressive by saying "you were right". Have fun.

BTW, here is an interesting article:
http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2010/writers/luke_winn/04/15/kentucky.recruiting/index.html

Going to be real interesting within the next few years if UK doesn't win a national title. Now that could be historic.

The difference between my quotes and yours is that mine are opinions or predictions, yours are feelings.

At year's end I didn't think Turner was the best player in the country, I still think Wall was. However, Turner was the most valuable.

After Turner went down, I did think they would struggle to get in, I was wrong. But it was a surprise to everyone how well they handled his injury.

I didn't think they would be better this year and I was wrong.

But like I said, they are all predictions, so I'm not sure what you are trying to prove?


You say that you don't get excited, which is a feeling. When you say that, and then say the contrary on here, it's a lie.

I just don't understand your dislike for everything that's not OSU, but I guess you are entitled to that.

A lie? Ok, whatever you say. What is false, or a lie, however you want to make it out to be, is you assuming my dislike about anything. Just because I don't agree, doesn't mean I dislike something or someone. So you couldn't be more wrong about your "assumption". You interpret things on how YOU think. Which btw, isn't always the "right way". This is NO different then me telling you that Sullinger won't get his 15-10 as you say he will as a true frosh. Does that mean I hate him or OSU?
And I couldn't disagree more about who is better, Turner or Wall. Maybe in the futre, Wall will be better. Currently, at this point, he isn't. I think thats quite evident in Turner amassing all of the major awards. Turner has more to his game at this point than Wall currently has.

Did Terrence Ross commit to Washington? I haven't seen anything official yet.

Appears that's close to being the case. Interesting, considering many thought him and Jones would be a package announcement to U-Dub.

It's a fake Marquis Teague account. Pretty ridiculous IMO. Bitter Louisville fans...what can you say?

Ah, I didnt really think it was real, and I knew the Cal account was fake. But the site said the Teague account was real and I didnt really look for much more info.

Its dumb if someone did this with two fake accounts....but if the Teague one had been real it wouldve been funny. I could say someone just know it was fake and giving his answer "yea" lol

Oh I definitely still think it's a funny situation, and completely plausible in today's world of social networking. But with the NCAA and internet publicity, you just never know what will happen. We've seen stories turn into negative press on almost nothing...

Looks like CJ Leslie is headed to NC State. I'm VERY surprised that he's not going to UK. State could be pretty good next season.

Azubuike,

What's the rest of UK's class going to look like? I'm assuming they still have a shot with Jones. Will they add anyone else? Also, what's the latest on Dodson?

Jones is definitely the big target.

Eloy Vargas, Marcus Thornton and Chris Hill are still possibilities.

According to this, Teague account is legit. If so, sure doesn't paint him in a very good light .

That was the exact message originally posted on the message board. It's fake. It has been hashed and re-hashed on both the Kentucky and Louisville Rivals' sites. They have since removed all mention of it and are blacklisting those bringing it up. You basically linked a blog with a screen shot of the exact message board comment that the whole thing started with.

I can't believe we are even debating the validity of that message from Calipari.

well, no one is debating that. The INITIAL debate was if the response was really Teague, which it wasnt.

I just think its funny, cause IF IT WAS TRUE, I could so see a kid like Teague just responding with:

"yea"

lol

Interesting article on the reason Knight never signed a letter of intent for UK. Looks as though he found a loophole to protect himself in case Cal bolts. Doubtful it happens...but you never know with Cal/Wes and Lebron connection.

I'm very very surprised that we haven't heard Calipari's name mentioned for some NBA jobs, especially New Jersey. It's no secret that Capilari has a relationship with Lebron and who knows if that's something that Lebron values enough to follow him, but Calipari did have some success in the NBA and I think it's just a matter of time before he's back in the pros. If you are New Jersey what coach are you going to get that has more appeal and charisma than Calipari?

Aren't they moving to Brooklyn, as well? Much more attractive place to play nowadays than New Jersey.
