I'd imagine this would mean WWW could no longer talk to high school players.

It will also lead to Calipari to the NBA rumors every year.

We can only hope. He (along with many others) is what is wrong with High School basketball. and it is infiltrating to the college game as a result.

Uh...actually, it means he can no longer talk to college players, or even be around them. Not sure about how this translates to high school players. But he may have a tough time recruiting for Cal now.

WWW has pretty much been non-existent since Cal left Memphis.

So does this mean that instead of WWW steering players towards Cal, Cal will be steering players towards WWW?

Any involvement he had with them came well before Cal came to UK. WWW had Wall/Cal together well before Kentucky. After hearing everything about WWW when Cal got the job, you have quietly not heard anything about him. He has been at a few games but outside of that, he hasn't had any involvement. I wouldn't be surprised if that was a stipulation of UK hiring Cal.

If Brandon Knight commits to Kentucky, we're going to hear WWW's name linked to Cal and Kentucky. I have no clue if there is validity, but there's a decent amount of Internet buzz that WWW has Knight's ear. And we all know that if it is on the Internet, it must be true.

I don't know what there is (or not to) believe. He hasn't been around the program like he was at Memphis. Why would you say otherwise?

Yeah, I dont know if he is involved still (no one does). But he certainly isnt visibly and making it public knowledge like at Memphis. At Memphis he was just open about the involvement and was always around players and getting them into big events/concerts/etc. That hasnt been the case at UK.

Like I said, I have no idea if that is the case or not. But either way, it isnt being flaunted like before.

Just because he isn't visible, doesn't mean he isn't doing this thing behind the scenes. I am sure with Cal's issue at Memphis, UK told him to cool it down.
But I'd be money(no pun intended) he is doing this thing behind the scenes.
