It may not be set in stone (even though it pretty much is) but they know they're not NBA-ready, they knew before the SEC Tourney they were coming back IMO. The missing link is gonna be Nerlens Noel, if in fact he bolts for the NBA. I also think Harrow (PG) will transfer, him and Cal never really saw eye-to-eye thru out the season, at least Cal could tolerate Archie Goodwin but Harrow has to go IMO.

Julius Randle makes his decision at 12pm on EspnU. If he chooses UK then UK will have possibly the greatest incoming class in the history of College Basketball.

I agree with Mr. Buddy that Harrow needs to go. Does not fit with Coach Cal's still and doesn't seem to be buying in. If he comes back he won't see the floor because the PG Harrison is legit and way better than him.  I would be impressed if a big time player like Wiggins comes to Kentucky with a stacked team like this...

Coming in:
Harrison #1 PG
Harrison #1 SG
Parker #1 PF
Johnson #1 C
Young #3 SF
Lee PF #9 PF

Coming back:
Poythress SF/PF 11 ppg 6 rpg
Goodwin SG 14 ppg 4 rpg 2 apg
Cauley C 8 ppg 6 rpg 2 bpg

[/quote] throw in the 3pt specialist Kyle Wiltjer returning also.


Also on some sites they're talking bout an undefeated season for the Cats, IMO it aint gonna happen, Florida is stacked, Vandy always beats 2 teams in SEC play that they're not supposed to beat and Ole Miss will be good also. I will say this though: UK will be pre-season Top 3.

Completely agree with the Top 3 ranking for pre season. Florida is going to be really good next year, as always. I can see them tripping up once or twice in non conference play just because of the dept of new faces (but that might not matter at all). Surprised to see Wiltjer coming back. Thought he would take his chance on the draft with the dept of bigs coming in.

[/quote] Wiltjer was never a Big, he played that position cause of the lack of Bigs UK had.

Man, if Wiggins go to UK that would be a crazy lineup. Just wonder if Coach Cal can create enough offensive opportunities to make everybody happy.
[/quote]no one would get fatigued thats for sure, rotation would be insane.

Good move on his part. I just don't see him getting any playing time behind Andrew Harrison. Crazy travel though. First went to NC State, transferred to Kentucky and sat out a year, disappointing year at UK, and now has to sit another year before playing at Georgia St (unless he gets a pass because of his dad).

I wonder how that will affect Wiggins?? Can't see him going to a stacked team like this. I kind of want him to go to his parents alma mater at Florida State to see him play against Jabari Parker at Duke a couple of times next year. The bad thing about that is FSU is not all that great.

[/quote]funny you mention that, word on the street is FSU is his #1 choice. I hope Coach Cal can change his mind.
