    Orton and Bledsoe should stay another year. Wall, Cousins, and Patterson have no business being in the NCAA anymore.

    c/s. i wanna believe that Orton & Bledsoe are just "Testing the waters" and may actually return to UK. but yeah Wall's prolly the #1 pick and the other 2 are prolly top 15 picks,

    Come on dude, no one is forcing them. lol Then why did the NBA create the 19 year old or one year of college ball rule, lets not play dumb here. They didn't create that ? for mfs to go over seas, or guys to sit out till they turn 19. Wtf do you learn in the one year of college that's gonna make you that much better in the NBA, not a ? damn thing. Plus the NBA knows most kids don't want to go overseas for that one year. The only reason why Stern created that rule is to help out the NCAA game, help owners eveluate talent,etc.

    just use the nfl rule...you must be outta high school for at least 3 yrs before you can enter the draft..simply as that... that way players have 3 yrs to fix the holes in there game and it gives the scouts a bigger body of work to look at, at it will save nba teams money by drafting less players that are likey to be nba bust

    It was sad to see it happen but I think a lot of guys made their decision after they saw Desean Butler get hurt. I know they were thinking why stick around if we can leave now. I remember a while back it was a thread on here talking about how Sam Bradford should've left after his Heisman trophy season.

    Damn, I didn't expect all 5 of them to declare. Especially not bledsoe and orton. Bledsoe needs a jumpshot if he's going to survive in the nba.

    And I think the 2 year rule is ? , hell I thought the 1 year rule was ? . But it's a business and the nba is trying to limit the bust rate.

    As much as I hate Kentucky and especcially Calipari. To me the guy is as crooked as it gets. However, hes gonna be stacked next year with another round of 1 and dones. He also can goto any recuit and say "I sent half my team to the draft last year"

    UK commit and 5 star center Enes Kanter broke the Nike Hoop Summit scoring record today with 34 points, along with 13 rebounds in only 24 minutes of play. Kanter made news by turning down a multi-million dollar offer from a professional Turkish club to maintain his amateur status and sign with the Cats.




    We might get Brandon Knight and Josh Selby, the #1 and #4 ranked players of their class according to Rivals. I told yall, the Cats will be fine

    Thats a big deal man. Not as athletic as Wall, but is a solid Solid Playmaker. Doubt Selby will come not, But Calapari is a freaking Jedi when it comes to getting this kids to commit.

    The bigger deal though is getting Gilchrist to commit this early for 2011. Dude is going to be a freaking beast, Calapari does it again.

    yea, idk if selby comes now after seeing how bledsoe had to take a backseat to wall last year, but im still hopeful. im still thinking we can get terrance jones and/or cj leslie. now that everybody left, i want us to go fab 5 style.

    im gonna have to do some research on gilchrist. ive heard good things and i know he's next years top recruit but i havent seen any footage on him

    I would bet money that CJ Leslie will sign with Kentucky. He and John Wall are good friends and went to the same high school together.He was smart to decommit from NC State
