This late in the year and the spring signing upon us. I would think we may want to grab a juco player or two depending on numbers. Next years class as others have mentioned should hopefully be better especially with the AAU connections coah has.

Coach was in Dallas at the Adidas Gauntlet as well as in Virginia at the Nike EYBL. Kentucky has interest in Ingram. Ingram tweeted he will not be signing on Monday.

Good sign for us.........:cool2:
Just looking for your opinion here, not trying to argue. How do you see it as a good thing? It seemed as if he was still most likely to choose us on Monday, but then delayed, and several others are taking it as a bad sign. I'd love for it to be a good thing somehow, but hadn't read it that way thus far.

It indicates to me that he wants to get to know CAJ..........:cool2:

Mo Williams supposedly is very close to Malik Newman, the #1 PG in the nation, out of Jackson, Mississippi. I've read where a poster on TiderInsider is suggesting Bama has a shot with him. If CAJ pulled that off, he'll make a very big splash with the 2015 signing class.

Also, his first offer outside of trying to bring the 3 existing commitments on board (Austin, Hall, Ingram) is 2017 prospect Jamal Johnson, Buck's son. Apparently, he made the point to do that specifically.

I hope I'm not being too nitpicky but Austin and Hall are already signees, not commitments. The only way they could back out is if UA and CAJ agreed to give them a release. Ingram is the one that he is trying to bring in. Glad to see that he quickly offered Buck's kid because he is a very important recruit for us.

I also read where CAJ is a cousin to Malik Newman. Not sure if that is first, second, third, etc. and it may not matter. But I also read where Calipari has a PG that he was able to reclassified as a 2015 signee (presumably from 2016) that he is more high on than Newman so UK may be finished with Newman. I wouldn't bet any money on that but it supposedly came from a UK fan that posted on a Bama forum.

You are. :tongue:

I lumped them in there for the very reason you brought up, but they said they were staying before he even spoke to them. But that wasn't my point anyway...

I'm sure CAJ will be able to recruit guards pretty well, but the real difference the last few years in our team compared to others is the lack of sharp shooters and, especially big brutes in the post.

Glad he's after these guards, but we desperately need the bigs!
