With UK having 5 leave early for the Draft, does that mean Coach Cal goes heavy after Luke now?
Luke's updated list of schools no longer includes UK, so it would appear that one or the other has waned on interest. Good news for us obviously if that holds up.

i think only 3 of the 5 actually enter the draft......i think bledsoe and orton are only flirting with the possibility to see how high they might go and i believe they will be back next season.

If we were to get Cothron, do you feel like he would start as a freshmen?
i hope so, just about anything is better than knox! i'm sorry to talk about our players but i never understood why we signed this kid? saw him play 3 times his senior year and never impressed me at all. you would have thought with his height in HS he would have been dominant. he played against a good friend of mine in the final four his senior year and my friend is only 6'5 (and that's stretching it) and he completely dominated knox. so yeah i hope this keep is really legit enough to start.

Yea I think that Cothron would come in and start too. I haven't seen him play in person since his freshmen year when we played against him while he was ay Butler but to be as highly rated as he is then he has to be good. If we were to get Cothron and Ratliffe which would start along side JaMychal Green? or Would Green go to the bench?

i'm certain unless something major happend that jamychal would stay a starter, and i'm not sure who would start with him? haven't seen the ratliffe kid play so i don't know really?

Saw JK play in Columbia and was very impressed with his aggressiveness. He's not highly skilled, but toward the end of the year he -- and most of his teammates -- were playing very hard.

I read where Jason Carter will be visiting us next weekend. He is an interesting prospect. They had him classified as a 2011 player, who would be going to prep school, but he made his grades this year and will sign somewhere in 2010. He visited Ole Miss this weekend and we're next weekend and then he'll decide between the two. He was ranked the #107 overall prospect in Rivals 2011 rankings, so he should be a good player. He's listed as 6'8 220 PF/C. Hopefully with Ratliffe committing to Missouri then we can instead close with Cothron and Carter. In the long run signing Carter might end up being better for us since he will be coming in a freshmen instead of as a junior, like Ricardo would have been.

How in the world did Cothron end up at Auburn? I saw last night that he committed to them. Did Grant stop recruiting him due to grades or something, or did Barbee just beat him out?

Yeah Rivals reported like a month ago that we had backed off cause of grades. He may qualify but we don't need to take the risk and plus Jason Carter's recruitment opening up at around that same point may have played a part. Seems Grant didn't think Knox was actually going to transfer. Now I guess its Marcus Thornton or hang on to the scholarship.
