Class of 2015 C/PF Thomas Bryant (NY) Verballed to Indiana

[Jasoncuse]

The downfall of Kentucky will be monumental and amazing. Schadenfreude through the roof.

I look forward to that day and the day Calipari is forced to squirm and admit wrongdoing like the squid he is.

$$$$$$$

Eh, Who cares. I'm just talking about the ends, not the means.

If we were in their shoes we would be loving the recruiting classes every year.

Eventually someone will spill the beans. It may take years but eventually somebody will be disgruntled or angry or jealous and will leak the details about how Cal is getting all these top 10 recruits.

 

[Deano]

There will be a documentary on UK and benifits some time in the next 5 years imo.

Be nice if PayPalCal gets caught this time or does his Houdini act first.

and people would say the same thing as others if Cal was our coach.

If you think about it rationally, where is he going to sign. Indiana is a mess, coach is on the ropes and they've over signed 3 kids. Kentucky is recruiting about 7 big men rated ahead of Bryant. Missouri is coming off a 9-23 season. His mom likes the Cuse. Family and friends will be able to see him play. His high school teammate is on the team. We haven't been in touch because we didn't have any openings until recently. At the end of the day, I just can't see another option- can you??

I have felt this for months! The only thing that keeps TB from committing to SU is the NCAA sanctions. I don't think there was ever another viable option for him!
I am still not 100% convinced that he can legally sign with SU so the only thing to do is wait and see! If he can't sign with SU you will see him looking at a school not even on his current list! In my opinion!!!!

Either way I don't think he will stay there much longer. It will be much better for college basketball if he doesn't.

The sooner he is out of college ball the better. He has mastered gaming the system at this point and honestly I think UK is much cleaner than they were the first few years he was there. No drug policy, no selfreporting = no issues.

 

[Cusefan0307]

Where is Cal going to go? The NBA? Could he end up at Indiana? I'm sure they would throw him a boatload of cash.

 

[iommi]

Calipari's signed to a 7 year/ $52 million contract, that he signed last July. He's not leaving anytime soon.

Yes, but we know how that works. I would guess it's easily 50% chance that he doesn't stay there seven years.

especially after they added the cartel's director of enforcement to the athletic dept - they have that machine in lexington so finely tuned now that the only way it could possibly come down is if a group of determined whistleblowers come forward. highly doubt it

It was hilarious when Cal said even if he had known that LeBron was going back to Cleveland, that he still wouldn't have taken the Cavs job lol. If anybody believes that then I got several bridges in NY for sale at a good price. This is the same guy who spent nearly 10 years complaining that if the Nets would've let him draft Kobe instead of Kerry Kittles, he would still be coaching in the NBA.

He spins so well. People buy his crap and eat it up, makes me sick.

 

[jr4750]

If they go 40-0 and then turn around and sign Maker, Newman, etc., why even watch NCAA hoops anymore. His system is working magnificently. This would be his third championship appearance in a row, would it not?

that pretty little NIT first round knock out is in that three years...but i wouldn't complain with what he has done in the last 5 years

 

[CraigForth]

You never know, he might have to call it a career after tearing his ACL doing one of these

You're right. I thought that was four years ago, but that came in between their 2012 title and then 2014 appearance. Really hoping WVU takes them down this weekend!

That's a great line.

 

[Knicks411]

I admire his balls for saying something that literally no one believes. Oh really, you wouldn't sign up to coach the best player in the world?

 

[Madbiker]

Cal is getting paid like an NBA coach now. What does he gain by going to the NBA and taking over a bad team? Good teams don't usually fire their coach.

 

[Madbiker]

Isn't the spring signing period around the middle of April? Whatever is happening with Thomas Bryant should be apparent then.

Yes, the signing period is from April 15th-May 20th.

 

[jordoo]

Yes, the signing period is from April 15th-May 20th.

How does that correspond to the McD's game and the final deadline to declare for the draft?

 

[pfister1]

Plus, he'd be the front runner for the starting position here.

I think the deadline to declare is April 26th, but don't they then have the ability to withdraw up until mid June?
