There's also the perception that Howard and battle will be back next year since neither are on any mock drafts.  plus we went after two 5th year guards.  You look at Kentucky and right now all three guards are projected first round picks.  While mock drafts don't mean much right now it's easy for calipari to say "we will have one guard nExt year freshman Shai Alexander because our guards are all going pro so you will start while SU will have Howard and battle back. Plus who knows if they go after fifth year guys like this past year. You will be a back up at SU".

In reality he would start at SU with Howard in the backcourt and battle at the three. There's also a chance some of those Kentucky guards don't go pro. Briscoe and fox look like horrible three point shooters.

But like op said it's about perception and perception is Kentucky guards are all going pro and we will battle and Howard back.

Once Kentucky was serious contender It might have been better to convince green to wait until spring  like Thompson.  See what we have coming back and what Kentucky has coming back.  Easier to sway someone when you can tell them they start at one place and come off the bench at another
