Class of 2021 PF Arthur Kaluma (AZ) Offered

Isn’t Arizona going to get nailed by the NCAA? He’d be nuts to go there.

They should but who knows. They got the big man transfer from Gonzaga and the LSUs etc are still chugging along without a care in the world. NCAA is a joke.

I hate to be a homer but the way we got crushed for a minor transgression versus the way the NCAA shrugged off Unc (cheating scandal), Duke (Zion was paid) Arizona, Lsu, Ok State ( oh you want to play in the NCAA tournament, go right ahead) is infuriating.

Arizona should be severely penalized but they won’t be. And it may cost us this kid.

 

[RF2044]

Nope, paying players is outside of the NCAAs jurisdiction. Only things involving Syracuse are within their jurisdiction

"Wheelhouse."

pisses me off to no end.

Is Arizona considered West Coast?

 

[Cuse1055]

Fingers crossed although logic says it could be TyTy to Kentucky.

Would Tyty to UK surprise anyone, though?

Idk, hope not.

 

[Cusesky8214]

Tyty is suppose to commit on May 15th per his twitter. I heard today that Arizona State is the one to watch for Kaluma not Arizona. I do feel like the Kaluma decision will be pretty quick so maybe its him? Who knows...Would Kaluma try to get on campus for summer sessions like Benny? Thats coming up next month I believe.

Bossi thinks he decides sooner then the 15th and that its UK. Not shocking after Hickman decomitted and Cal put the full court press on Tyty.

That tweet still doesn’t match up with TyTy to Kentucky I wouldn’t think though. Could be wrong though.

Paging insiders...

If it was us this would be more out of nowhere than Lands

 

[cuse62]

If Arizona is the west coast, maybe he is committing to Cuse from the west coast.

I knew someone who thought Colorado was on the West Coast.

I knew someone who thought Big Ben was a state park in west Texas.

The big man followed his old asst coach at the Zags who is the new A head coach.
ASU was in Kaluma' s final 8. Can't imagine him going to Tucson. If A thought they were going to skate they would not have fired their coach.. Kaluma is from a suburb of Phoenix. I'd worry about ASU.
What do we know about his academics? A and Cuse are in a different world from UNLV and ASU. I'd guess its ASU.

[kcsu]

Looks like AZ. Jimmy coming to cuse most likely closed the door.

 

[PauliePeppas]

Think those quotes tell it all...

 

[Cuse1055]

Yep, looking like going to have to fish in the portal for someone ok with spot minutes.

 

[Sherman20]

Sounds like our staff is being real with him, and it sounds like he and his coach appreciate that. I bet they’re telling him that Bourama’s knee issues could continue to be a problem and that they might only have Jesse playable at center for most of next season, which would move one of the forwards into a key reserve role at center in the zone, meaning either Kaluma, Jimmy or Cole is the backup there. Kaluma with his athleticism might be ideal. So there might be a good amount of minutes available even as a freshman.

 

[kcsu]

I give credit to the staff for playing it down the middle. Kid wants PT it would be one heck of a deal to land him but it doesn't look good.

 

[jdubs30]

Almost sounds like if we had guaranteed minutes he’d come, oh well.

im happy the staff is recruiting more nationally lately than they have in years past
