Don’t know much, looks like a serviceable backup who’s played some ball but not likely much of a difference maker, at least next year.

We recruited him the first go around fwiw so that’s why you see Gainey and Lentz already following him, previous connection there. He played at NBA Global Academy in Australia which is also where Vescovi came to us from.

I think Pope is likely a solid coach, but I’m curious to see what they look like, complete 180 from Cal. Will they have a preseason projected 1st round pick on the roster? 2nd round? Seems like a bunch of dudes that can shoot, which is what he had at BYU, but not sure athletically how the same...

I will say it’s funny that a week ago it was Maryland everyone was worried about and that we heard was the other team in play and talking to him. Now it’s UK and we’ve not heard a word about Maryland.

But once he left didn’t they have 2 boosters promise $5m NIL to the new coach?

Still 99.9% As I said before, if someone comes in dropping a new record NIL number that could change things, and maybe UK is desperate enough to do that, but I don’t believe that to be the case.

I think the staff was split on it and ultimately thought Boswell could give them as much if not more this year if needed and that they could get someone better next year. Don’t think it necessarily means they won’t consider PG still, but opted to pass on Hammond. I’ll reserve final judgment to...

Hammond no longer visiting, staff decision.

Didn’t say that, I just don’t think he’s going to up and commit today without ever taking a visit.

Don’t think that’s super close to happening
