Adou Thiero indeed. UNC appears to be in a very good spot with him.
Adou Thiero, I’d imagine.
It’s unusual, but so is taking a new job and having zero scholarship players. No time to spread out visits. And if you can sell them all — or 2-3 of them — on playing together, with all of them in the same room, could work out great.

Spotted: 2 Kentucky legends at Keeneland! @CoachMarkPope @DanIssel44
The big names are popping in the portal now.

6-5 guard, former top-100 recruit, starter for the Sooners who averaged 11.8 points, 3.8 rebounds, 1.5 steals and shot 38% from 3 last season. Nice two-way player who was spotted at Keeneland with Mark Pope earlier today.

Fairly massive weekend/early next week ahead for Kentucky. Could go from no roster to a quite good top five/six guys in a hurry.

Utah transfer PG Deivon Smith, visiting Kentucky this weekend (per @TravisBranham_) had five triple-doubles last season (against Arizona, Stanford 2x, Iowa and VCU) and hit 6 of 6 3s, had 28, 7 and 6 against Indiana State in the NIT. Playmaker.
Large. Led the Pac-12 in assists and shot 40% from 3 last season.

Insane stat.
He’s a take, on name alone. Also a fun player.
Sorry for the tiny-print screenshot but this is the only format (saved to a big Dropbox file) that all my old SEC Country stories exist in anymore. Because absolutely screw Cox Media forever.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander playing every bit like the NBA MVP. Wild to think back to when he was the seventh-highest rated recruit in his own Kentucky signing class. Dude turned himself into this. With an early assist from then-UK assistant Joel Justus. Wrote this in 2018:
The Thunder is just freaking fun. And with a roster younger than some college teams. OKC is here to stay, and doesn’t even have the hilariously telegraphed eventual return of Durant yet!
The best dateline of the year.
That’s a really nice get for Ole Miss.
Have to thank @HoyaCoachCooley and @HoyasAD for a great year on the Hilltop. They are going to do amazing things. But the 1st player I coached over 30 years ago offered me an incredible chance to help him. BBN, I’m honored to be on your side. I know the assignment.

@KyleTucker_ATH I’ve read every Kentucky article you’ve wrote the last couple years and have enjoyed them all. Just wanted to say thanks for the quality journalism 👏🏻
@KyleTucker_ATH i just recorded this from a show, no idea what you’re talking about
@KyleTucker_ATH The one I'll always remember is taking down the gate at the top of the stairs that had been there for eight years and three toddlers.
@KyleTucker_ATH I’m no farmer, but I would imagine one doesn’t eat his last chicken 😂
Don’t be mad at me that Arkansas is going to be on ESPN and CBS and you’re going to have to watch UK on tape delay
4/13/2020- The day you got to see your father, but I had to say goodbye to my mother. Till words ain’t typed, and hugs are had. I’ll be here sharing your love momma. Love you ❤️
@KyleTucker_ATH I love that people won't believe what someone says in public multiple times but instead are waiting for some anonymously sourced report to believe what that person is clearly saying.
@KyleTucker_ATH Kyle, I know there are many who appreciate your objective take on UK, sports, and life. We appreciate you! Hope the twins are doing well! Always enjoy when you share things, as I’m a dad of twins as well. Enjoy!
@KyleTucker_ATH subscribed for the first time today. Looking forward to keeping up with your articles.
