I read a few of the #UA19 posts on twitter. I think it's in reference to the new students coming in and their graduation year.




I've apparently lost my touch of smartass sarcasm.

You're right, we should've just given up on Rueben Foster,Rashaan Evans and TJ Yeldon too. Waste of time.

Harris/Frasier/Guice seem to be what it will come to. Landing any of those three would be phenomenal.

Article on Damien Harris:

LINK

A few quotes:

quote:

What will be the perfect fit?
Just a pro-style offense, somewhere that likes to run the ball obviously, but they could use me in any way they need. Definitely a team with a great family feel. I don't want to be part of a bunch of individuals. I'd like to play for a team that has all the common goals together to want to work together. I'd also like to play with other great players. I'd like to play with some of the best players in the country because you know, I can provide for them and they can provide for me, and we can make it a little bit easier on each other.


quote:

What was new about this visit after all the visits that you've taken there?
I don't think it was anything new. It was just more of a reassurance kind of thing. A lot of the players, like I said, I've known. I've met some new players and a lot of knew recruits who either were committed or leaning heavily to Kentucky, players I would potentially get to play with and seeing who I play against.


quote:

If your choice did come down to Kentucky and Alabama, one is going to be playing for a national championship, one is going to be in rebuilding mode in a sense but is the home-state school. How do you balance that, or look at the goals you could have at those places?
The main thing for Kentucky is to get to that point where you are winning consecutive games, making it to bowl games. Of course, everybody's goal is to play for the national championship someday, but you just kind of have to compare that with your desire to want to rebuild something or already go to an established program.


Third quote is pretty telling. He gone.

Well one of his finalists runs a pro-style offense whereas the other one just hired a guy who wants to throw it 45 times a game.

Third question says it all to me. He takes more time addressing playing for a subpar team and hoping to improve it over playing for a title team. Although he did say he wants to compete against the best, but I suppose Kentucky's top 30 class may qualify in his mind.

Looks like we will strike out this year.

What are the running backs looking like for next year? Any film I should watch?

Don't feel super confident on Harris like I did before, however, when it is time to put pen to paper... seeing the word Alabama on that piece of paper is a lot more reassuring.

Don't give up hope on Frasier and Guice. Both are very interested.

The number 1 overall RB for 2016 is a bama lean. He has a CB of 75 % to the good guys out 8 predictions. Penn state and Rutgers round out his top 3.

Kareem Walker

Highlights

Kind of an Isaiah Crowell/Alex Collins type running style

I'm curious to know what Kentucky Football is actually "rebuilding".

I don't blame a kid for wanting to play for his home state school, but I just don't understand the rebuilding comment.

Only thing they have built is a blue skin inbred dynasty and a good round ball team with some 7 foot black guys who go pro after 1 year that aren't from kentucky.

So nothing related to football and what Damien should be interested in, unless he likes inbreds or wants to be a PG

To be fair, UK ran the Tony Franklin Air Raid "System" with Neal Brown. They aren't changing styles that much with Shannon Dawson.

Cowart waiting until after he takes his OVs to announce. Hate that we already used our OV.
