re: Basketball recruiting

Newman is good friends with #1 2016 recruit Jayson Tatum. So that might get us an in there too. But I'm hearing he might go overseas

I haven't heard anything about him going overseas.

He wants to play point guard, and Kentucky already has Briscoe signed. I think Ulis comes back for Kentucky too. Calipari has played the game well by making Ulis a combo guard at times to trick Newman, but everyone knows what's going on.

Like you guys know I try to stay level headed and objective when it comes to recruiting, but I just think he's going to end up at LSU. Jerry Meyer knows his shite, and his sources are confident he'll end up at LSU. I think Kansas is too far, and I doubt a State legacy will go to Ole Miss. His mom lives in Louisiana, and he'd give LSU the-can't believe I'm typing this-#1 recruiting class. It just makes too much sense.

But basketball is sketchy as hell, and Kentucky's slush fund for basketball is probably similar to tNetwork for football and LSU football, so it could change any moment
