Today Wall has a conference, tomorrow Patterson...50/50 chance 1 of them stays or not
Also Teague announces today at 1:30 which Italian he plays for....I'm UK all the way, but when it comes down to it I'm 100 percent for any team in Kentucky.
Interesting day in Kentucky College basketball.
I do not think Wall or Patterson will stay for one reason alone - the probable lock-out in the NBA in two seasons. When, not if the lockout happens, Patterson will have to play overseas for a year and Wall would have to play for another year after next. I do not believe either of them want to do that, they are gone.
If Wall stays then Patterson comes back for one more year as well. Wall goes, Patterson goes. Just my opinion, but Patterson is the first College player to come along in a few years with lottery pick skills that I think genuinely wants to win a NCAA Title almost as bad as going Pro. With Wall he gets another chance and if both of them come back then I think it is a bit more logical that Orton comes back as well. Orton has not signed with an agent and with the other early entry kids coming out could be the 8th or 9th player taken in the PF/C category, from 14-20th overall.
Love to see Wall, Brandon Knight, Orton, Patterson and Miller(or whomever) as the starting 5 next year. Wishful thinking I know
I want to know if Louisville will shoot off fireworks when Teague picks UK like they did last Saturday night when Lamb joined the Cats.... ;)
It's official..Wall is gone..But his press conference was awesome!
Teague just committed to UK. That gives the Cats the #1 and #2 player for 2011.
