I would say the only chance he stays after this year is the NBA Lockout. My guess him and Brandon Knight are both gone unless the lockout happens.

Looks like Kanter is going to be missed immensely. If this team had a solid inside presence they could be really good even better than last years team. They sure have taken this "Dribble Drive Offense" to heart. Knight was recruited and all reports was he is an outstanding shooter and has "Dribble Driveitis". Deandre Liggins has "Dribble Driveitis". Between the two of them they hit the BOTTOM of the rim on their drives a bunch of times in the Washington and UConn games. They got too far in out of control and just threw them up at the rim. Sort of a double edges sword with Harrelson for we MUST have his rebounding but could really use his outside 3 point shot to drag the other teams big fella outside to clear out the lane. Darius Miller has what I think is the best drive and then pull up jumper from 10-15 feet of anyone that I have seen at UK in a very long time if not ever. I would love to see his shooting percentages on this kind of shot and my guess is it would be 70% or better for the last 2 years. For this team, we HAVE to stroke the 3 pointer to keep the defense out on us and honest for when we decide to Dribble Drive. Otherwise, they sag off when we are not making the outside shot which hurts us even more. Would have loved to seen Patterson on this team and with him in the D League he might be wishing he was here as well. Looks like every year will be like last year, first 15 games of the year and a bunch of talented players trying to figure it all out, next 15 games trying to win the SEC and then the last 6 going as far as they can go. Lose players to the NBA, provided no Lockout, reload and do it all over again in 2011.
