This past Wednesday, it looked as if recruiting genius John Calipari was gonna miss out on the nations top two prospects. Before Muhammad and Noel made their destinations known, sports writers were saying neither was gonna pick the Cats. When Muhammad took the mic, it appeared as though the writers were right as he selected UCLA. There was still nervousness with Noel, as most were predicting he would be headed to Georgetown. But when all was said and done, it was UK that was shaved into what is sure to become the most famous flattop in college basketball next season.
With the commitment of the best shot blocker in high school, and the forth straight #1 ranked recruiting class, fans of other schools took to their keyboards. It was the usual bile that opposing fans spew when Kentucky or John Calipari succeed at anything. But I have to admit, some of it was actually entertaining to read. Makes you wonder about the thought process of some people. I'm gonna share a few of the ones I found humorous, there were some that I will not mention as they are very disrespectful to the parties involved.
It shows he can spell the name of the school, which puts him ahead of most LSU recruits.
EVERYONE should have known this was going to happen. This is like a girl turning down an offer from UCONN, rare. If I was 18 and told I could make 3-10 Mill after a year of school, I would sign the offer in my sleep.... Should have gone to CUSE though, we're stacked.
That's why I hate these big schools. I mean, of course your gonna win all the time if every year you get the top 5 high school players in the country. It's like the Lakers acquiring Derrick Rose, LeBron James, and Dwight Howard at cente. It's kinda ridiculous.
Wait... Are we sure that isn't Kid n Play?
You know your going to be better if you lose one eyebrow and replace it with two
At least this guy has TWO eyebrows
Typical
I never watch basketball and this is why
Huh, weird. The cheater gets another top ranked recruit. Imagine that.
NCAA is a joke. We are supposed to believe that these guys go to class, lol!!! Let them go to the pros right off. Just a way for colleges to get rich, while the REAL students struggle to pay for it.
Should have had a $ sign instead of the U of K.... They leave for the NBA at KU quick
It really annoys me when people use KU for Kentucky. But it REALLY annoys me when they see UK on TV and STILL use KU.
Let's see their team GPA at the end of the year
Guess this fellow missed our GPA this past season when Kentucky was #1 in the SEC
GREAT.,. We get to see one of the same four or five teams win the national championship again next year. It will either be Kentucky, North Carolina, Duke, or Kansas.
That's why those teams are called the "ELITE" teams in college basketball. That's why you didn't list BYU.
The ones that I didn't list here were directed towards Nerlen's in a extreme negative way from fans that wanted him to join their team. Now, I'm not saying that some Kentucky fans aren't just as bad, because our select few are. But there is no reason in flooding these KIDS' Facebook, Twitter or phones with some of the things I have seen. Some people say its the "one and done" rule, or coaches like John Calipari that is ruining college basketball. They're wrong. It's people who attack these KIDS for making a decision that is best for THEM.
