UW was always good about keeping the Seattle kids local under Romar, but Hopkins didn’t or couldn’t continue that. Could’ve been the zone defense or the losing or he couldn’t establish local relationships fast enough. Banchero going to Duke left a scar on that program. A double legacy (plus aunts and uncles I think) who grew up a UW fan.

grasping for something to talk about because the convos on here are boring me to tears. This could be a decent target for a more veteran PG option. Charlotte kid.

Edit: nevermind his shooting numbers are abysmal. Carry on

Just reminded me of that Malik Mack rumor. Haven’t seen any smoke about that happening since so thinking he likely stays at Georgetown

Yes

Is he in play for any jobs right now?

I bet we look at Ryan Cornish from Dartmouth. Maryland kid, all Ivy League, followed by Bryce Crawford. Kind of a Rohde replacement. He probably won’t be a top priority but imagine we’ll talk to him. Definitely would have concerns about defense/athleticism.

At least Kentucky’s logo isn’t included in the graphic for McKneely.

Would probably be less painful for us if he went to a blue blood that’s not in the ACC, tho. Going to Carolina or having to play him twice… not cool…

Maybe I’m just petty but I’d boo the crap out of iMac if he came back to play us at Louisville or UNC. Like c’mon man. I get this is more the norm now but you stick it out for 3 years and then dip to a rival? Would not go over well

That said, hope like hell we can keep him

I think that competition actually has me more hopeful.

Hubert Davis is not a good coach despite the brand.

And Pat Kelsey still has 0 NCAA tournament wins and no presence in the NBA.

I would much rather him go to Kentucky than the other two.

I know I’ve linked this before but it’s a classic. Yanks fans boo Robbie Cano upon his return to NY:

I take the very simple approach.

I root for UVa. Full stop.

If he don’t wanna be here…I’m done with him. Same as everyone else.

Also Pat Kelsey comes across as a huge tool. If that’s who you want to go play for then…yikes

If Isaac isn’t in a UVA uniform next season Ryan Odom & Co are off to a horrible start imo

By all accounts it sounds like he’s a pretty good dude, but he has the energy of a small yappy dog.

The Kentucky fans in my life complain that he’s not hate-able enough. They miss Slick Rick.

He probably is and I’m just blinded by my hatred for Louisville.

We cannot allow this. Get Dean and/or Markel on the phone immediately

Sometimes it’s more than about the money.
