@alexeldah @TerrancAbe @jacetheukfan Ikr. Crazy to compare an undersized B12 Center who went on to transfer after his sophomore year to a school in KY.

[NewtDog @alec_502]

@TaninSmithKK @BigBlueBoysPod @KentuckyKavalry I then purposely pointed out good UK players that transferred from lesser teams as non-starters. But your blue tinted glasses jumped immediately defending how good they were. Point is you don’t know anything either.

[NewtDog @alec_502]

@TaninSmithKK @BigBlueBoysPod @KentuckyKavalry My original point was not about Alvaro. The point was you were making up a bunch general points about a few of Louisville’s players to make yourself feel better.

[NewtDog @alec_502]

@TaninSmithKK @BigBlueBoysPod @KentuckyKavalry I can see you don’t get it

I can make up a similar argument saying Wilkins will have a Wooley “drop off” because he is coming from a G5 and making the step up to a Power conference. Get it?

Synopsis - your argument is rooted in your own made up criteria regarding the roster.

[NewtDog @alec_502]

@reecemills___ @BigBlueBoysPod @TaninSmithKK @KentuckyKavalry Let’s hear the take

[NewtDog @alec_502]

@TaninSmithKK @BigBlueBoysPod @KentuckyKavalry Robinson - Committed to BYU when they were in the WCC, 1 year in B12

Brea - best shooter in the country averaged 11pts and didn’t start at Dayton

Aberdeen - sure

Yeah, similar. That’s my point. It’s lazy to discredit based off that one criteria you used.

Selective Perception

[NewtDog @alec_502]

@TaninSmithKK @BigBlueBoysPod @KentuckyKavalry Based on that logic you could diminish every transfers value.

Jaxson Robinson and Koby Brea (both 4 star transfers) came from non Power 5 schools and off the bench. Aberdeen too.

Just saying, it’s a weak argument. Alvaro out played the guy who started over him with less mins.

@TOPPER_TALK B

[NewtDog @alec_502]

@TaninSmithKK @BigBlueBoysPod @KentuckyKavalry Agreed. Wooley is needed to take a leap (not a big one) but he is young and was getting sub 20 mins a game last year behind seniors/lottery pick. He is good, and showed that when playing starter minutes.

[NewtDog @alec_502]

@TaninSmithKK @BigBlueBoysPod @KentuckyKavalry Yes, Lowe was an All-ACC PG during one of the worst ACC seasons in the modern era. But will agree that injuries didn’t allow the results to play out.

How do you quantify Alvaro? Because the first 3 rounds he played great and only got 9 mins in the Elite Eight.

@bordeauxyoutube For reference. Comparing to a standard work week (50 weeks, 250 business days), that’s a 6.75 hour work day for the year.

Gotta go full time. Need to see 2,000 hours CFB 27.

@AsianFanatic_ @orangejuice_865 Rating Franck as a 4 star is objectively hilarious.

@GocowboysGouk @WildcatsTongue Technically on paper, no.

2025 had more talent in the portal. You will be a Top 25 team with the addition of Momcilovic. Most have said this.
