Diallo laughed, leaned back in his chair and pointed to the ring of posters on the walls of the Wildcats’ practice gym. Most of the 31 players picked in the NBA draft during coach John Calipari’s first eight seasons are on those posters — which are oversized trading cards — in their pro uniforms.

“That’s why we’re coming to Kentucky,” said the former top-10 recruit. “We’re coming to be great players, and hopefully one day we can hang our poster up in this gym.”

Tonight's madness was over the top as far as recruiting effectiveness. Cal's talk at the beginning was one that I could see being directed to those 10 kids sitting somewhere near the court. Drake was a big attraction for them also, and saying he was coming back to put on a free concert for the students......wow. If we don't get 2 or 3 kids to sign in the next few weeks they must b getting money from some other school.
