When it comes to recruiting, never count Cal out!

So much for a down recruiting year. We vault back to the #1 recruiting class just like that!

247 Sports has us #1

ESPN still has us #2

We needed another good Center, not another Point Guard.

We'll see lots of Zone defenses again next season, so I hope we can knock down those 3's regularly.

I'd rather run 3 guards and two athletic forwards than have a true center. Poythre, Skal and Lee will be more than enough. We will be faster and may actually get to see the dribble drive.

This will be a very fast team. Spread the floor, move the ball and drive. I see lots of exciting offense. Can't wait!

I agree. I think UK was in great shape before landing Murray. He only makes them better.

Yeah. It has been what? Six years now we have been waiting to see this?

[Eek!]

I think that we do have the right personnel to run it... and I think it can be devastating.

I am really excited to see how the 2015-16 team evolves....will definitely be different from what we have been used to recently but very quick.

Tip/Trey Im just as excited for this year, as I was for last year. May be even a little more because I prefer a guard oriented offense.

I thought we had a decent chance to win the championship before we got Murray but getting him really makes us one of the very best teams in the country. We have the size plus the speed to be very special.
