We just don’t know.

That’s the thing. Despite the Thursday celebrations over Hamidou Diallo’s late-Wednesday night decision to pull out of NBA Draft eligibility in favor of a return to Kentucky so he could actually play in games, there is still a considerable amount of uncertainty about the 2017-18 Kentucky basketball team.

It will be young. That we know for sure. As head coach John Calipari has said, this will be the youngest team he’s ever coached. Calipari figures to start five freshmen, or at least four true freshmen and a redshirt freshman in Diallo. Wenyen Gabriel, Sacha Killeya-Jones and Tai Wynyard are the only holdovers from last season. And only Gabriel was a part-time starter.

It will be talented. There are eight players who received five-star ratings from the various recruiting analysts. There will be eight top-25 national recruits from the classes of 2016 and 2017.

Everything points to the FAB 8 winning it all. More records could be set on the way to #9. Hope these kids grow up quick.

He have the players and now it's up to Cal to get them to play up to their capabilities.
