Gone. Hate to see but probably his "draft stock" might never be higher. Liked this kid a lot.

Hate to see this young man go. He was fun to watch. Very smart player and will only get better. Wish him well!

This roster is going to get hit as bad as the year we lost 7 in one swift kick. I see it as a clean sweep of all five guys leaving. I guess maybe a couple of them will be headed for the G league for a while.

He will be missed but with his talent he has a bright future. Good luck and hope he has a long and productive NBA career.

I love Quickley and wish he would've stayed, but I kind of agree with TreyBall - Quickley will be Doron Lamb 2.0. The only thing that might save him is that he gets his shot off quickley (no pun intended). Lamb had more of a deliberate, slower release. I hope IQ proves me wrong!

My wife has been following basketball for more than 75 years because her Dad was a high school coach. She told me about Quickly and his abilities when she first saw him play at U.K. She was right and I also hate to see him leave.

I really hate that for our Cats. I really thought he would come back for one more year, but this supposed to be a weak draft and maybe he will get drafter higher because of that. I thought it would help him to come back one more year and see if he could get in to the first round. I just don't think they should go if they aren't a first rounder. No guarantee contract for 2nd round. Next year might be a tough one. We will be really, really young, and not very deep. And if Richards leaves, no real center. Hopefully we have a few shooters, then and we can spread the floor drive, and hit threes.
