Would it be better if Bam stays for his sophomore season and we get neither Knox or Bamba, or would we be a better team if Bam leaves and we get one or both of those two recruits? I'm just wondering if Bam with a year of experience would be better than a freshman. My thought is that we must have some experienced impact players if we want to win a title like we had in 2012. That year we had Darius Miller, Terrance Jones and Doron Lamb as upperclassmen.

Not positive but I think if you'll check none of those 3 are still in the NBA. My feeling is that Bam is not going to be around very long. I would take Bomba over him because he is more like a Davis.

Do you think Brisco leaves? He would help next year

Here is Briscoe's stats: 47% f/g %, 28.8 three point%, 12.1 ppg, 5.4 rebounds pg, 4.2 assists pg, and a 63% free throw shooter.

Here is a list of underclassmen Players who will sign with an agent

I thought Jones was still playing in the NBA!

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 04-02-2017, 08:34 PM:

He is, Jones is playing with the Bucks right now!

TO answer your original question: I'd like to see Bam come back for his sophomore year! Mike Pratt seems to think he'd improve his stock 3X if he'd stay one more year!

Terrence Jones was waived by the Milwaukee Bucks after 3 games.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 04-02-2017, 08:58 PM:

The Bucks signed Gary Peyton with the open roster spot left by Jones.

If Briscoe does leave he may end up wishing he had stayed. It's a big jump to the NBA especially a player like Briscoe who is shooting 28% from the 3 point line and 63% from free throw line.

It would help Bam to stay at least one more year at Kentucky.
