To be clear: Isaiah Briscoe is tired of talking about Kentucky. Understandably, he got a lot of questions Friday at the NBA Combine about the place he played college basketball for the last two seasons. A ridiculous number of players have been drafted out of that program, which is Briscoe’s current (albeit unlikely) goal.

“All the Kentucky questions, I don’t play for Kentucky no more!” Briscoe yelped. “I’m just trying to start fresh.”

Maybe it bothers him that four other Wildcats are projected to be picked in the 2017 NBA Draft in June, but Briscoe is not. Perhaps it stings that the former McDonald’s All-American point guard had to play off the ball most of his UK career — and in the shadow of star guards Tyler Ulis and Jamal Murray as a freshman, then De’Aaron Fox and Malik Monk as a sophomore.

If you can't hunt with the big dogs, stay on the porch.

I am one that is happy to see Briscoe leave Kentucky. I thought we would have been a much better team this past season without him. It will suprise me if he makes an NBA roster but for his sake, I hope he gets drafted and makes it.

I agree he has very little chance of making an NBA roster. He may get picked up to play in the D league bu that won't pay near as much as playing over seas.
