Demarcus Cousins '09

[jdwade]

Seen on Scouts.com that Cousins has UK on his list of schools. Anybody heard anything about this kid coming to UK? Last I heard we hadn't offered him scholarship yet. Crazy! This kid is probably the top center in that class. Which is what we desperately need to come here and play. Although Daniel Orton wouldn't be a bad choice either, or what about Keith Gallon. Oak Hill always produces stars.

We are not very high on his list and UAB (Mike Davis) is the heavy favorite to land this kid. I'd be the first to want to go after him but from his coach's comments and himself, it would probably be a wasted effort.

Do you know why we aren't high on his list? I remember a while ago that we were a solid #2 (from his own mouth) behind UAB. Wonder what happened.

I'm not really sure why we dropped or if we suddenly lost interest in him. Maybe someone like Marc Maggard can chime in on the reason why.

Jeff Drumond said on WVLK AM last night that Cousins and Mike Davis are really tight and have been for years. Doesn't think UK ever had a shot. FWIW.

For some reason we let up on top guys all the time, I dont see why we arent all over Cousins, Favors, Wall, and Orton all the time

Especially Wall & Orton.

Especially Wall & Orton.

I have watched videos of Favors and he looks really good. He might be better than Orton. If we got either Favors or Orton, we would be in really good shape. Plus, Favors has an EXTREMELY country accent and its fun to listen to:thumbup:
