Andrew Wiggins saidthat if he were to join theCats’ 2013 recruiting class,UK would have the “the bestcollege team ever.”

Speaking to KentuckySports Television in Chicagoahead of Wednesday’s Mc-Donald’s All-Americangame, Wiggins was askedabout the possibility of himjoining the Cats 2013-14 ros-ter.

“That would be crazy,”Wiggins said to KSTV.“We’d be the best collegeteam ever ... five of the topsix players going to oneschool ... the impact on col-lege basketball would becrazy.”

The 6-foot-8, 215-poundforward is confident the2013-14 Cats would end theseason by hanging a nationalchampionship banner fromthe rafters of Rupp Arena ifhe were to join what is al-ready the No. 1 recruitingclass in the nation.

“If I went to that teamwe’d win it all for sure,”Wiggins said to KSTV. “Me,Julius (Randle), the Harrisontwins, Marcus Lee, Dakari(Johnson) and James Young,that’s ... something special.”

Wiggins, the No. 1-ranked prospect in the Classof 2013, has four teams stillin the running for his com-mitment: Florida State,Kansas, North Carolina andUK.

The Huntington (W.Va.)

Prep senior has made officialvisits to all four schools andwas at Rupp Arena to watchthe Cats defeat MississippiState on Feb. 27.

No date has been givenfor when the Toronto nativewill announce his commit-ment.

UK head coach JohnCalipari visited Wiggins onThursday as HuntingtonPrep hosted a ceremony tohonor the forward’s selectionto the McDonald’s All-American game.

Calipari’s roster for nextseason is starting to takeshape with the news Sundaythat sophomore guard RyanHarrow will transfer to Geor-gia State to be close to hissick father.

With Wiggins, UK wouldbe ‘best college team ever’

By Tom Hurley

Archie Goodwin is thefirst victim of UK head

coach JohnCalipari’s re-cruiting suc-cess.

The UKfreshman an-nounced hisintention to

enter theNBA Draftin a releasefrom UKAthletics.

“Al-though I re-ally wanted

Archie to return for his soph-omore season, I fully supporthim choosing to pursue hisdreams,” Calipari said in therelease.

ESPN’s draft expert ChadFord doesn’t believe Good-

win is ready for the NBA.“I don’t think he’s ready,”

Ford told The Courier-Jour-nal’s Kyle Tucker on Mon-day.

Even Goodwin himselfbelieved two weeks ago thathe wasn’t ready for theNBA.

“I don’t think I’m readyto go,” Goodwin said afterthe loss to Robert Morris. “Ifany of us were saying wethink we should leave, thenwe’d all be delusional.”

Emotional young men’scomments following a sea-son-ending loss have to betaken in context, but morethan anything what the pasttwo weeks have broughtGoodwin is perspective.

Calipari has reeled inwhat many believe is thegreatest recruiting class in the

history of college basketballfor next season — and hemight not even be done yet.

The twin guards fromTexas, Aaron and AndrewHarrison, already havedeluxe accommodations re-served at the Wildcat CoalLodge for next season. Theyare the No. 1-ranked incom-ing shooting guard and pointguard by Rivals.com.

The Cats have sevencommitments, including sixof the top 18 ranked by Ri-vals, and are still in the mixfor the No. 1 overall rankedplayer, Andrew Wiggins.

With the vast amount oftalent on the way, Goodwinhad to see the writing on thewall and realize his role onthe team would be much

Freshman announces intention to declare for draft

On the precipice of a Fi-nal Four, UK went toe-to-toewith No. 1 seed Connecticutfor the first 11 minutes. After

an A’diaMathies freethrow put theCats up, 23-22, the gamelooked like itwas shapingup to be abattle.

ThenwhatevermagicUConn headcoach GenoAuriemmaemploys to

dominate women’s basketballkicked in, and the Huskies ef-fectively ended the game witha 26-3 run to end the first half.

The Cats lost, 83-53,falling short of a trip to viefor a national title for thethird time in four years.

The game resembledUK’s only other blowout lossof the year, when it lost 85-51 at Baylor in the secondgame of the season. In thatfirst half, the Bears ended thefirst half on a 25-4 run.

Also similar to the Baylorgame, UK struggled to ac-complish anything in thehalfcourt, shooting just 30.6percent from the field andcommitting 21 turnovers.

Any sort of offensive setwas a misadventure for UK.Quality shot attempts werehard to come by, and goodlooks were often thwarted byUConn’s interior defense.The Huskies tallied 10 blockson the night.

One the other end of thecourt, UK’s defense was al-most as ineffective as its of-fense. UConn finished the

game shooting 51.8 percent.Back doors were exploited.Players fronting the post werepassed over. Layups wereopen and shots were falling.

The Cats needed a bal-anced effort, but support washard to come by.

Mathies, who scored only12 points in Waco, Texas,struggled to get going againstUConn. The senior guard waslimited by foul trouble in thefirst half and managed to score14 points on 4-of-9 shooting inher last game as a Cat.

Sophomore guard Jen-nifer O’Neill finished with 13points and four turnovers. Noother Cat hit double figures;junior center DeNesha Stall-worth was close with ninepoints and eight rebounds.

UK likely would have hadto play perfect to pull off theupset. The losses by other No.1 seeds Baylor and Stanfordprobably didn’t do the Catsany favors, perhaps alertingUConn to the possibility ofstumbling on the way to con-tend for a championship.

UK didn’t put together aLouisville performance, oreven a Georgia performance,who upended Baylor andStanford, respectively. UKhas wins over both of thoseteams this year, but thosegames mean little now.

The takeaway from Mon-day’s game is that UK is avery good team — averageteams don’t win 30 gamesand extend their seasons thislong — but the Cats aren’t agreat team. Yet.

The Cats missed chancesto bring home SEC regular-season and tournament titles.

UK will host a presenta-tion about free speech inhigher education and thestate of the First Amendmentat the university level onWednesday at 6 p.m. inWhite Hall Classroom Build-ing Room 102.

Will Creeley, director oflegal and public advocacyfor the Foundation for Indi-

vidual Rights in Education-will be on campus to exam-ine the state of freedom ofspeech at UK and campusesacross the nation.

FIRE has labeled UK a“yellow light” school, mean-ing there are instances wherecertain policies and ruleshinder students’ and faculty’sfull freedom of speech andexpression.

“UK is a ‘yellow light’school because several of its

policies could be interpretedto restrict speech protected bythe First Amendment,” Cree-ley said. “The good news isthat these policies could beeasily revised to earn UK a‘green light,’ like EasternKentucky University.”

“This is a very importantissue that is often overlookedby most students,” said mar-keting senior Josh Manners.“It is odd to think that as stu-dents of this university weare being restricted of ourconstitutional rights, but stu-dents really should becomemore educated about theirrights.”

During his presentation,Creeley will also address anincident that occurred in thecampus dorms when a studentrefused to let campus policeofficers enter his dorm room.

After an officer enteredthe room and found nothing,the student posted the videoon YouTube, which stirredcontroversy on campus andresulted in the involved cam-pus officer being fired, Cree-ley said.

The free presentation issponsored by the UK Chap-ter of Young Americans forLiberty as part of its FreeSpeech Week celebration.

REASON TO WATCH: Perhaps a TVrecord for use of the F word?

WHAT IT’S ABOUT: Netflix’s got a show,Hulu’s got a show, everybody’s got a show.This is DirecTV’s first big original drama, aftergrabbing “Damages” from FX and funding“Friday Night Lights” with NBC.

It’s an adults-only gritfest starring ThandieNewton (“ER”) as a California undercovercop with a familiar problem. When she’s un-der, she wants out. When she’s out, she wantsback under. Ethically muddled and morallysuspect, Newton’s unsettled detective Grace,aka dockside dealmaker Jackie, has been burn-ing the candle at both ends. Now she’s gettingburned by her family ties — her 7-year-oldson gets killed, her teen daughter hates her —and her professional ties, too. The cops havehad it with her rogue behavior, while her mobcontact is thisclose to putting a gun to her faceand pulling the trigger.

Can she play both sides to eke out a mid-dle win?

MY SAY: The bigger question is, will we

care? “Rogue” is a seriously confusing show,all dark corners, oblique motives, scene frag-ments and Important Dialogue. In fact, every-thing is A Crucial Moment, played with inten-sity designed to signify — something.

But arresting images and raw emotions donot a story make, much less a series that asksyou to return weekly. “Rogue” is all peaks andno valleys of the sort that viscerally reveal set-ting, circumstance and personality. Sadly, nei-ther Newton nor any of the cops, family mem-bers and criminal types around her exhibits themagnetism to establish that empathy in short-hand, so we’re left with lots of unpleasant peo-ple doing brutal things for reasons unsatisfying.

While it’s true that too obvious is bad inTV drama, so is too obscure, too gray (it’s gotthat shot-in-Vancouver gloom), too pedestrian— especially when it’s delivered like A BigDeal. And with exceedingly profligate F-wordinvocation, also signifying nothing. Stop it.My ears hurt.

BOTTOM LINE: Sound and fury equalinglittle.

On Monday UK an-nounced that freshman guard

Archie Goodwin would notbe returning for his sopho-more season and will insteadenter the 2013 NBA Draft.

UK also confirmed thatfreshman center Willie

Cauley-Stein and sophomoreforward Kyle Wiltjer will re-main with the Cats for at leastone more season.

The national signing peri-od begins on April 17.

more limited.Prior to this season, the

Calipari formula seemed sim-ple. Recruit a top class, de-velop a team, achieve in thepostseason and watch theplayers get gobbled up by theNBA. Rinse. Repeat.

Who could have predict-ed that this year would bedifferent?

Through nobody’s partic-ular fault, the Cats are in aposition where there may ac-tually be too many skilledplayers on the roster.

Goodwin has had time toevaluate his standing on theCats roster next year and re-

alizes he may as well moveon to greener pastures.

Pastures that will bemuch less green than theywould have been beforeGoodwin played for the Catsthis season.

Draftexpress.com’s NBAmock draft had Goodwin as aNo. 9 selection last June. Thesame site now has him listedas the No. 18 selection. Fordtold The Courier-Journal’sKyle Tucker that he would“be surprised if he’s not oneof the first 30 picks.”

First-round picks earnguaranteed contracts, but theamounts vary greatly.

If picked ninth, Goodwinwould have made $6.1 mil-lion combined over threeyears. At 18th, that number

drops to $3.9 million. If hedrops to — let’s say — 26th,his three-year earnings dropto $2.8 million.

It is entirely possible thatplaying this year for the Catsmay have cost Goodwin $1.1million a year for the nextthree years.

Some in the fan basemight think that is a fittingend. They remember all toowell the play from Goodwinduring much of the season —flashes of brilliance followedby head-scratching, face-palming decisions.

Those head-scratchingdecisions became rare in thefinal weeks, and solid playbecame the norm. Goodwinscored in double-digits inthe final eight games on the

season, hitting 50 percent ofhis field goals during thattime.

He played with heart, heplayed with passion and hewas hitting his stride in thefinal stages of his freshmanseason. Goodwin wasseething following the RobertMorris loss — he wasn’tready for the season, or hiscareer, to end.

A sophomore and maybeeven a junior year underCalipari would lead to furtherdevelopment and likely NBADraft lottery status for Good-win.

That won’t happen, how-ever, at this “players-first”program.

There are just too manyplayers.

for the past four years, willundoubtedly hurt. But UKwill return the rest of its ros-ter, as well as add two Mc-Donald’s All-Americans inLinnae Harper and MakaylaEpps.

Head coach MatthewMitchell has set the foun-dation for the program torival some of the top teamsin the nation, but glory willhave to wait at least onemore year, and maybemore.

But the Cats won’t beleft out of the Final Four forlong. UK has been knock-ing on that door for yearsnow. It’ll cross the thresholdsoon enough.

The 2012-13 men’s basketball sea-son ended with a puttering halt at thehand of the Robert Morris Colonials inMoon Township, Penn. Many of Ken-tucky’s most loyal fans began to callthe dedication of this year’s team intoquestion.

This past season, though sprinkledwith some positives, seemed like aconstant uphill battle against the ex-pectations of an ambitious fan base.

After Nerlens Noel’s injury onFeb. 12 during the Cats’ matchup withFlorida, the UK men’s basketball teamlost six of their last 10 games by anaverage margin of almost 14.6 pointsper loss.

In the final 10 games, the Cats av-eraged only 64.7 points per game, andcould only muster 56 points per gamein their six losses. With these stats inmind, the loss to Robert Morris is lesssurprising.

Although last season ended grimly,there have been some developments inthe past weeks that could potentiallymend the spirits of the ailing Kentuckyfan base.

Julius Randle pledged himself tothe Wildcats. Randle is ranked third inESPN’s Top 100.

With the addition of Randle, Ken-

tucky now has six players in the top18 of ESPN’s Top 100 players list,certainly challenging the legend of the“Fab 5” at Michigan.

According to the same list, UKnow has the top-ranked player at thepoint guard, shooting guard, powerforward and center positions.

The horrible end to this season hasthe potential to usher in a wiser teamwith greater talent and more experi-ence.

Based solely on potential, UK hasthe makeup of an outright nationalchampion.

The funny thing about potential isthat talking about potential doesn’tmean anything until it becomes real,and if it doesn’t become real it is thatperson’s fault for not living up to it,not the people who created the hype.

The UK men’s basketball teamwill be quick to forget this season andwould be wise to abandon the nostal-gia of former teams in comparison.Because of Coach John Calipari’s pro-lific recruiting scheme, it is no longerthe goal of his teams to live up to thelegends of the past but to manifest alegacy that is specific to that team.
