Kentucky basketball just landed a commitment from 4-star Trent Noah.
On today's episode of Locked On Kentucky, Lance Dawe discusses Trent Noah, an elite shooter in the 2024 college basketball recruiting class, committing to Mark Pope and the Kentucky Wildcats. Noah decommitted from the South Carolina Gamecocks and flipped to UK. He's a perfect fit for the Kentucky basketball 2024 roster.
What if Mark Pope and Kentucky basketball faced off against John Calipari and the Arkansas Razorbacks tomorrow? What would be the strengths and weaknesses of each team? Who would win? Dawe takes a look at an article that explains who would win and gives his take.

He the Pope knows Kentucky basketball! Noah is awesome! I’m in Florida saying this and have been a Wildcat fan since about 1984. So there you go.

Boogie fland is the walmart brand Rob Dillingham. Johnell Davis is no where near what Antonio Reeves was last year. The difference is truly Adou Thiero, that's why I wanted him to go literally anywhere else. But in great Calipari fashion, 0 urgency to guard high ball screens will be their downfall. The players were never the issue, we had the best every year...

The best edition to ARK is Kenny Pain. Love UK being underestimated, less pressure and shorter ceiling. If Pope just coaches the system, he had BYU with far better players. There is no way we are not competitive.

Kentucky has experience on and off the court, Coach Mark Pope can go big with height or go small with speed and shooting…Go Cats!!!

@clinthardy1954 Ай бұрын

So, if the college basketball conference schedule is 90-95% the same UK loses at least 4 games. The non conference college schedule is too early to predict. Based on the current roster as is we should expect 4-8 losses in Coach Mark Pope's year one. Have to wait and see who UK picks up player wise between now and October. It could be a special first season, barring injuries and not adding any other players.

I've watched a lot of videos on this guy the last two days and am super impressed. Just an incredibly beautiful jumper form-wise and percentage-wise. Physically great size at 6'6" 210. The dude has tree trunks for thighs. When he was a younger player he was more of a passing point guard who got huge and is now more of a small forward. UK needs to develop him some. He went to a little poe-dunk county high school, not a fancy basketball academy or private school. Get him in leaner and faster, quicker doing all those goofy drills with the tennis balls to speed up the reflexes and hand/eye coordination. Probably won't crack the rotation next year, but will definitely be a solid role-player in 2026 and could even see him being a star as an upperclassman.

@cmammen Ай бұрын

not leaner 210 for 6'6" isn't beefy... it's a great start!

@mylesrountree3173 Ай бұрын

If we don’t end up getting Chaz or Robinson (God I hope that’s not the case) the possibility of Trent switching between the 2 and 3 will drastically increase as you said. Collin could then sit behind brea and learn some game from him and same with Trent sitting behind Otega. Trent doesn’t need to necessarily need to learn how to shoot like Otega, but if he can learn how to be quick and attack the basketball more effectively and increase his defense,I think we can develop these 3 freshman into amazing players in the coming years. Great video as always lance!

Lance - what do you think about this new philosophy: Cal on pod cast: Calipari told former Oregon State head coach Craig Robinson on Wednesday's episode of their podcast “Ways to Win” that he plans to only keep "eight or nine guys" with the Razorbacks to start the 2024-25 season. "They're leaving anyway, and why would I develop a kid for someone else? Why would I do that?" Calipari said. Calipari added that he wasn't the only college coach taking on the philosophy as transfer portal numbers swell. "I'm hearing a lot of guys are saying they are only going to have a roster of eight or nine guys," Calipari said.

@foxbat052 Ай бұрын

Lance, enjoy the comments. I am wondering if Pope dived into all the reasons BYU lost in the first round and how UCONN, NCSTATE etc advanced in the final 4? Is this UK roster built on the holes that were missed on the BYU team? Can this squad reach the final 8 or beyond? Go CATS

Cal is a good guy, a great salesman, an excellent recruiter but a mediocre coach. His X’s and O’s skills are outdated and he is too set in his ways. Mark Pope is an analytical genius and a great coach. He’s a superior coach to Cal. Mark Pope is going to be a two time legend at UK when he retires from coaching.

All the dribble drive is is lazy coaching.. just let players do their thing without setting picks or memorizing other players movements.

@@derekmiles9069 That's correct.. part of the problem is his main concern is managing everyone's minutes so that his players don't get their feelings hurt. Been a UK fan since 1984 and I never could understand what was going on while watching almost every Cal team. I like Cal as a person and do think his players love him and look at him as a father figure etc which Cal enjoys being.. but as far as doing what's best in any given game situation this always played second fiddle to letting his players "do their own thing" and "be who they want to be" he actually tells them this when recruiting them.

With Amari Williams only being 6’10 I would be interested in seeing if pope slid him over to the 4 and put Brandon at the 5. Obviously in very rare cases but it could be something I wouldn’t be surprised if it happened.

I agree with most of what you said but don’t say dealt with Cal for 15 years because he brought a championship back to Kentucky yeah it wasn’t his coaching but we also had 4 final 4s 8 elite 8s and he brought excitement back to Kentucky his first year there after the Billie G years. Yeah he’s a bad x and o coach and I’m happy he’s gone but I appreciate what he did the last 15 years. Really there were 2 bad years every other year we were relevant he underperformed some time but he also overachieved a couple times, he just couldn’t change with the game and he got to big for the state I won’t boo him but I will Arkansas
