Call me a little biased, but does this sound familiar when quoted from the article?? The question was asked what he's looking for.

"A coach that really keeps in touch with me, really cares for me and makes me feel comfortable," said Tandy. "I want to be comfortable and make it feel like home."
Prohm has thrived when given the opportunity to create significant relationships. This can only be seen as a big positive for us.

I think a Kentucky offer would end things, Louisville offer we have a small chance.

I wouldn't say that at this point, just too early in the process. Player and relationships can be developed and pay off in the end. Many players would say Kentucky is their dream school at this point due to the name, facilities, and being the state school but once they do their visits decide on a different college to thrive in. Many thought ISU would be out on THT when he got his Mich St. offer as their were rumors it was his dream school at the time.

His dad on Louisville:
“They’re involved,” he said, “but I don’t know what they’re going to be able to do with all the [FBI investigation and potential NCAA sanctions] going on. I haven’t talked to them in a while.”

His dad on Kentucky:
“If they come with the offer, they come with the offer,” Torian told SEC Country on Saturday after his son’s game on the Under Armour AAU circuit. “If he does get an offer, he’s not going to Kentucky with three or four point guards there. He’s not no bench player. And that’s what they think he is: He’ll just come in and play four years. No, no.”

“My whole family is Wildcats. We’re all Wildcats,” Torian said. “We don’t want him to leave the state. I would like to keep him at home. Wouldn’t you? But I look at it like this: If it doesn’t happen, he’s got some good options. Got some good schools looking at him.”

Geez. Even his dad thinks he's a bench player.

People are upset with KyKy's father for those comments? I just read that as don't assume my son is just saying local. Both UK and U of L will have to prioritize him and define his role. I think those are fair expectations otherwise he could go to a situation where he is recruited over and will need to transfer to find that role. Seems reasonable if his early talk with both schools wouldn't commit to KyKy.

I'm sure some Kentucky fans feel like any kid they want should automatically want to be there, regardless of the roster scenarios.

Adding to his Dad's point UK just offered 5 star PG Locque. It appears Cal is after the 5 star guards first and not prioritizing KyKy as of today.

@RowlandRIVALS Yesterday Kentucky offered five-star point guard Jalen Lecque, the No. 9 prospect in the 2019 class. Here's a bunch of info on him from the hectic last couple of weeks (FREE)
