who started that rumor about Hawkins? I havent seen ANYTHING AT ALL ABOUT IT..
For best newcomer Im gonna go with Barbour.. He seems to be a very good player and a great team player. He may not come in and bring 15 points a game but he will be solid for us IMO

I would like to extend a warm welcome to all new members as well.:cool:
As for Newcomer of the Year
IMO it's a toss up between Barbour and Azubuike with the edge going to Barbour. Barbour has had JUCO as well as WUG experience. He was good enough to play along side of Baxter and Dixon last summer for the USA.
Azubuike has the skills but I won't rush to judgement until I see him play against D1 talent.

I'd like to welcome all our new members as well! Great to see you here, Supersport, kj, locukfan! As for the topic at hand, my head says give the nod to Barbour, simply because he does have some collegiate experience, albeit at the JUCO level. My heart, however, says 'Buke has the potential to be a monster player. Just this once, I will listen to my logic and say Barbour will be our impact man....subject to change at any point during the season!

I will have to go with Barbour also. I like what i have seen so far of Az, but have been following Barbour quite awhile and he has the tools!

I think the newcomer of the year is going to be Azubuike..I have heard so much good stuff about him and I hope it will all be the same when he is wearing that UK jersey this year!

If Tubby lets Azubuike loose he'll be Freshman of the year in the SEC. ED ;D

I wanted to comment on if Hawkins is an Academic casualty. I dont think Tubby will rely to much with the Freshman Stockton when Fitch and Barbour is capable to play the Point. ED 8)

I hope the BIGGEST TEAM player next season is Rock Oliver, if Tubby has enough sense to hire him. Talk about getting these kids ready to play.
