John Calipari is failing Kentucky basketball in the transfer portal

Locked On Kentucky - Daily Podcast On Kentucky Wildcats Football & Basketball

John Calipari has once again missed on a big transfer portal prospect... he and the staff are failing Kentucky basketball right now.

San Diego State transfer Keshad Johnson is expected to choose Arizona over the Kentucky Wildcats on Saturday, marking yet another transfer portal player that Coach Cal has yet to land. What is going on with the Wildcats? Why can't they secure players? Right now, the roster is sitting at eight scholarship players, one of which is a walk-on and five of which are freshmen. How is Cal going to manage the lineup if the team has injuries like they did a season ago? What's the gameplan here with Rob Dillingham, DJ Wagner, Justin Edwards and Aaron Bradshaw? Are we all just waiting for Oscar Tshiebwe to return? What happens if he doesn't? The Kentucky Wildcats are setting themselves up for failure with the way they are utilizing the portal... and if expectations aren't met this season... fans are going to start pushing back.

Four-star quarterback Cutter Boley has committed to the Wildcats. Dawe discusses what this means for Mark Stoops and the football program.
