Not a lot of excitement about this pick up from what I can gather but if Pope and the new coaching staff cared enough to all fly out to Las Vegas together to sign this guy it's ok with me. Afterall, Pope's method of building a roster is about fit not how many stars the player has by their name.

Proven high major defender…had the same offensive stats as DJ Wagner and Davion Mintz….except he is exponentially better as a defensive player…everyone has a role….his isn’t to be the leading scorer…Frankly not concerned about what the internet experts think…. |

BUILD a TEAM---each with a priority and ablity to fill a role.
Shooters--YES
BIGGUNS--YES
defenders--YES YES
enablers--YES
TEAM--YES--YES--YES
Satisfied and prepared--YES--YES--YES--YES
time to think TEAM--not player

Exact;y right rr - the TEAM is much more important than any individual player - it's what got Donut in trouble a lot - his "players" would have off nights and there wasn't anyone to pick up the slack. With a TEAM, no one player having a bad night will tank the game - there is always someone ready to fill in when needed. Like the approach. Good things headed our way. Go Cats!

A lot of fans are hung up on stars. We have been getting all of these 5 stars for years now and all it proved was you can not build a team on 5 stars. We won one in 2012 and that was under circumstances that may never be duplicated by Calipari again.
Lamont Butler, Jr has been to a Final Four as a contributor. He started. He is a lock down defender, some say in the mold of Liggins. If he is anything close to that as a defender, I want him.
Coach Pope understands building a team. He is building it before our very eyes and good things will result. I am 100% on board. This is an excellent signee and will serve a purpose. He will be ready to play from day one.

Those folks have Trump Derangement syndrome and Calipari Stockholm Syndrome. |

Really needed Small or Devion Smith at PG. Yes he's a good ball defender but there was 3 really good pgs on board. Then agsin cant put a price on experience an he has it.
Strange rumor is Wagner might want to return . Can't see it really tho but he's not going back to Cal if Cal adds Davis.
