I think Mika is going to surprise a lot of folks. I don't like byu or lone peak, but that Mika kid is tuff.

What I said was meant to be a compliment, actually. I like Mika and have actually spoken with Orlando Antigua about him (who has seen him play in person).
Antigua really liked him and it's no slight to say UK wasn't interested in extending a schollie, but Orlando said the same thing as HeyHey.. he'll shock some people.

What I have seen doesn't scream NBA player, but very good college player in a couple years.

Looked into Vaughn and my very good source said he's a heavy UK/UNC lean right now.

Is your source a Kentucky alum with money? Or are you the alum with the briefcase full of money?

I have dozens of very good sources. This one is a beat writer in Minnesota that has remained close to the Vaughn family the past couple years.

Love the kid's game. He's definitely on the radar. He's also said, privately, that he hasn't been feeling a lot of Kentucky. I think he's a 2nd or 3rd option right now.

Have only seen this highlight video of him, but he reminds me of Beasley

He's a high priority for UK next year.

Love his game.

Does Dala read this thread? I have a player prospect for him.

Unsure why I am the least bit excited about it.. but DX is unveiling their first '15 mock draft in September.

What's your first impressions?

Good first mock. I like it pretty well. No major gripes.
