Outside of Simmons, 1 Maybe 2 of our players are good enough to get drafted. SIX, yes, SIX of those kentucky wildcats got drafted. And Wiltjer is still an all-american at Gonzaga. Not saying we aren't talented but a comparison to 2012 Kentucky is absolutely ignorant

We don't have six, but we absolutely have 3 potential 1st rounders in Simmons, Blakeney, and Quartermann, along with some good players around them. Also, many of the traditional powers lost players to the NBA (Kentucky) and coaches (Florida). It could be the recipe for a school like LSU to make a run this year. We definitely have weaknesses but so does everyone else. I'm not expecting Final Four, but I wouldn't be shocked if we made a serious run at it.

Edit: I didn't see the post above mine when I wrote this, so sorry if it sounds redundant.
