his my friend no joke im not bsing he is my friend he was my grandparents next door neighbors in oklahoma city and i was his older brother friends who went to sweet sixteen with oklahoma state
i guess no one seen em miss the dunk oh well he still goes hard 4 Freakn dat backboard nd yea hez goin to kentucky along wit john wall and Xavier henry.....#1
sucks for ya cats that he aint goin to kentucky anymore....asked for his release from his letter of intent......can you say oklahoma here comes orton!
It's so funny how UK fans were bragging a few days ago about how they were going to have all these great recuits and now it looks they won't even get any, including Daniel Orton!
As of today, Daniel and his father have said He is staying. Obviously this isnt the final answer, but if he left it would only be because we got a better player in his same position. So yeah, i think UK will be alright.
GO Cats!!! Orton will help bring the cats back to a respectable position on the national stage. Hopefully ESPN will stop dogging UK and that means you Mr. Vitale!
i love this kid. shatters a backboard and just walks off the court emotionless. no boasting at all. he is going to make one helluva wildcat. damn i can't wait
Cats plus Orten plus Meeks plus Patterson plus a host of solid players...plus Big Blue Nation = number 8!!! and more to come...the greatest program in history simply reloads from year to year
I watched him play this weekend at the open gym at UK. WOW. He's really good. Uk will be solid this year but look out next year. they'll be blowing out a lot of teams.
Again with the blue beverage? Orton went to big blue madness and loved it. He said out of his mouth thatthe fans sealed the deal. He didn't say that KU pulling their offer sealed the deal. Maybe he drank a blue beverage at Rupp... I dont know. (Again, I dont get the blue koolaid thing)All I know is UK has 7 championships and leads the nation in all-time wins. We are being fans of our team just like anyone else. Also, why is a fan of another team on a UK players blog? Worried much?
blantonj88 you're a complete tool. Apparently you don't follow college basketball very much if you say KY has a team full of untalented players. Orton was UK's to lose and in no way did KU have him in the bag. KY has the most passionate fans around and I'm sure that helped in the recruitment. Wait til the 2009-2010 season then come back and tell me how untalented they are. Again, you're a moron.
Stop drinking so much blue koolaid! Kentucky is not the premier program in college basketball! Orton had KU and UK and KU pulled the scholarship. If they wouldnt have then he would be KU bound, would you be calling KU the premier college basketball program then? No. He's going to UK because he will be on national t.v. and he KNOWS he will be a starter and put in the same situation as PP and that is a star on a team full of untalented players where he will standout and go to the NBA just like PP.
i would love to have him at ku but the thang is he likes ku alot but at ku you have to do more than play in the paint so his style dont fit ku up and down play.. why everyone sayin kentucky there coach learn to coach from self at ku he was the assit there so they play the same game so would it be kentucky
dude he has to play at uk, if we have john wall, lance stephenson, daniel orton, that will be unstoppable plus patrick patterosn, daruis miller, Deandre Liggins, Jodie Meeks, Perry Stevensen and Ramon Harris
This would have been sweeter if the dunk would have went through the cylinder. That was a weak foul. I hope to see him at UK but Thad Matta will be performing his "magic" as well on his end.
Kentucky needs to get Patrick Patterson some help underneath. Orton said the other day that UK is his new #1, and his father said that if it were his decision, Orton would be a Cat TODAY. I say Daniel Orton is a Wildcat
Why is it that Kentucky is your leader at this point?
I mean its just a crazy place for basketball. When I went to their Elite Camp, I flew in and got there really late because there was a flight delay. So I got to the hotel at like 3 a.m. and then the next day when I got up, I walked in the lobby and there were these fans there who knew who I was and said to come to Kentucky. I mean that is just crazy. They have such great fans.
bet he doesnt go to florida. way too many front court players for that to happen. he is going to want major playin time right away. he says all schools are even right now. if i had to bet. i would bet it coming down to uk vs ohio state.
