Jay Bilas brought his colleague Paul Biancardi on today’s show to discuss Kentucky’s incoming freshmen, specifically, all those guards. Here’s what ESPN’s recruiting analyst had to say about Immanuel Quickley, Tyler Herro, and Ashton Hagans, who will share the backcourt with sophomores Quade Green and Jemarl Baker this fall.

“[Immanuel] Quickley is a high IQ point guard. Not a great athlete, but he’s really fluid, he makes open shots, he’s steady and he’s consistent. That’s what I like most about him. He’s going to bring it every day. He doesn’t wow you with athleticism, he doesn’t create a lot of space for himself to get shots.
