EXIT ALERT: Bearcats’ Star Viktor Lakhin to Enter Transfer Portal After Battle with Injuries | Fan Recap

Nice move Lakhin. If he ends up with a program that has an NCAA Tournament pedigree or a great coaching staff, maybe he should give college ball one last shot. What do you all think? If he has a monster season, it really could help his chances at getting an NBA invite or maybe getting to the G-League. You never know.

[leeraymond]

Viktor Lakhin has a new Instagram post with a thank you and goodbye to UC. Seems to be heading home/overseas.

He also posted a story saying one day he’ll make a Netflix special at Fifth Third and said “Don’t boo me then” with a wink emoji.

THANK YOU VIK!

Lakhin represents the very last member associated with the Brannen era. Too bad what happened to him his last year. UC did NOT get all of the potential out of that guy. I hate to see him leave the way that he did. Anyway, go get them Lakhin. By the way, he has his DEGREE and that is a very good thing. Good luck to you Vik.

Came here to day this:

Keep this thread contained to UC players headed out.

For possible incoming players use the portal thread in Basketball Recruiting please.

For NCAA team roster discussion, use the NCAA Tournament thread.

Hey Labot: I am just reading this message on 4/2/24 at 10:38 am. I responded to Sedz concerning something that had little to do with potential UC players heading out after you posted your message yesterday.

are you saying Vik is open to the best bid?

I am not, seeing that I am not sure how that would work with an international student-athlete...

As discussed above, Viktor Lakhin is moving on. While it seemed like he would be going overseas, he has still gone ahead and hit the portal.

I’m not sure local hero is applicable. Don’t remember
him tearing it up in high school. Could be wrong tho.

Talking about Sage - he had a lot of hype due to height.

[bearcatjd]

I wish him all the best in the future & he left with a positive good bye. A real class act for sure!

I too was expecting giant steps in Vik's development going into our inaugural year of big12 bball. It's a mystery as to what exactly occured to this past season, but I will always consider Vik to be a bearcat. I wish him well, and I hope he finds everything he wants in the way of success in the next chapter of his career. Good luck Vik

[sedz]

Even with his late season struggles, Vik ended the season as our leader in box plus minus. He was also our best player last year. He was undoubtedly a major building block to start the Wes Miller era.

Vic made great contributions during his time at UC. I’m not sure what happened this year but he was poised to have an incredible Jr year, 17 pt 8 rb average type year, and it didn’t happen. Season changing aspect of what I found to be an underachieving (with cause for concern going forward) year. Had Vic’s development occurred as expected? Who knows.

[UC4me]

You are wrong to think so.

I appreciate your straightforward answer. I trust your knowledge of this. My friends and I got frustrated by the lack of Bearcat representation by his dad, but that is a silly thing to get grumbly about.
