According to MJ

Get back in here, idiots. Idk why they let us out of our cage. That's messed up. Let's just keep it all together for The Cats and get focused on our tournament run. Amen.

Kentucky Football Hosting More Official Visitors as Dead Period Looms

super impressive WR Jeffar Jean Noel who recently decommited from WVU. Widely expected to commit to Purdue, but giving UK a shot today before making his decision.

These are the main big opponents. Several small schools as well but left off this list.

Purdue Exhib
Georgetown Exhib
Gonzaga
Indiana
Louisville
St Johns
North Carolina
Michigan State

Kendrick Law seems to be the comparison the coaching staff has settled on in communication with Jean.

Committed earlier this month.

What was the thought process on deleting the thread that chronicled the entire Covid fiasco?

I wonder how many other consolidated years long records like that exist on the internet.

Glenn Fohr back in 87?

KSR has a picture of both Denzel and Kam jumping so high; I was like OMG. They were touching the vertical tiles above the backboard. If anyone know how to post the pictures that would be great.

I believe we have a serious team that should win 30 plus games this year.

The top instate defensive prospect just decommited from UL. From those in the know, he tried to jerk UL around on NIL. He officially visited Purdue after he commited to UL and came back demanding a better NIL deal. UL cut bait. Does UK attempt to move on this guy?

We mentioned before that Archbishop Moeller quarterback Matt Ponatoski had a very high interest level in Kentucky when he visited this spring. At the time Alabama and Oregon were not as involved as they had become.

Ponatoski has UK in his top four and I can confirm he is supposed to be visiting again.

Probably the top QB on the board along with Oscar Rios, who has also visited.

Wants to play both sports in college and it seems like UK is giving him a good opportunity to do that. The football side of the recruitment has been strong and I think the baseball side has come along to a point where the two-sport angle at Kentucky is a definite asset in their pursuit of Ponatoski.

Have also heard that there are some influential folks up that way who would love to see him at Kentucky.

And, if he were to commit before his senior season, I'm hearing the NIL piece could be VERY strong for him.

I just met a former Tulane football player. Won't mention his name because of what we talked about but he was a starter on last year's team and just graduated. I told him I was a Kentucky fan and loved Sumrall. I told him I watched most of Tulane's games last season because of Sumrall and recounted a huge play he had made in one of the games I watched. He talked glowingly about his experience playing for Sumrall. And then he said, "you didn't hear this from me but rumors around Tulane say Sumrall is heading to Kentucky after next season." Just thought it was interesting and worth sharing that the Sumrall to Kentucky stuff isn't just wishful thinking and drubbed up by our fans. Even Tulane's locker room fully expects it to happen.

Original participants was over 30 cut to 18 today. Still have the final cut of 12 that will make the team.

Mikel Brown Jr, Chris Cenac Jr, Christian Collins, Jason Crowe Jr, A.J. Dybantsa, Caleb Holt, Daniel Jacobsen, Jasper Johnson, J.J. Mandaquit, Morez Johnson Jr, Nik Khamenia, Brandon McCoy Jr, Royce Parham, Koa Peat, Tyrone Riley IV. Deron Rippey Jr, Tyran Stokes, and Elijah Williams.

Malachi Moreno did not make the cut. Neither did Tajh Ariza, Taylen Kinney or Jordan Smith who all have UK offers. Smith has been dealing with an injury.

Jasper Johnson will be a freshman at UK next season. Collins, Crowe, Holt, McCoy, Rippey, and Stokes have offers. Mark Pope is an assistant coach.

KSR pimping it out on X. Who is it?

Here are the players we can confirm so far that have heard from the coaches.

No. 1 - C.J. Rosser, 6-10, Rocky Mount, North Carolina
No .3- Baba Oladotun, 6-9, Silver Spring, Maryland
No. 7- Tyrone Jamison, 6-2, Shreveport, Louisiana
No. 12 - Martay Barnes, 6-2. Kissimmee, Florida
No. 15 - Obinna Ekezie Jr. 6-11, Napa, California
No.22 - King Gibson, 6-5, Greensboro, North Carolina
No. 24- Bruce Branch, 6-7, Gilbert Arizona

Do you know enough about Paulo Semedo (ranked #50 on ESPN) to compare him to Malachi Moreno and other bigs in the 2025 class? Is he a player that compares to WCS, at the same stage, as I have heard Arkansas fans claim?

Said the obvious. Losing Marrow takes away 50% of dead weight because things have changed and hot air doesn't cut it anymore. Also said the only path forward is Jon Sumrall. Great call.
