Kentucky's Recruiting Big Board

I am still going with Quickley, Barrett or Reddish, Zion, King, and Bol.

Even though a part of me thinks Cal is doing everything possible to land all 3 of Barrett, Reddish, and Zion while knowing Quickley, and King are basically locks as long with one if Moses or Bol.

A 5 (or 6 if miracles can happen) player class to join Quade, SKJ, Shai, Jemarl, Tai, and 1-2 of WG/PJ/JV/NR.
 
If Cal decided to make either Moses, Shittu, Bol, or Reid his big man, like he has already done with Quickley at PG, they'd be a lock along with Quickley and King. I legitimately think he has his pick of those 4 bigs. I might actually prefer Shittu over the rest right now when looking at how the team would 've built.
 
Quade, Quickley, Barrett, Reddish, Zion, Shittu, King, Shai, SKJ, Jemarl, and 1-2 of WG/PJ/JV/NR would probably be the greatest team assembled in the modern era.

No hyperbole in that statement at all.

Calipari is so good at this. We'll get 6 from that very nice list.

King hasn't gotten a offer right? I feel like he might just move on.

Maybe.

But it's early and it's highly unlikely that UK gets Barrett and Reddish. King just has to wait if he wants UK.

Most likely, there will eventually be an offer, once Spring rolls around. And he is good, so it's not like he won't sign with another high profile school in the Spring if UK doesn't offer.

Waiting on UK is the smart move to make. He can choose every other school on his list and they would take him in a heartbeat.
 
I want Zion just for the highlights and attention he will being to the program. He's one of those guys you just want to see what crazy athletic play he is going to do next.

That's a wish list. It won't be our actual class. I think Calipari signs 4-5 this year. We will obviously get Quickly. We might get Williamson too, pretty good chance of that happening. We have a decent shot to sign Reddish but it's too early to know what Reddish will do. Barrett just reclassified, and nobody has any idea what he will eventually decide. King doesn't have a UK offer, and his mother said they are moving on. That isn't surprising since Calipari has apparently prioritized Reddish, Barrett, Williamson for the 2 wing positions. After that, I think Calipari is still evaluating talent and figuring out which bigs to go after the hardest. It looks like Bol may stay out west. I would be surprised if we land Bol or Brown at UK. Shittu looks more likely, but still way too early there.

Blue Decade, you realize this was a thread discussing what our big board could possibly be.

So, yeah. Posting my wish list seemed appropriate. Sorry?
