I’m going to guess that Stokes will also transfer there .

I like him a lot. Can get to the hole through defenders and can make off-balance shots off the bounce that are almost impossible to stop.
Im guessing/hoping he's also one of the kids who re-classifies to 25.

Playing in Kentucky This Season
The good news for Kentucky fans is that Big Blue Nation have the chance to watch AJ Dybantsa and Utah Prep several times during the 2024-25 season. Playing in the Grind Session, Utah Prep participates in the Grind Session Bluegrass Signature Series which features events in Calloway County (Dec. 5-9), Christian County (Dec. 12-14), Louisville (Jan. 2-4), and Paducah (Jan. 9-12).

Jeepers, that is a lot of games in kentucky. If I were a Dukie or a uconn fan I would not like this news. I wonder if pope had anything to do with steering him there. I wouldn't think our coaches have had enough time on the job to engineer this.
His age has been changed a few times, so I think most should be skeptical of his age.
Then there's the selection committee led by Purdue's Matt Painter and also including TCU's Jamie Dixon and Yale's James Jones among others. Beyond the coaches instructing the players, college coaches are also permitted to attend and evaluate. That brought out the likes of Kansas' Bill Self, Kentucky's Mark Pope, Iowa's Fran McCaffery, and roughly 20 others. - 247
Kentuckians Moreno and Johnson are finalists.
It’s an interesting guy for an 18 year old to look up to with Manu. I’m not sure of their relationship, but Coach Hart did overlap with Manu in SA for a season.
Speaking of Stokes.
We need to get Moreno and Johnson. Hope we can get someone like Easter or Acuff. I’ve seen we have made inroads on some of them lately. Love to have a shot at Dybantsa but he will be a tough one to get.Brooks flying out to Colorado today to watch UK targets at the USA U18 camp.
There are lots of point guards and combos in this class. Very deep. Gotta like the fact that Easter's dad said, "We’ve been watching Kentucky our whole life. We love Kentucky. Derek Anderson went there. Jerry works out with Derek Anderson.”
Kentucky’s Mark Pope was also in attendance for the event, bringing his complete staff with him to Colorado Springs with assistant coach Mark Fox serving as an advisor, as well.
Interesting.

“Duke, Florida, Miami, Michigan, Arkansas is in there,” he said. “Kentucky might get in there a little bit, those are the main schools. And UNC also.”
Jasper Johnson on Pope, one of seven current NCAA Division I men’s basketball head coaches who won a Division I national title as a player.
But Johnson, as well as other top college basketball recruits, clearly see value in Pope having been there and done that as a player at UK. This aspect of Pope’s profile should also be of particular appeal to Johnson, given that his father (former Harrodsburg, UK and NFL football player Dennis Johnson) also formerly wore blue and white with distinction. “He’s been there, really hearing his message and putting it into my game and stuff like that,” Johnson added about the advantages that come with having a college coach with championship pedigree as a player. “It’s always a good thing having a coach that played the game.”

Johnson is a must get. The Boozers would be nice, but I doubt we have a real shot.
I don’t feel good about the quotes from the Boozers at all .
But I never expected them anyway . I will still be shocked if it’s not Duke
Moreno didn't survive the Final Cut but Johnson did.
