Terrence Jones is a CAT


The wait is over. The amazing Terrence Jones from Portland, Oregon signed with UK this evening. John Calipari never ceases to amaze me. The guy is awesome. Four 5-star recruits, and two 4 stars. ARE YOU KIDDING? THIS COMMITMENT SEALS THE FACT THAT KENTUCKY WILL ONCE AGAIN HAVE THE #1 RECRUITING CLASS FOR THE SECOND STRAIGHT YEAR.

Ladies and gentleman, your 2010 class:

Enes Kanter - 5 star
Brandon Knight - 5 star
Doron Lamb - 5 star
Terrence Jones - 5 star
Stacey Poole - 4 star
Eloy Vargas - 4 star

Washington Wizards Win NBA Lottery

They were in the fifth spot, but the balls bounced their way...as they win the draft lottery, and presumably the rights to the nation's top PG, John Wall.

#1 Washington
#2 Philadelphia
#3 New Jersey
#4 Minnesota
#5 Sacramento
#6 Golden State
#7 Detroit
#8 LA Clippers
#9 Utah
#10 Indiana
#11 New Orleans
#12 Memphis
#13 Toronto
#14 Houston

Eloy Vargas Commits to Kentucky


He was rated #26 by Rivals.com in the class of 2008. This REALLY helps fill Patterson's spot. Kentucky's recruiting class will likely be #1 AGAIN, for the 2nd straight year.

UK Recruiting News Links

It's been a hard-to-keep-up-with few weeks in Kentucky Basketball recruiting, so let me give you some info on past events.

CJ Leslie committed to North Carolina State on April 28th.

Terrence Jones, rated #13 overall by Rivals.com, committed to Washington on April 30th. But in a strange turn of events, Jones didn't sign his LOI but instead had a fifteen minute phone call conversation with Coach Calipari minutes after commiting to Washington.

Kentucky lost out on Josh Selby, who committed to Kansas.

Enes Kanter moves up to third overall spot in Rival's 150, and Brandon Knight slides to #6.

Kentucky misses out on Cory Joseph, who committed to Texas.
