It appears to be an Auburn and Kentucky battle for the top-200 safety. The Wildcats have all of the late buzz and enter the decision as the leader. Martels Carter will be the first defensive recruit for Kentucky in the 2025 cycle and will be a big one. Carter would give the program the...

Scratch one off the list for Mark Pope in what was trending as the likely outcome for North Florida star Chaz Lanier, who announced his commitment to Tennessee on Friday. He chooses the Volunteers over Kentucky and BYU after taking officials to all three programs, ultimately picking the home-state program as a native of Nashville. Lanier graded out as one of the most efficient scorers in college basketball this past season, an absolute deadeye shooter out to NBA range. The issue, though, is he comes from the ASUN, widely considered one of the weakest conferences in the nation. How will his pro...

Nate Bargatze is one of the funniest and most popular comedians in the world right now, recently wrapping up a tour stop in Lexington with a packed crowd inside Rupp Arena. Among attendees? None other than Kentucky head coach Mark Pope and guard signee Kerr Kriisa, who caught up with Bargatze at the Joe Craft Center before the show on May 10. “(Nate Bargatze) not only funny…but got mad game!” Pope said at the time. “So cool to have him get loose at Joe Craft Center today…before he brings down the house (at Rupp Arena) tonight!!” A few short weeks later, Bargatze shared a behind-the-scenes look...

CJ Fredrick is a college basketball journeyman whose journey is seemingly never-ending. Just when you thought he was done, he is getting pulled back in for one more year of college hoops. Jon Rothstein reports Fredrick will return to Cincinnati for his final season of eligibility in 2024-25.

That was the same year Zion Williamson was the most coveted high school basketball prospect in the country. There’s no doubt that CJ Fredrick will trend at some point on Twitter during the colle...

Mark Pope is in a comfortable, yet tricky position as he looks to close out his debut roster in Lexington. On one hand, Kentucky has built out a dynamite core group that is loaded with talented system fits from top to bottom, 11 players who bring something unique to the table while positively impacting winning. You’ve got shooters, facilitators, defenders, size, athleticism and experience, a unit capable of competing in the SEC as currently constructed — it’s already deeper and more talented than the BYU roster that finished fifth in the Big 12 last season, a conference that tied the SEC for f...

Tounde Yessoufou can’t tell his basketball story without including the Kentucky Wildcats. A native of Benin in West Africa, the top-20 prospect in the class of 2025 started playing basketball when he was 10 years old, sparking his move to the United States to pursue his dream of doing it professionally. He arrived shortly before his freshman year at St. Joseph High School in Santa Maria, California just three years ago with his eyes on Lexington. “Nobody in my family ever played basketball, I just saw it and loved it,” the 6-6 forward said. “I knew I wanted to put my heart into it.
