A new recruiting period starts Thursday. Who will Calipari and UK’s coaches be meeting? | Lexington Herald Leader

While the wait continues for several Kentucky basketball players and their stay-or-go decisions regarding where they’ll play next season, the UK coaching staff will be back on the road this week in hopes of recruiting more future Wildcats.

Following a brief recruiting “dead period” that coincided with Final Four weekend, college coaches will once again be permitted to meet with prospective recruits starting Thursday at noon, and UK already has some plans in place.

John Calipari and assistant coach Tony Barbee are scheduled to see Memphis-area standout D.J. Jeffries on Saturday, the player’s father, Corey Jeffries, told the Herald-Leader.
