John Calipari is back on the recruiting trail. According to Jake Weingarten, Cal is in New Jersey today to see five-star forward Jonathan Kuminga, the No. 1 player in the 2021 class who is considering reclassifying to 2020.
Calipari and his staff have visited the 6’8″ 205 lbs. St. Patrick star several times over the past few months. Auburn’s Bruce Pearl, Nebraska’s Fred Hoiberg, and LSU’s Will Wade have also prioritized Kuminga this fall, while Duke has shown interest. Many see the Blue Devils as the favorite, but our own Jack Pilgrim said earlier this month that is not the case.
