Friday Headlines: Kentucky Contacting 2025 Recruits

The direct contact period has opened for Kentucky basketball and recruits in the 2025 class. Head coach John Calipari and his staff can now reach out directly to the athletes in their recruitment to land members of the class to play for Kentucky basketball.

But just because the window is now open doesn’t mean Kentucky hasn’t already made offers to multiple targets in the class. In fact, Kentucky has made offers to seven players including Cameron Boozer, Cayden Boozer, Darius Acuff Jr., Darryn Peterson, Jasper Johnson, Koa Peat and Meleek Thomas. Calipari has relayed his interest through those around these players (coaches/family) but can now recruit one-on-one with them as well as their fellow classmates in the 2025 recruiting class.
