Isaiah Jackson lands safely at UK

It’s all systems go for the 2020-21 Kentucky Wildcats as Isaiah Jackson became the final piece of the puzzle to land safely in Lexington on Saturday. Jackson and company are now all moved into the Wildcat Coal Lodge and officially begin practice on Monday.

Jackson, a 6-9 forward from Michigan, was originally supposed to be on campus over the July 4th weekend, but was delayed for undisclosed reasons. Most of the newcomers arrived at the end of June and have been in a “tight bubble” according to UK Coach John Calipari who recently said that players have been scheduling times for weight training, conditioning and individual shooting as part of new safety precautions for COVID-19.
