National basketball analysts are much more confident in the Kentucky Wildcats going into the 2021-22 season following the addition of 2021 five-star guard TyTy Washington.
Washington, listed as the No. 11 overall prospect in the senior class by Rivals.com, signed with the program on May 12. Since then, the likes of Jeff Goodman (Stadium), Gary Parrish (CBS Sports) and Jon Rothstein (College Hoops Today) have all moved the Wildcats up in their respective way-too-early preseason rankings.
Goodman – yes, that Goodman – moved Kentucky all the way up to No. 11 overall following Washington’s addition.
