All of the focus on Kentucky recruiting may be on which big men John Calipari will land in 2019, but he’s already hard at work in the backcourt for 2020.
According to Jason Jordan, Kentucky is among the school’s coming the hardest after Anthony Edwards. Also in hot pursuit are the North Carolina Tar Heels, Michigan State Spartans, Duke Blue Devils and Kansas Jayhawks.
That’s a heck of a list, and it only begins to speak to how good of a player Edwards is. All three major recruiting services have Edwards ranked top five overall in 2020, included second overall by 247 Sports.
