Recruiting is no easy task, even when it comes to the Kentucky Wildcats.
Even with John Calipari having UK at least in the discussion for just about every major recruit, that in turn presents the issue of Cal having to decide which guys he wants among so many talented players. In 2017, that includes a loaded crop of elite wing prospects, one of which being five-star forward Kris Wilkes.
Despite UK once appearing to be his favorite, Wilkes is no longer considering the Cats after releasing his latest list.
As you'll see, North Carolina, Arizona, Butler, UCLA, UConn, Michigan, Indiana, Ohio State, Illinois, Washington and Xavier made the cut, but not UK.
