Recapping recent basketball recruiting developments

John Calipari tweeted a picture of Mt. Rainier on Thursday evening and unless he’s taking a vacation to the Pacific Northwest it likely means he was heading to an in-home visit with Jaden McDaniels. It also appears Kentucky will meet with Keion Brooks this weekend, too. These are two names that were close to fan favorites in the spring or the beginning of summer, but haven’t been discussed with UK’s 2019 recruiting efforts over the last couple months.

So, what’s going on?

This seems like a somewhat bizarre development for Kentucky’s staff. UK has added Kahlil Whitney and Dontaie Allen last month and that seemed like it would end Kentucky’s chances with Brooks and McDaniels.
