After a whirlwind courtship, Tyler Herro just became the third member of Kentucky’s 2018 recruiting class. In a ceremony at his school, the four-star shooting guard picked the Cats over Kansas, Oregon, Wisconsin, and Villanova, signing his letter of intent on the spot.
After an impressive showing at a USA Basketball minicamp in early October, Herro decommited from home state Wisconsin on October 17. Nine days later, Kenny Payne reached out and on October 31, John Calipari offered him a scholarship. This past weekend, Herro took an official visit to Kentucky and, apparently, saw everything he needed to make it official.
