Wednesday Quickies: RJ Hampton Reclassification Edition

Kentucky is in the hunt for one of the best high school basketball players in the country, but he’s planning to enroll in college a year earlier than originally thought.

Kentucky has been after RJ Hampton for a while, but amidst a heavy amount of rumors that have been swirling, Hampton announced he would be making the jump from the Class of 2020 to the Class of 2019.

In the process, he cut his list to four schools, knocking Duke out in the process (a team that was once thought to be the leader) and replaced them with in-state Texas Tech.
