To the news…….
(1) Spending the weekend in Brooklyn saw me walking the streets of Ramel Bradley and attending services at the wonderful Brooklyn Tabernacle. However I also apparently missed a host of news on the recruiting circuit. The most interesting to me, and the news to watch as the week progresses is the pending visit of Willie Warren and Rotnei Clarke to UK. This electric combo, sharpshooter Clarke and dunker extraordinare Warren, are two of my favorite players in the class and two guys that UK fans should want to see in Blue. I think Clarke is the type of player any championship team must have and Warren has all-world talent, along with a healthy, but not mean, ego. Warren told the Kansas Rivals.com site today that he wants to go to the same school as Rotnei, which means that the alleged package deal (which almost never comes to fruition) could be in place here. If UK can lock these two guys down, watch out…..it would be a BIG day for the future of the program.
(2) I am hearing that there could be as many as five 2009 visits in the next few weeks by players to UK's campus. We hope to get those names for you soon, but what is amazing is just how committed UK is to getting guys on campus early, and impressions made at an early age. That is how you win the recruiting battles…..and it will continue to happen under Billy Clyde.
