April 28, 201313 yr Thought it was time to get this thread started. Labissiere now joins phenom Karl Towns as the only members of the 2015 class to hold an offer from the Cats. Skal is currently the sixth ranked sophomore according to ESPN and the third best center, behind Towns. Skal currently runs 6-9, 200 lbs but at only 16 there is certainly time to grow. Found this article on Skal Labissiere that UK has already offered. Very interesting article. For Skal Labissiere, there's no time to lose. He's been in America for fewer than 18 months, and his list of accomplishments is staggering. He's learned English and won a state championship, all while establishing himself as one of the nation's top basketball prospects in the Class of 2015. Why the urgency? Because he knows better than most never to take a single day for granted. Rise Above: Skal Labissiere survived 2010 Haiti earthquake - ESPNHS

July 3, 201313 yr Author The new rankings are out for the 2015 class. One I have been watching for a long time is Luke Kennard. Ranked #18 overall and #4 at his position. UK is recruiting him but has not offered yet. Hope they do. Here is the link: Scout.com: Men's Basketball Recruiting
July 11, 201313 yr Author Another player to watch for in the 2015 class: http://kentucky.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=1523998 Bragg said like he could fit into Kentucky's style of play. He's 6-foot-9 with a wiry frame that could use more than the 205 pounds currently on it. He has a multi-dimensional game, able to play inside and out. He showcased both in his opening game, converting post moves such as a turnaround bank shot from the elbow and perimeter moves such as a drive down the lane with a spinning layup to finish. "It's a good luxury to have," Anthony Stacey, his AAU assistant coach, said of having both inside and outside skills. And his demeanor fits what coach John Calipari tends to look for in a prospect. "He's got an unbelievable motor, and it's like that no matter who we play," Stacey said. "He's got that competitive juice of a Kevin Garnett that you really like to see."
