GOOD NEW’S: He’s Back Announcing Rejoining The Team With Full Commitment Mark pope Announcement….
Recruiting never stops, even on the day before Jasper Johnson’s commitment announcement on Thursday afternoon.
Kentucky Wildcats head coach Mark Pope and three assistants were in for class of 2025 forward Caleb Wilson at his home gym at Holy Innocents in Atlanta.
This is notable because Wilson is slated for an official visit to Lexington next week, and Kentucky is in decent shape with the top-10 prospect out of Georgia.
Wilson is scheduled for an official visit to Alabama this weekend and has one scheduled at Auburn for October 27th.
Among other teams and coaches in attendance for Wilson were Arkansas coach John Calipari and one assistant, Oregon coach Dana Altman, and Georgia Tech head coach Damon Stoudamire. Kentucky seems to be the only program that sent the entire coaching staff.
Wilson is ranked as the No. 6 overall player by 247 Sports and the No. 3 power forward.
announced Friday that the program will host an open tryout later this month for potential walk-ons for the 2024-25 season.
The Wildcats, a preseason top-25 team, are asking interested players to submit their height, weight, position and contact information for their high school basketball coach.
The tryout is open to all academically eligible, full-time Kentucky students. According to the announcement, the team will narrow its list of potential walk-ons and invite preferred candidates to the tryout Aug. 30.

Though an open tryout is rare for a blue-blood college basketball program, Kentucky is not the first to hold one.
Just last year, Louisville coach Kenny Payne held such a tryout and asked the public to send walk-ons “our way” because the team was desperate to add more talent during a challenging season.
In women’s basketball, TCU was forced to add four walk-ons last season through an open tryout after multiple players were sidelined with injuries.
To be clear, Kentucky is not in such a situation.
The Wildcats will be led by transfers Jaxson Robinson and Lamont Butler, along with a collection of talent that Pope — who as a player helped Kentucky win a national title in 1996 — has assembled for his first year coaching in Lexington.
