Former Kentucky guard Ashton Hagans is helping the Wildcats in the recruitment of a four-star big man for 2020.

On Thursday, it was reported that Kentucky had contacted Frank Anselem, who had recently reclassified to 2020.

In a story written by Ben Roberts of the Herald-Leader, Anselem’s AAU coach, Julius Smith, mentioned that Hagans has been telling the 6-foot-10, 220-pound prospect great things about the Kentucky program.

 

“Ashton loves Kentucky, loves the coaching staff, loves the development,” Smith said. “Ashton has spoken to Frank and told Frank that it’s a great place that he’ll go and develop. It’s just high pressure, high stress, and you have to be mentally prepared for that.”

On Friday, Jake Weingarten of Stock Risers reported Kentucky is showing a strong interest in landing Anselem for 2020.
