John Calipari, Kentucky Building Momentum with Elite 2022 Recruits

Is John Calipari and Kentucky closing in on commitments for the 2022 class that already includes five-star guard Skyy Clark?

Kentucky is turning up the heat with two five-star prospects by getting them on campus for visits, with one making a second trip to Lexington.

Five-star wing Cason Wallace just wrapped up an official visit to Kentucky over the weekend. Shaedon Sharpe, the No. 1 player in the updated Rivals rankings, is currently on his second visit to Kentucky.

Sharpe officially visited Kentucky earlier this summer but his parents weren’t able to make the trip to Lexington with him at that time.

Kentucky is considered the heavy favorite to land Sharpe, and it sounds like Wallace (and more) could be coming soon, according to Kyle Tucker of The Athletic.

Kentucky hosted 5-star guard Cason Wallace over the weekend and then 5-star guard Shaedon Sharpe yesterday and today. Won’t be a surprise if the Cats land both (and more) relatively soon.

Sharpe’s parents couldn’t make his first visit, so he came back with them to get their ??.

I think Kentucky gets Shaedon Sharpe, ranked No. 1 by Rivals and On3, and Dereck Lively, ranked No. 1 by 247Sports …

Already has Skyy Clark, No. 11 in the 247 Composite, and probably the favorite to land Cason Wallace, top-10 by Rivals and On 3.

Might get a surprise guy too.

Kentucky fans are itching for good news in basketball recruiting with Memphis and Duke generating the buzz on the recruiting trail the last few months.

In addition to Wallace and Sharpe, Kentucky is strongly pursuing five-star talents Derek Lively and Adem Bona. Chris Livington, a top-five player in the class, also included Kentucky in his Top 4 last week.

The Sources Say Podcast crew dropped an episode Tuesday to discuss the visits and should fans be anticipating good news?
