Malachi Moreno now recruiting Jasper Johnson to Kentucky

The Kentucky Wildcats have been a hotbed for high-profile recruits over the last decade. However, the jury is out after John Calipari’s exodus and former BYU head coach Mark Pope’s entry.

With one of the most lucrative NIL programs in the country, Kentucky should be able to attract that same talent, but Pope’s next task will be proving they can develop them into NBA superstars without Calipari.

It may come sooner rather than later after the Cats scored a commitment from Malachi Moreno, who is challenging to be the No. 1 center prospect in the class of 2025.
