The next flock of talent is headed to Kentucky.

John Calipari has made his money recruiting the best of the best. Four out of the five players on this list were Calipari products. That goes to show that the bar has been set as high as it can be. In response to these recruiting classes, talent has been developed each and every year to send multiple Wildcats to the NBA. The entire league is littered with NBA talent and that’s not going to slow down anytime soon.

The next flock of talent will be making its way to Lexington real soon. Could one of the new kids on the block dethrone some of our top spots? We will see. One thing we do know is, Kentucky is way overdue for a National Title.
