Another Recruit Pops Up



Scout.com has reported that Terrance Henry has cut his list down to five schools, and Kentucky is among them. The other four schools Henry listed were Arkansas, Kansas, Miami (FL), and Mississippi. Henry is 6'9" and weighs 190 pounds, he plays both the small forward and the power forward positions. Henry rates as a four-star prospect and is listed as one of the top 100 players in his class. He currently ranks 18th among power forwards, and 12th among small forwards.
A lot of people compare him to Perry Stevenson, he is tall and thin, he does very well on defense and gets the ball in the basket when necessary. Henry will be visiting UK this fall, it is believed that he will be attending Midnight Madness along with Rotnei Clarke and other Kentucky recruits. Henry, as a junior, was very capable of putting up double-doubles and even triple-doubles. Expect Henry to jump up in the rankings his senior season, this kid could turn out to be a very exciting prospect.

The Man From Sudan



Many reports came out this weekend of a "mystery" big man on campus. I am not 100% positive who this person was, but I have been catching wind of a new target, who may or may not have been this "mystery" big man.

John Riek, a native of Sudan, has suddenly popped up on UK's radar and many other schools as well. Riek attends Our Savior New American High School, and has recently been listed as one of the top five players in the 2008 class, ranking second in his position. Riek is a 7'2" 240 pound man-child, a pure dominant center. He is exceptionally gifted on the defensive side and is an excellent rebounder. Riek's wing-span is incredibly long and his hand strength makes it almost impossible to take the ball away from him upon rebounding. Improvement in post play is needed, and Riek seems to dribble unnecessarily at times.

UK has been in contact with Riek, and are listed in his top schools. It is unknown whether Riek has visited UK or when exactly he will visit. Riek is relatively new and not much is known about him, but I will deliver more information when it becomes available.

Jurassic Park 4



The production team for Jurassic Park 4 is now in the casting stages in its development towards a new movie. Laura Dern will be returning for the fourth installment, but Sam Neill will not. That's a bummer.

The plot details were originally thought to be about a secret island/mountain in the Pacific. The island supposedly contains U.S. military who are sent to train dinosaurs how to carry weapons and fight in battle. Crazy huh?

Well the ACTUAL plot details have OFFICIALLY been released. The fourth installment will be about a team of U.S. soldiers sent to a secret island/mountain to train dinosaurs how to use giant guns and fight in war battles.

I'm dead serious.

Facility, Stripes, and Singleton



The Herald-Leader has posted a picture tour of UK's the new basketball practice facility. The new facility was open to the public Friday, Aug. 10 from 5-8 p.m. and Saturday, Aug. 11 from 11 a.m.-2 p.m. The facility looks nothing short of amazing! I can't see how a recruit would even second guess going to UK after seeing it. To take the picture tour CLICK HERE.



The University of Kentucky's football team was introduced to a new training method recently. White stripes were placed down the center of the defensive players helmets in hopes of improving the player's ball awareness. The white stripes act as an aid in seeing exactly where the players are looking during practice drills. If the player isn't looking in the correct spot, the coach can easily spot the mistake by looking where the ball is and where the white stripe is facing.



Chris Singleton recently told a number of interviewers his current list of top schools. Singleton listed seven schools, including UK at number five. The 6'8" 210 pound small forward plans on visiting UK sometime this fall, and expects UK to move up on his list after the visit. A lot of speculation points towards Singleton as being UK's biggest target, but many believe Tennessee still has the upper hand.
