2025 5-star prospect Will Riley is being recruited heavily by Kentucky and new HC Mark Pope. The 6-foot-8 wing was even scheduled to visit UK last week before the plans fell through. Now, the expectation is he'll be in Lexington "sometime soon". 🔗on3.com/teams/kentucky…
The Bat Cats had to have that win and they got it! Huge!
Anyone that wants this list. (All local Lexington restaurants) Like this tweet and I’ll DM it to you. Too large for Twitter. Make sure you follow me or your DM’s are open.

Hey guys. Help me let this guy know how cool he is for making fun of me for making a simple mistake in front of 22,000 people.

Hey @CoachMarkPope I have made a “list” of every good local restaurant in Lexington. It’s categorized by style of food, scale of attire, seating style, and then my personal favorite in each section. If you need that as a recruiting tool just HMU. Over 150 restaurants 😊
I love it!!
Congratulations to Devin!

Welcome to Kentucky, Otega!
Michigan DB DJ Waller Jr. is set to transfer to Kentucky, per report aseaofblue.com/2024/4/27/2414… #BBN #GoCats
Lots of visitors on campus this weekend and I know folks are focusing on those targets currently… As they should… But this is someone visiting next week and I think the biggest fish on the list. How does he look in blue and white?

Mark Pope on Otega Oweh: “He brings a special physicality and intensity to the game. Otega spent his entire season picking up the point guard full court in the Big 12. His tenacity on the court is contagious and his humility off the court is going to endear himself to BBN."

@Packsburner @DylanBallard_UK @CoachMarkPope NLI=national letter of intent
@DylanBallard_UK He has 71 followers and he is a complete a hole for saying that crap. IMO You should ignore him
@DylanBallard_UK He sounds unhappy
@DylanBallard_UK You’re one of the best Dylan, forget the bums man.
@Packsburner @DylanBallard_UK @CoachMarkPope Very well said! I especially like that you placed a comma after “sound” when it was not needed. Basic English 😊
@BrandoAKing @KYSass_ Yea that's why I'm hoping it's Mahaney
@BrandoAKing @KYSass_ Yup....I probably shouldn't have said anything though. I thought it was already out there lol
