Kentucky (Calipari) Pulls ANOTHER 5-star Recruit For 2013 - Message Board Basketball Forum

skan72 · 10-17-2012, 04:45 PM

Marcus Lee, a 6'9" class of 2013 big out of California, has just committed to the Big Blue Nation. He's the no. 15 ranked player on Rivals top 150.

He also had offers from California, Duke, UCLA, Indiana, Kansas, and Louisville.

(with) the Marcus Lee decision, John Calipari has landed 24 players at UK. 18 five-stars, five four-stars and one three-star.

Calipari now has the no. 3, 4, 8, 15, and 126 ranked players out of Rivals top 150. That's four top-20 guys! Mind you, not four top-20 guys across other recruiting websites.

Dang!! I gotta see how he manages their minutes. I am going to make sure that my players watch some Kentucky games and watch how players are sharing minutes. This is going to be fun.

If Kentucky gets Julius Randle and Willie Cauley stays another year this team will be unstoppable.

Willie Cauley is not a "1 & Done" player. You shouldn't have any worries.

He doesn't have any skills that translate to the NBA as a developmental prospect either. He's a project on the college level, but he could be like Shawn Taggart was to Cal's Memphis teams.
