The Kentucky Wildcats have been hot on the recruiting trail the last few weeks, landing 2018 5-star forward E.J. Montgomery and then the next day, the top point guard in the 2019 class in Ashton Hagans (who may reclassify to 2018.)
But even with Montgomery and possibly Hagans in the fold for 2018, it will be difficult for the Wildcats to overtake the Duke Blue Devils’ stranglehold on the #1 2018 recruiting class, according to Rivals’ Eric Bossi.
Duke is solidly in the lead with commitments from the top 3 players in the class in R.J. Barrett, Cameron Reddish, and Zion Williamson, as well as the top point guard in the class in Tre Jones, a top-10 player.
For Kentucky to take over the top ranking, Bossi said that Hagans needs to reclassify in which he would likely be a top 10 recruit in 2018, and Kentucky would need to pull in another commitment, such as a reclassified James Wiseman, to take over the #1 designation. That doesn’t look likely right now, as it seems Wiseman and his family are content with staying in 2019.
