Two days after landing the No. 1-ranked high school basketball prospect in the country, Kentucky's coaches hit the road for the start of the fall recruiting period, the next step in a process that could deliver a superclass to Lexington.
Starting Thursday, college coaches are permitted to meet with recruits for in-home and in-school visits, the first time such trips have been allowed since the NCAA halted off-campus recruiting in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
That means John Calipari and his revamped coaching staff will be plenty busy in the coming days.
The Herald-Leader confirmed Wednesday that UK's coaches will meet with four major recruits from the 2022 class — Adem Bona, Dereck Lively II, Chris Livingston and Cason Wallace — in the opening days of this new recruiting period.
The Wildcats already have pledges from five-star point guard Skyy Clark, who committed to Kentucky last October, and five-star shooting guard Shaedon Sharpe, who recently ascended to the No. 1 ranking in the 2022 class and revealed his commitment to UK on Tuesday night.
Calipari clearly has designs on more recruiting victories in this cycle, and it's not unrealistic to think that UK could ultimately land all four of the uncommitted 2022 stars on this week's visit list.

He seems to a great player for his age.
