From the Cats Pause:

It was anticipated after the summer when Kahlil Whitney was offered by the University of Kentucky that he would end up picking the Wildcats, and on Wednesday John Calipari and his staff got the news they were looking for as Whitney committed to the program.

Whitney, who confirmed his commitment, picked the Wildcats over schools such as Oregon, Louisville, Georgetown, St. John's and numerous others who offered him during the process.

This is a big time get for the Wildcats. It shows that they can still jump in late in a recruitment and get their man, and they did just that here. Whitney was someone that Calipari spent a lot of time evaluating during July, and upon seeing him he decided to offer a scholarship. Once the offer came, Kentucky jumped to the top of Whitney's list, and it only took one official visit for this recruitment to be wrapped up.

Just a little bit of an upgrade over Jeffries. LOL.

This is exciting news especially when we were late in the recruitment of Whitney.

He's a positionless player. Welcome to the Big Blue Nation.
