UK recruiting news

Alex Legion signed with UK basketball on Tuesday. Alex is Gillespie's first major signing. Legion is a 6'5" Parade All-American guard who averaged 20 points a game last year at Oak Hill Academy. He shot 41 percent from 3 point range and 85 percent from the free throw line. And, he had a 3.8 grade point average!

I think signing Legion signals that Gillespie has given up on signing Jai Lucas.

Kentucky reportedly is in the final three now for recruit Mike Sanchez. UK is competing with Arkansas and Wake Forest for Sanchez.

Pettigrew has apparently decided to sign with either Western Kentucky or Xavier. WKU is reportedly the favorite. I still think UK should have offered him a scholarship.
