UK Makes C.J. Leslie's Short List On Universities He Plans On Visiting And The Cats Get A Visit From Mychal Parker Next Thursday!

2010 prospect and former teammate of incoming freshman John Wall (I love saying that!) has narrowed his list down to teams he plans on visiting, with the list Kentucky joins Maryland, Florida, and Wake Forest. C.J. Leslie's game is being compared to the likes of Boston Celtic's Foward Kevin Garnett. We've talked about him before, here on 54report, but it's hard to express how good he is. John Wall has been in his ear about coming to Kentucky, but we'll just have to see how things go.

Next on the recruiting radar, is Mychal Parker. Mychal Parker who was recruited by coach Calipari is considered to be one of the 35th best players in the class of 2010 and rivals.com and scout.com both consider him a top 5 small foward, he's good. Parker was recruited by coach Calipari, while coach was at Memphis, and said that the recruitment has carried over since Calipari's arrival to Kentucky. Parker is scheduled to visit the University next thursday, which will be July 2nd.

As the 2010 begins to spice up, and the NBA draft begins to approach we still have some of a exciting off-season ahead of us!
