Two First-Time Football Offers

A pair of 2018 athletes picked up scholarship offers from Kentucky.  Both are listed as athletes.  Both are from the state of Michigan.  Both are receiving their first scholarship offers.  Jaylan Franklin and Matt Harmon have also received looks from Michigan State. Another person was added to Kentucky's offer sheet, 2018 outside linebacker DeAndre Square.  The Detroit native won linebacker MVP honors at Rivals' Columbus Camp.  Square also holds offers from Iowa State, Cincinnati and Syracuse.  Before I move on, one more Michigan man to remember: 2019 offensive tackle Davontae Dobbs was given a UK offer earlier this week.

Mac Jones' Team Wins at the Rivals Challenge

The jury seems to still be out as to whether or not Jones will earn a fifth star after attending Rivals' premiere camp in Baltimore.  But it is safe to say that Jones performed at an extremely high level.  With teams divided amongst the different states to create a competition, his Florida squad took home the title.  Watch him air it out in the deep ball competition:

Cal's NightCap

Calipari is doing the usual -- not staying put.  He's in between two courts at the Nike EYBL Tournament in Indianapolis.  On one court, Tremont Waters and Nick Richards are playing for Expressions Elite.  On another, Mohammad Bamba is taking on Trae Young and Michael Porter Jr. of MOKAN Elite.  Why Cal remains occupied, Kenny Payne is keeping an eye on Hamidou Diallo.
