The contact period for 2027 recruits begins on Sunday, June 15. A few targets have already emerged for Kentucky in the class, and another was added to the list on Saturday.

Charles Pur, a 2027 four-star power forward from The Burlington School (Burlington, NC), told KSR+ that Kentucky has been in contact with his coach. The staff will have the chance to reach out directly on Sunday.

Kentucky has only extended three offers in the 2027 class. UK has offered top 10 prospects C.J. Rosser, Baba Oladotun, and Obinna Ekezie Jr. in the class.

When June 15 hits, college coaches will be able to reach out to 2027 prospects directly. Expect Mark Pope and UK to expand its recruiting list during this time.

Charles Pur’s Game

Four-star forward Charles Pur of The Burlington School (NC) is ranked by On3 as the No. 67 overall prospect in the 2027 class. He is not ranked by the On3 Industry Ranking.

“I would say I’m really aggressive,” Chienggan Pur told On3. “I take a lot of pride in playing defense, I don’t really worry about the offense, that will come.

Pur told On3 that he watches a lot of Pascal Siakam and Paolo Banchero. Those are two players he models his game on.

“I worry about being aggressive and playing hard regardless of the results,” Pur told On3. “I watch a lot of. They’re both 6-foot-9 or so and good in the mid-range, attacking and facing up, with great footwork. I can see myself playing like that.”
