Vernon Carey Jr. schedules in-home visit with Kentucky

Just a few hours after James Wiseman scheduled an in-home visit with Kentucky, another elite big man in the class of 2019 has followed suit.

According to Corey Evans of Rivals.com, Vernon Carey Jr., a top-three player and top-two center in 2019, has scheduled an in-home visit with Kentucky next week.

He will host John Calipari and company on Tuesday, September 11, one of five total in-homes next week. 

Miami will get the first visit on September 9, followed by Duke on September 10, Kentucky on the 11th, Michigan State on September 12, and UNC on September 13.

Carey will also take an official visit to Kentucky on the weekend of October 12, followed by Duke on October 19, Miami on October 26, and UNC on November 2.

Most of the attention has been on Miami, Michigan State, and Duke, but sources told KSR’s TJ Walker that the Cats are in excellent position with Carey, likely in his top-two. Calipari has been pitching the DeMarcus Cousins comparisons to the elite prospect, something he is extremely fond of. Carey has said several times in the past that he actually models his game after Cousins, so it’s a match made in heaven.

Watch him work:

Bring home both Carey and Wiseman, Coach Cal. We need Cousins and Davis v.2, and we need it now.
