We have a Tyran Stokes post-Big Blue Madness update!

Ask and you shall receive, folks. You wanted an update on No. 1 recruit Tyran Stokes on Big Blue Madness day, to put a bow on things at KSR HQ, BBN is getting one.
Minutes after BBM wrapped up inside Rupp Arena, Kentucky’s top target in the class of 2026 shared a cryptic post on his Instagram story with a simple question mark. The timing is interesting considering it came immediately after the Wildcats’ annual season tip-off event, and just hours before his 18th birthday on October 12 — a speculated potential commitment date.
The photo itself was Stokes standing above the jerseys of his five finalists: Kentucky, Louisville, Oregon, Kansas, and USC.
Notice anything unique about it? Maybe the uniform colors? The Cards, Ducks, Jayhawks and Trojans are all in away solids while the Wildcats are in home white.

Tyran Stokes. Kentucky. Home. You picking up what I’m putting down?

Yes, we’re speculating about a teenager’s college decision at almost midnight on a Saturday night, but that’s kinda what we do around here. It’s all fans wanted to know at Fan Fest and Big Blue Madness throughout the afternoon and into the evening, asking when Stokes is pulling the trigger and, more importantly, where.
“Where will the top prospect in the country end up?” the IG post shared by Stokes, originally posted by Recruits News, said. “Tyran Stokes is deciding between Kentucky, USC, Kansas, Oregon, and Louisville.”
Question mark indeed, but hopefully that question is answered soon. He’s clearly in decision mode — and BBN would certainly love to celebrate his birthday with him.
