Good morning Big Blue Nation!

It’s big news Monday as the Kentucky Wildcats are looking to add one more piece to an already stacked team. Former Virginia Tech Hokies star Kerry Blackshear is setting up his last visit and it will be with the Cats.

There’s a chance that John Calipari could have a commitment from Blackshear during his visit at UK. It’s being reported that Blackshear is down to UK, Tennessee, and Texas A&M.

I have no inside info on this like so many other bloggers claim to have, but my gut says that at the end of the day Blackshear will be a Cat.

Tweets of the Day

Welcome Johnny! Kentucky’s shooter has arrived.

And Julius Randle may be out of there soon. What a yuck lineup.

I hope the Lakers can fix their front office issues so Davis can finally be a part of a good franchise.

Somebody had a good Father’s Day.
