Utah’s Larry Krystowiak and Oregon’s Dana Altman were in on Thursday, and Marquette’s Steve Wojciechowski is due on Sunday. “Jemarl is one of the best guards in the country,” his AAU coach Ryan Silver said. “He’s a pure knock-down shooter and a proven winner with a tremendous upside.” Kentucky has a five-man recruiting class that includes guards Quade Green and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and remains in the mix for Tampa (FL) Catholic small forward Kevin Knox. Knox had narrowed his list to Kentucky, Duke, North Carolina and Florida State, but recently announced a visit this coming weekend to Missouri.@CoachCalipari loves our school motto so he came to see us.

As he seeks to add to his incoming recruiting class, Kentucky coach John Calipari on Friday visited with Jemarl Baker, a 6-4 shooting guard from Los Angeles (CA) Theodore Roosevelt.
Baker recently obtained his release from Cal after the coaching change and now has a list of nine schools: Kentucky, Duke, Utah, Arizona, Marquette, Maryland, Oregon, Arizona State and San Diego State.
