Good morning, BBN!

It is a very important day for Mark Pope and the Kentucky Wildcats as they move into another wave of visits. This time, it is from arguably the two biggest names remaining on their big board: Tyran Stokes and Rob Wright.

Stokes, a 5-star forward originally from Louisville, is a name that the BBN is quite familiar with to this point. After a 6-month-long back-and-forth between the Cats and Kansas, are we finally getting closer to a decision? If so, getting him on campus is for sure a plus.

Wright, a BYU transfer point guard, is one of the best playmakers available in the portal. After a successful year in Provo, now Coach Pope and his staff are looking to pair him with another No. 1 high school recruit in Stokes. Add in that they were former high-school teammates, and at one point, things could come together quite quickly if things go perfectly.

Needless to say, this Monday might be the most important of the Mark Pope era. You could even argue this very well could be a turning point for it all together. Time for the staff to lock in and get some momentum back on our side.

Going to be a big day for the future of Kentucky Basketball.
