Stokes scheduled his visit to Kentucky first, arriving on Sunday night. He told Krysten Peek<\/a> that he was coming back to Lexington to see what the vibe was like with the new staff, undoubtedly a reference to Mo Williams, who came on board a few weeks ago. Williams may be a factor in Wright\u2019s recruitment, too, flying with Mark Pope to Atlanta this weekend to visit with the BYU point guard, according to Jack Pilgrim<\/a>. Wright\u2019s father is a fan of Williams, so hopefully, the newbie on the staff can help the Cats pull off a coup. <\/p>\n Kentucky fans are so excited for the visits, they\u2019re hanging banners telling Stokes and Wright to \u201cCome Home.\u201d As Matt Jones said on KSBoard<\/a>, Stokes and Wright may not be the only visitors today; a mystery guest could join them. Separately, there is talk that Syracuse forward Donnie Freeman<\/a> could visit this week, further fueled by Mo Williams and Mikhail McLean stopping by the banner house to ask them to make one for Freeman, who was on FaceTime. <\/p>\n Either way, whatever happens today with Stokes and\/or Wright will have huge ramifications on Kentucky\u2019s plans moving forward. We sure could use some good news around here, especially after Louisville landed<\/a> Kansas transfer Flory Bidunga and Oregon transfer Jackson Shelstad on Sunday. Cross everything you\u2019ve got that today goes well. Maybe even make a sign.<\/p>\n Obviously, Stokes and Wright\u2019s visits will dominate the news today. Here\u2019s a rundown of some things you may have missed while you were watching the Masters and what else is happening today.<\/p>\n Trent Noah is back; Brandon Garrison to Alabama<\/p>\n Mountain Mamba is back. Trent Noah announced on Sunday that he will return to Kentucky<\/a> for his junior season. The Harlan native averaged just 3.0 points and 2.3 rebounds this past season, but is committed to year three under Pope, representing his home state school. Welcome back, Mountain Mamba.<\/p>\n Elsewhere, Brandon Garrison has a new home. BG is taking his talents to Tuscaloosa, committing to Alabama<\/a> last night. Jasper Johnson is also considering the Crimson Tide, although John Calipari and Arkansas have also thrown their hat in the ring. Mo Dioubate could also end up playing for a former Kentucky coach. The Queens native visits Rick Pitino and St. John\u2019s this week. Honestly, that makes total sense.<\/p>\n Will Stein landed his biggest recruit yet<\/p>\n Maybe the basketball staff can borrow some of the football staff\u2019s recruiting mojo. On Sunday, Will Stein landed his biggest recruit yet<\/a>, four-star quarterback Jake Nawrot<\/a>, the second-highest-ranked QB in the 2027 class. Kentucky beat out Iowa and Oregon for the Illinois native, who led his state in touchdown passes last fall with 41 and completed 71% of his throws for a school record 3,078 yards.<\/p>\n KSR Top 10Top 101Top Portal PG<\/p>\n to visit Kentucky<\/p>\n Trending<\/a>2Tyran Stokes \ud83d\udc40<\/p>\n schedules visit to Kentucky<\/p>\n Trending<\/a>3No. 2 QB<\/p>\n Commits to KENTUCKY<\/p>\n Hot<\/a>4Brandon Garrison<\/p>\n to Alabama<\/p>\n New<\/a>5<\/a>View All<\/a>Get the On3 Top 10 Newsletter in your inbox every morning<\/p>\n By clicking “Subscribe to Newsletter”, I agree to On3’s Privacy Notice<\/a>, Terms<\/a>, and use of my personal information described therein.<\/p>\n \u201cI had it in my heart to make it to this place,\u201d Nawrot told Jacob Polacheck<\/a>\u00a0on Sunday. \u201cOver the phone with Coach Sloan, I randomly had it in my gut to say I\u2019m coming. Just like that, it was official. Now, it\u2019s going everywhere.\u201d<\/p>\n Nawrot is a huge addition, the eighth and highest-ranked member of Kentucky\u2019s 2027 class, which currently ranks No. 26 nationally. On Friday, four-star defensive tackle Elijah Brown<\/a> committed. Will Stein was already making noise on the recruiting trail; this weekend\u2019s additions are another boost of momentum during a critical time. Steve Wiltfong has some exciting intel about who could be next<\/a>, placing an RPM pick for Beechwood four-star wide receiver Tyler Fryman<\/a>, who is currently committed to Louisville to play baseball. That\u2019d be a fun steal.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/HFv9PewW0AAta-7.jpeg\")
