Recruiting gurus can now relax.
Word of God Christian Academy superstar John Wall (6-4, PG), the top rated high school basketball player in the 2009 class according to Rivals.com and ESPN.com, has committed to play for John Calipari and the Kentucky Wildcats next season. Wall made his selection last night, and chose Kentucky over Duke, Memphis, Baylor and Miami. Calipari received the news of Wall's commitment via phone call at Game 1 of the Pittsburgh-Carolina game.
Wall, who is also projected to be the #1 overall selection in the 2010 NBA draft, joins an already impressive Kentucky 2009 class, which features DeMarcus Cousins (Rivals.com #2), Daniel Orton (Rivals.com #22), Eric Bledsoe (Rivals.com #23), Jon Hood, and Darnell Dodson.
Two weeks ago, Rivals.com awarded ranked Kentucky's 2009 class #1 overall. With the addition of Wall, the Wildcats have secured this position outright.
Hate him or love him, Calipari knows how to recruit.
