Thoughts on where he ends up?

How does the move from Link back to Kentucky play in?

North Carolina has had consistent buzz, but I still think that the legacy factor is too much to overcome so long as Kentucky isn't terrible next season. 

Is this a player that Pope simply can't afford to lose this early in his tenure? 

I don't know that Johnson and Moreno both have to come to Kentucky to say that Pope is recruiting well, but missing on two in-state kids this close to Lexington is probably bad news unless he hits on the players who end up on the roster. If not, the only saving grace may be if Johnson and Moreno go elsewhere and don't pan out, but I'd never wish that an in-state kid didn't succeed just because they didn't choose Kentucky.
