Exactly! Western KY, Xavier and Saint Louis are his other choices. Any kid in the state would WANT to play for Kentucky but being ABLE to play is totally different. I couldn't have said it better myself Lookayanner. The boy has low expectations for himself by looking to play at the 3 schools I listed in my opinion, if he could shine at Western then he may be on the bench at UK..

Cameron Mills wanted to play for Kentucky, wasn't able, but worked until he was. Most players don't have the heart Mills did, and that's where the want to comes into play.

I think Kentucky may be too much for Pettigrew and I'm sorry, but I'm not too wrapped up in having to recruit in-state players and assuming they all have the heart to be Wildcats, yet I would give Pettigrew a shot if the others (Patterson, Lucas, Jordan, JUCO's) don't work out.
