Why is it a secret? I am pretty sure it was some of them's offical UK visit. I mean it was in the paper.

Recruits names have been chanted every year I have went to BBM. Never once have i heard we broke NCAA rules by doin this. I mean it was in the paper that those players were going to be there. Samething goes with Kansas and the recruits that went there.

Could the fans actually cause Ncaa Recruiting violations lol? Sounds crazy.

I don't think anything with come from the NCAA violations because what can the UK staff control of what the fans do? Yes some names were chanted but they are every single year. I don't know what they thought of the trip but I'm pretty sure CJ Leslie was there. Coach Cal's speech was pretty long but I think it was intended to steer the recruit towards Kentucky's phenominal program moreso than to hype up the fans.

I heard Brandon Knight attended Kansas Midnight Madness?

I remember hearing Leslie's name being chanted and there was others, for a combined total of 4 chants but not necessarily four names. I can't think of what other names were chanted though.

Tayshaun Prince Was Being Chanted

Dont kill the messenger guys, just saying they wrote it in the paper. Dana O'neil also mentioned it at the end of her article on Big Blue Madness on ESPN.com. I dont think anything will come of it. It just said that the school may have to report possible secondary recruiting violations. She mentions it in her article titled Calipari madness but she didnt seem to make a big deal about it.
