Anyone heard this news yet?

Right now they are ranked 5th by Rivals.com

But this list hasn't been updated with Cousins signing so they will probably jump to #1 with that. Not to mention the possibility of Henry.

We shouldn't have had a top 25 recruiting class before Cousins signed, but afterward i could see us having close to a top 10. If we get Wall or Henry then i think it should be considered a top 5, and if we land them both it should be without a doubt the #1 class.

Top 5 classes according to scout.com:

1. North Carolina
2. Texas
3. Villanova
4. Kentucky
5. Georgia Tech

I think we should already have the 3 spot, but if we get either Wall or the Henry brothers I think we take the number 1 ranking with three 5 star's and a 4 star. We would be the only team with three 5 star recruits.

I would love to see that happen.

I was reading on KY sports radio that, a person close to Wall said UK was the leader right now.

i seen on KSR that if we get Wall and Xavier Henry that it will be the best recruiting class in history. they compared them to the "Fab 5" and "Thad 5"

Hate to burst your bubble, but those two teams came up short of what UK fans strive for...A NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP!

Also, the Fab Five brought along a lot of baggage that UK does not want...RECRUITING VIOLATIONS!

I personally hope this does not happen. Aside from wanting WVU to win the national championship, I cheer for UK. Just be careful what you ask for.

I agree with that.
