kentuckysportsradio.com/?p=47897Let the Michael Scott jokes begin! Evan Daniels of Scout.com is reporting Enes Kanter has committed to Kentucky. The 6′11″ Turkish big man has been a late arrival on the recruiting scene and originally committed to Washington way back when. But now Daniels says he has cast his lot with UK today. According to Daniels, who has been high on this kid from the moment he arrived, Kanter has the complete skill package and is a big man who can do it all. He is not really the typical Euro big man that stays on the outside. According to Daniels, he likes to mix it up down low and can be a force on the post. The issue with Kanter will be his eligibility to play next year. He played in Europe and will likely have to deal with his status there and his amateurism here. There have been some rule changes to make it easier for players to come to America and play college basketball and Kanter turned down a number of pro offers in Europe to come play college basketball here. He believes playing for Calipari is the way to the promised land and if this year’s draft class is any indication, he is correct. A big get for Kentucky and someone who will fill many needs when he gets to Lexington. Plus Jorts hosted him on his visit. You cant beat it.

Um at the way things are going it has a shot. If it's true that Orton goes pro,and maybe Brandon Knight goes to Kansas,and CJ Leslie ends up not going to UK,then what? Left with Kanter,Bledsoe,and Poole

They are losing Sherron Collins,great option for him if Xavier Henry,and Cole Aldrich return. Plus he is considering five schools
