From literally out of no where, Anthony Davis has become 2011’s all around #1 player (according to scout.com). In a recruiting class that already highlights Mike Gilchrist and Marquis Teague, Anthony Davis solidifies Calipari’s third straight recruiting class.
Even though he’s committed to becoming a Wildcat, the Davis story is still relatively unknown. In fact, if it wasn’t for his good friend and Chicago Basketball analyst Daniel Poneman, Davis may have slipped through the cracks all together.
Daniel Poneman, the owner of Swagair Lifestyle out of Chicago, IL., Recently had a chance to speak with us for [URL=”http://www.nationofblue.com/big-blue-breakdown-episode-6-real-anthony-davis-guest-daniel-poneman-2351/”]Episode 6 of the Big Blue Breakdown.[/URL] During his time on the show, he explained how Davis was somewhat of a surprise to not only recruiting analyst, but also to Davis himself. It also seems that the state of IL might be the home of future recruiting battles in the near future.

After speaking with Poneman, I’m confident we could not have a better “fit” for KY. I would even say Davis is what you think of when you think Kentucky Basketball. He’s the quintessential Kentucky boy that happens to be from Illinois.
So take a few minutes and listen to this interview and I’m sure you’ll understand what I’m saying.
