Kiel Turpin Gets Visit from Thad Matta

Kiel Turpin, son of Kentucky great Melvin Turpin, has been getting more and more attention over the last couple of weeks. The 6’11” center at Lincoln Junior College has opened a lot of eyes recently, including Ohio State University’s Thad Matta. Matta visited Turpin yesterday as it was the first visit from Ohio State. Turpin’s stock is on the rise and I am sure Kentucky will be really interested in Turpin. Turpin will be eligible for D1 after the fall semester and will be ready to play after Christmas.
