Big Blue Madness gets underway tomorrow night at 7 pm and several recruits are planning to be in attendance.
Here is a list of recruits that have confirmed they will be at madness.
2014
* Five-star Center Karl Towns (commitment)
* Five-star Power Forward Trey Lyles
* Four-star Point Guard Tyler Ulis (commitment)
* Four-star Shooting Guard James Blackmon Jr.
* Five-star Small Forward Stanley Johnson
2015
*Four-star Point Guard Eric Davis
2016
* Four-star Point Guard Kobi Simmons
* Four-star Shooting Guard Josh Langford
* Five-star Shooting Guard Jayson Tatum
It appears Big Blue Madness is set up to be another big recruiting tool. Having Ulis and Towns already commited, and getting Stanley Johnson on campus for BBM along with Trey Lyles and James Blackmon Jr. is huge for the 2014 class. I think Kentucky gets Blackmon and Lyles. Johnson is the one that needs to be convinced Kentucky is where he needs to be. Just getting him to come to Madness is a good sign, because Arizona was trying to convince him not to take this visit, so things are looking pretty good for Kentucky with Johnson.
We can now add two more 2016 recruits to the list of visitors, as five-star power forward Harry Giles and five-star small forward Jayson Tatum have both tweeted they attend Big Blue Madness.
