Father went to UK, UK has now offered, he's more than likely UK bound.

No tampering there. Just like with T. Jones or E. Kanter either.

Jones was weird. He called Calipari and told him that he would be signing with him. Then at his press conference he cracked under the hometown pressure and signed with Washington.

I'm pretty sure there were some shenanigans going on with that, but Calipari does know when to lay off when players are committed elsewhere. He's ruthless.

One thing to keep in mind with Blackmon Jr He is very good friends with a fellow IU decommit Trey Lyles.....don't be surprised if they become a package deal......probably both to UK
