A recruiting avalanche unfolded right before our very eyes late last night \u2014 well, at least in the world of teenagers on social media. We already know the back-and-forth between Caleb Wilson<\/a><\/strong> and Acaden Lewis<\/a><\/strong>, two of the top uncommitted prospects in the class of 2025. <\/p>\n

That came following the former\u2019s official visit to Kentucky this past weekend, Wilson telling Lewis to \u201ccome on over bro\u201d after dropping his list of final four schools to include UK, Duke, UConn and North Carolina. And then once Wilson posted pictures from his trip to Lexington,<\/a> Lewis responded back, \u201cI wanna play (with) this guy.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n

Conveniently enough, those are the Wildcats\u2019 top recruiting targets going into the early signing period to pair with fellow pledges Jasper Johnson<\/a><\/strong> and Malachi Moreno<\/a><\/strong> \u2014 two top-25 prospects nationally.<\/p>\n

The latter has already singled out Lewis, the No. 36 overall recruit and No. 5 point guard, as a player he wants to join him at Kentucky.<\/p>\n

\u201cAcaden is a true point guard who can really score at all three levels, can really pass. He\u2019s a tough, hard-nosed guard,\u201d Moreno told KSR. <\/a>\u201cEvery camp I\u2019ve been to with him, he\u2019s always gotten better. He doesn\u2019t back down from anything. And he\u2019s ambidextrous, so I think that\u2019s pretty neat, too.\u201d<\/p>\n

Now, the former is publicly making a push for Wilson, the No. 4 overall prospect and No. 2 power forward in 2025. Johnson tweeted at the 6-9 forward out of Atlanta late Tuesday evening, telling him they missed their shot to play together in AAU ball, but can now make it happen in college at Kentucky.<\/p>\n

\u201cCome on (Caleb Wilson),\u201d Johnson said. \u201cWe missed (it) in AAU. Let\u2019s go crazy in front of the best fans in the country. BBN. \u2018KY til I Die.’\u201d<\/p>\n

Then came the rest of the avalanche of posts \u2014 including a few cryptic ones.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy guy,\u201d Wilson responded to get the ball rolling, adding blue and white heart emojis in a follow-up message<\/a> \u2014 plus a retweet. <\/p>\n

From there, Wilson tagged Lewis in a tweet with a nothing but an eyeball emoji. The four-star guard quickly responded with shrug and eyeball emojis, continuing their trend of hinting at wanting to team up \u2014 now aligning with Johnson\u2019s desire to team up with him at Kentucky.<\/p>\n

Needless to say, the social media sequence put Big Blue Nation on notice, each of those tweets going viral with fans begging the blue-chip duo to pick the Cats. <\/p>\n

Ah, recruiting in 2024. You can\u2019t beat it. <\/p>\n

Mark Pope already pulled off a pair of top-25 standouts. Can he add a couple more ahead of the early signing period? He\u2019s certainly giving it a shot \u2014 and there is positive momentum.<\/p>\n
