Way Too Early Crystal Ball Predictions: 2027 Class Pt. 1

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The "Crystal Ball" tool has become very popular in recruiting over the years so I figured I would take a stab at it with Kentucky's top rising Seniors. Here's a look at where I think some of the top Seniors will end up on commitment day. These are all just guesses. Some more educated than others, but all guesses.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1751496"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a403771b5710"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Ferlandes has already committed to Louisville.

Matthew likely has more offers coming but I can see him going to Bellarmine and thriving for a year or two before portaling up a level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2122438"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a403771b578b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Another big wing with multiple D1 offers, Gay is another player who could see more offers come next month or he could end up staying nearby.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Prediction: Eastern Kentucky.

It says a lot that Pacific came to Martin County to see Keathley at school and it says a lot that Keathley scheduled an official visit to the school recently. Seems to be a lot of mutual interest.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1745592"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a403771b57ca"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jack is already committed to Western Kentucky and has a very good fit at WKU.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
