Sacha Killeya-Jones to commit to UK today? (UPDATE: Committed to UK)

Let the commitment watch begin.

Kinda surprised at this...not that he will commit to UK that Cal would take a commitment from a 40ish ranked player in this supposed "stacked" class.

But, I hear he is rising up the rankings and could finish top 25ish so hopefully it's a good pickup.

ESPN 100 Sacha Killeya-Jones has committed to Kentucky, per @PaulBiancardi. No. 56 in 2016 class.

I'll take it!!

247 sports has him ranked as the #18 player in the 2016 class...quite a difference from ESPN's ranking.

Got a lot of buzz this past summer from various people.

Tremendous name.

Where else would he play? #HyphenU

The fact we are adding depth on the frontline raises concerns for me about Skal's eligibility. Hope this isn't a backup plan just in case.

He's in next year's class. His commitment doesn't affect this year's depth.

Thought i ready he would be eligible after the first of the year if we needed him to be. If not, he would redshirt this year.

Believe you may be thinking of Wynyard.

Killeya is in the class of 2016.

That is correct sir and thanks for the clarification. Regardless, hope Skal is good to go with no problems this year.

Here's a good article on Killeya-Jones. It sounds like he likes all the attention he gets when he is in Kentucky from the fans. That's good because you have to be able to handle that if you play at UK.

That is a must, and it sounds like he is handling it well. Welcome to the Big show Sacha!
