Jack Harlow Releases Kentucky vs. Louisville Themed Shoes
Published
3 weeks agoon

Jack Harlow is one of the hottest names in music right now. By the chance that you haven’t heard from him, he is a platinum-selling rap artist from Louisville, Kentucky.
Harlow represents the state of Kentucky well and is proud to display his home state in his performances, interviews, and apparel.
While admittedly a Louisville fan himself (unfortunate), Harlow has said that most of his close friends are Kentucky fans. In collaboration with New Balance, who Harlow has an endorsement deal with, a “friends and family” New Balance 550 was released celebrating the release of his new album Come Home The Kids Miss You, which showcases a Kentucky vs. Louisville theme.
Each pair displays the colors of their respective schools and also features unique identifiers. The Kentucky pair features a checkerboard insole, as well as “Team Kentucky” on the tongue. While there are no pictures showing the details of the Louisville pair outside of the colorway, one could assume there are similar Louisville-related details.
Despite the fact that Harlow is a Louisville fan, it is definitely cool and good for the rivalry to feature one of the biggest artists in music right now. It also doesn’t hurt that Harlow’s close friend, Drake, is a Kentucky and Calipari fan.

No. 1 Point Guard Robert Dillingham Chooses Kentucky

The Kentucky Wildcats just added a significant piece to their 2023 recruiting class, No. 1 point guard Robert Dillingham, choosing Kentucky over Auburn, Louisville, and USC. Breaking: Robert Dillingham tells @PaulBiancardi he has committed to the University of Kentucky.
Dillingham attends Donda Academy and is the No. 5 overall prospect in the ESPN 100 for the class of 2023. @robwitdashifts pic.twitter.com/UtpAEieomp— ESPN (@espn) June 24, 2022
Back in December, Dillingham had originally elected to stay home and committed to NC State. This came as a last-minute surprise, as Dillingham held seven 247 Sports Crystal Ball predictions to Kentucky just 48 hours prior to his decision.
However, Dillingham decommitted from NC State back in March after the school received NCAA violations. Upon reopening his recruitment, UK assistant coach Chin Coleman told Dillingham, “I’m not gonna lose this time,” and he held true to his word.
In Dillingham, Kentucky is getting an extremely talented player that many have started to compare to long-time No. 1 recruit DJ Wagner, who Dillingham has even expressed interest in playing alongside.
Despite his small 6-foot-1, 165-pound frame, Dillingham is the perfect modern point guard, possessing elite speed, finishing ability, ball-handling skills, and perimeter shooting. Collectively, these attributes make Dillingham the dangerous offensive weapon that he is and gives him the confidence to score at all three levels.
With that said, Dillingham does not rely on his scoring ability to make an impact, as he is also willing to make the extra pass and put his teammates in positions to succeed.
In addition to his electric style of play, Dillingham possesses an alpha mentality and toughness. However, Dillingham does need to build on his frame and improve on the defensive end, as he can lose focus at times.
Dillingham joins Reed Sheppard to give the Kentucky two 5-star recruits and moves the Wildcats’ recruiting class into third place in the 247 Sports rankings, behind Duke and North Carolina.
If you are unfamiliar with Dillingham and his playstyle, watch this breakdown and get up to speed on the most recent Wildcat commit.

Former Kentucky Strength Coach Turns Heel and Says “Go Cards”

Back in late April, it was announced that the men’s Kentucky basketball program and former strength coach Rob Harris had parted ways.
Harris had been with the program for eight seasons and while no reason was ever officially given for his departure, it can be attributed to a combination of recent lower-body injuries, receiving a technical foul for a scuffle at Tennessee back in February, and a public video of him having an outburst at his daughter’s basketball game.
While Harris is looking for a new position, Louisville is looking for a new strength and conditioning coach. Could the two join forces against a common enemy, being Kentucky?
It certainly looks like Harris would be on board. On Wednesday afternoon, Harris made a heel move and tweeted his support of Kenny Payne and the Louisville Cardinals. Yessir KP!!!!!!!!! Go Cards https://t.co/R70p3HQbiY— Rob Harris (@RobStrong621) June 22, 2022
If Harris does join the staff, it will be another another piece to reviatlize the Kentucky-Louisville rivalry.

Kentucky Expressing Interest in 2024 Top 100 In-State Recruit, Travis Perry
Published

In the 2023 class, John Calipari has already secured a commitment from Reed Sheppard, the best prospect in the state of Kentucky and ranked top-25 nationally.
Looking ahead to the 2024 class, Calipari is already showing interest in Lyon County’s Travis Perry, who is ranked as a top-two prospect in the state and ranked in the top 100 nationally.
This past weekend, Calipari was in attendance for the Titans-Rockets Classic to see Xavier Booker – who has made an astronomical jump in the latest recruiting rankings – and was also given the opportunity to watch Perry.
The Lyon County product must have left a lasting impression as Travis’s father, Ryan Perry, says that Calipari has been in contact “quite a bit” this week. On top of that, Travis and his parents – who are Kentucky graduates and admitted Wildcat fans – are planning a visit to Kentucky this weekend to talk with Calipari and tour the campus.
To those who follow Kentucky high school basketball Perry’s name is very recognizable. Playing varsity since his seventh-grade year – averaging 20.6 points per game that season – Perry has scored 3,189 career points and is well on his way to breaking the state record of 4,337 points, held by “King” Kelly Coleman.
What is Perry’s motivation? “I’m just trying to get one more point than the other team, because I gotta ride home with my dad. And that’s the coach, and I don’t want to have to listen to him complain the whole way,” Perry told Ben Roberts of the Herald-Leader.
Perry currently holds offers from Creighton, Ole Miss, Iowa, and Purdue among others but expect his recruitment to continue heating up. Since last weekend’s event, Juwan Howard and Michigan have also expressed interest.
Check out Perry’s highlights as he went head-to-head with Sheppard and North Laurel in last summer’s Titans-Rockets Classic.
