Breaking News: Cats pick up Enes Kanter

According to Evan Daniels at Scout.com, the Cats have received a verbal from Turkish big man Enes Kanter. Once committed to Washington, the 6-foot-9 center who now resides in California, visited Kentucky late this season and decided Lexington was the place for him.Enes is a five-star recruit according to Rivals.com.Rumors about his eligibility still remain, even though the Turkish pro team he played for reportedly never paid him. I would assume though that UK would not take a commitment if they weren't sure he would be good to go next year.A new NCAA rule that was passed in January will allow foreign players who played for professional teams without being paid to remain eligible.Huge pick-up for the Cats.
