McDonald’s All-American Boogie Fland committed to Kentucky on Oct. 20 picking the Big Blue over Alabama and Indiana. The combo guard was set to become the next one-and-done at guard for Calipari in Lexington. The plan will be the same for Fland in Northwest Arkansas playing for the Razorbacks.

The New York native had a visit this week to see Arkansas. Boogie Fland was joined on the visit by former Kentucky commit Billy Richmond. Commitments were expected. Fland was released from his National Letter of Intent to Kentucky on April 15 and found a new college basketball home 10 days later. The Wildcats will see the former signee on the hardwood in SEC play next season. Richmond could also join the pig party in Arkansas sooner rather than later.

Arkansas has officially added three players who were supposed to be on Kentucky’s roster in 2024-25. Some more are on the way. In Lexington, Pope and his new coaching staff are set to host a monster recruiting weekend with multiple transfer targets in town. Kentucky currently only has two players on the roster. Travis Perry stayed firm in his commitment to the Wildcats following the Pope hire, and former BYU signee Collin Chandler is following his head coach to Lexington.

Keep your head on a swivel. The basketball recruiting developments and updates will not stop anytime soon.
