From what I understand (and if someone has more details they can correct me if I’m wrong) is the guy asked for 2 weeks away after the passing, which was rightfully granted. Then 2 months went by with no communication from him and they decided to cut him loose. Which is understandable.
Makes no sense. So you’re seriously worried that a recruit would make his decision even partially based on a concern that his individual ranking will drop if he commits to Kentucky? I think that’s silly.
