Happy 4th of July! - A message of Corey

Milan Momcilovic, the nation’s top three-point shooter last season, is headed to Kentucky where he’ll be tasked with hitting nearly 10 threes per game — a role head coach Mark Pope built around his elite shooting. Momcilovic admits the challenge but believes Kentucky’s offense will unlock his scoring potential, buoyed by Pope’s full trust in his ability to take and make high-percentage shots. With a proven track record and a new system designed to feed him, he’s primed for another historic season in Lexington.

Kentucky’s basketball team is still hunting for one final piece to complete their roster, with 14 spots already filled and summer workouts underway. Coach Mark Pope says they’re keeping their options open, ready to add the “right piece at the right time”—even if that means stretching the recruitment process into late summer. While whispers of potential recruits swirl, nothing’s official yet. Pope’s current roster is working well, and he’s not rushing to add anyone unless the fit is perfect. Injuries among current players could also shape their next move—whether they target an immediate impact player or long-term potential. Pope embraces the chaos and global nature of modern recruiting, calling it exhausting but thrilling to connect with talent from around the world.

Trent Noah’s sophomore season at Kentucky was a rollercoaster of dwindling minutes, ankle woes, and the weight of fan criticism—but instead of letting doubt define him, he’s channeling his energy into proving his inner circle right. Once a surprise commit who jumped at the Wildcats’ offer, Noah’s now laser-focused on becoming a complete offensive weapon this summer, mastering shot fakes, rim-area touch, and using his jumper to create. With a renewed confidence and a hunger to contribute, he’s ready to break through—both personally and as a team—in his third season.
