Recruiting is a funny business and even when it seems straightforward, you never know what a kid is going to do until he does it.

So whatever you hear about any particular recruit, in this case RJ Barrett, take it with a grain of salt.

Like you though, we’re guessing, we like to read tea leaves and speculate and as part of that, we like to look at sites that follow other schools which are also in the hunt.

In this case, as so often lately, that means Kentucky and our friends at A Sea Of Blue have this to say about Barrett:

“Duke has an overwhelming lead on Barrett’s Crystal Ball, with 82 percent of the picks. The Blue Devils have the last 10 picks as well. It would be a surprise if Barrett chose anyone but the Blue Devils, but the announcement will surely still be one to watch due to the talent that Barrett possesses.”

We’ll know for sure on the 10th.
