Alex Afari, Mark Mitchell ruled ineligible following NCAA win in Kentucky Court of Appeals
Alex Afari is no longer eligible for Kentucky football after the Kentucky Court of Appeals ruled for the NCAA, dissolving the temporary injunction that had allowed athletes in the class of 2022 to play this season.

Kentucky 2027 commits this week: Austin Coles headlines big slate
Most of the Kentucky Wildcats 2027 commits will spend Friday night in the football world they've always known: a Friday-night band, a small-town crowd, and a stadium where everyone knows every name on the roster. Austin Coles will spend his in a different universe. The 6-foot-4, 195-pound receiver plays for St. Thomas Aquinas in Fort Lauderdale, and the Raiders visit Chaminade-Madonna at 6:30 p.m. ET. High School Football America put the game on its list of the five best matchups in the country this weekend, and it's the one Kentucky fans should circle. Aquinas is unbeaten and hasn't lost in 19 games, and it leads the early projections for Florida's new eight-team Open Division bracket. The defense has been stingy, giving up 45 points total across five games. Chaminade-Madonna is 4-1 and a fixture in state title games, even after losing a chunk of its roster to Carol City over the summer. The campuses are a short drive apart, and last October Aquinas won this one 27-19. For Coles, this is the part of the story that rankings can't capture. He topped 850 yards in each of his two seasons at Barrington, Illinois, and in 2025 he reached personal bests

Good luck trying to slow down Franck Kepnang
The Big Blue Nation is going to love Franck Kepnang. Not just for basketball reasons, though — although there’s a good chance they enjoy that, too. The seven-footer is a joy to talk with and be around. He’s engaging, clearly smart (did you know he has his master’s in information systems?), enjoys having new conversations, and brightens up any room with his personality. You’ll usually see him with a smile on his face. For a 275-pound giant, he acts like a close friend to anyone he towers over. But you do not want to get in his way on the basketball court. “I don’t know if you get more aggressiv...

Mark Pope is high on Kentucky’s 3-point shooting, but there’s another area he’s even more excited about
Mark Pope loves to have his teams shoot three-pointers. And while last season’s Kentucky team wasn’t exactly a flamethrower from deep, he believes the 2026-27 edition of the Wildcats will get back on track. “We think that our shooting is going to be elite,” Pope said at Media Day on Monday. “We think that we shoot it really, really well, and we have a depth of shooters that’s important for us.” Sitting at the top of that shooting depth chart is Milan Momcilovic. Having the best three-point shooter in college basketball (48.7 percent last season at Iowa State) certainly helps create the belief ...
