Calipari, Antigua hint at mid-year enrollment for 5-star SG Shaedon Sharpe

Kentucky’s top-rated commitment, Shaedon Sharpe, is “definitely” considering an early enrollment, a move that would allow him to move to Lexington and begin practicing with the team in January.

While UK or its coaches are not allowed to make official comments on the matter until Sharpe signs on the dotted line in November, John Calipari indirectly discussed the matter at Media Day on Wednesday.

When asked about mid-year additions at the collegiate level, Calipari said it’s not common at Kentucky — he’s only taken one early enrollee in Hamidou Diallo — but he’s “fine” with it if the right opportunity presents itself.
