KSR’s Jack Pilgrim reported that Kentucky’s coaching staff made an early inquiry about Avila, but they are no longer pursuing him.In addition, Avila just got an injunction that will actually allow him to stay at Saint Louis, despite the roster limit rule, and he’s now slated to play this week against, ironically, Mark Mitchell and Missouri.Other than Kentucky kicking the tires, nothing has come of the recruitment of the legendary college basketball player. Big Blue Nation shared some thoughts on Twitter about it, with people being able to talk themselves into it, but Cream Abdul-Jabarr/Larry Blurred/Milk Chamberlain/LeBron Frames/Rob Wave/Shaquille Oatmeal/Kevin McPale will not be a Wildcat after all.</div></body>
