We have finally received word that Eric Bledsoe will be taking his game to Lexington, Kentucky and not to Memphis. Bledsoe will choose Kentucky at his 11 AM est, news conference.
"Bledsoe believes that Calipari will make him a better player and help him get where he wants to go in life." Our source said by phone early Wednesday morning.
Bledsoe is not shying away from the challenge of possibly having to compete with John Wall for playing time. Bledsoe will be recruit number 5 in the Calipari era at Kentucky. Joining Daniel Orton, John Hood, DeMarcus Cousins and junior college standout Darnell Dodson. One thing that is for sure, the sturdy guard will catapult the Wildcat's 09' class into the top 5 nationally.
Bledsoe is a strong, tough guard that averaged over 25 ppg, 11 rebounds and 10 assists as a senior. The last question that remains to be answered (for the Wildcat's) is if Mr. Wall wants to play with another elite point guard in Bledsoe.
