Memphis, Kentucky duel for top spot in basketball recruiting rankings

Posted May 14, 2019
On Friday, Kentucky landed wing Johnny Juzang and returned to a place that they are used to being over the years: No. 1 in the team recruiting rankings. The Wildcats' time on top didn't last long, and they'll be in a battle to get back. Penny Hardaway and Memphis added big-time combo guard Boogie Ellis on Monday, putting the Tigers' class No. 1 in the country. (Rivals.com)
