HOW UK ODDS WORK

What goes into the UK % — methodology, sources, and what to ignore.SHOW →HIDE ↑

The UK % displayed for each prospect represents the estimated likelihood that the recruit will ultimately commit to Kentucky. This percentage is a composite score derived from multiple real-world recruiting signals, not a single prediction.

WHAT GOES INTO IT

1.Crystal balls & predictions — Expert picks from 247Sports, On3, and Rivals analysts who track these recruits daily.
2.Visit activity — Official visits, campus tours, and coaching staff visits to the recruit. More recent contact pushes the percentage up.
3.Mutual interest signals — Public comments, social media engagement, and reported conversations.
4.Competing schools — How many other programs are in the mix and where they stand.
5.NIL & external factors — Shoe deals, NIL negotiations, and off-court developments.
