Georgios Papagiannis not an option for Kentucky Wildcats, per report

It looks like 2015 big man Georgios Papagiannis is not an option for Kentucky after all.

Though Papagiannis says the Wildcats are among the schools still recruiting him for 2015, KSR's Matt Jones reports UK is not an option for the four-star center:

Hearing that Greek center Georgios Papagiannis is not an option for UK in 2015 class...so my inability to pronounce his name is irrelevant

Papagiannis, a 7'1" Greek center who is currently playing the U19 World Championships with Greece, is only 17 years old and is a possible future NBA Draft pick because of his size, shot blocking ability and rebounding.
