Malik Monk Commits To Kentucky Over Arkansas

A day long feared has finally arrived.

Malik Monk will not be a Razorback. He will sign with Kentucky, presumably later today since Wednesday is the last day of the early signing period.

Monk had long been rumored to Kentucky, but many of Arkansas' basketball recruiting reporters said after Monk's official visit to Arkansas a couple of weeks ago, a visit Bobby Portis even flew in for, that things were trending in Arkansas' direction. Obviously, it wasn't enough.

There are plenty of rumors flying around, including a tweet from 103.7 The Buzz's Trey Schaap, that Malik wanted to sign with Arkansas but Marcus Monk made him sign with Kentucky.
