Kentucky Adds Jonny David as a Walk-On

The Kentucky Wildcats have started the task of replacing Sam Malone, Tod Lanter and Brian Long with 6-foot-2 guard Jonny David from Mount Lebanon (Pa.).

Instead of exploring other Division I offers, David decided he would rather be a walk-on at Kentucky.

David averaged 18.5 points per game as a senior.

Here is more from the Herald-Leader:

Jonny had expressed interest in walking on at a bigger program, and Calipari noted that he would be losing three walk-ons — seniors Tod Lanter, Brian Long and Sam Malone — to graduation.

Calipari told the Davids to consider it over the next few months and let him know at the end of the season if he’d be interested in coming to Kentucky.
