Kentucky offers Shaun Kirk hours after NC State Commitment

As many have come to know, recruiting is a very strange game. It’s a game full of offers and commits and signings and flips. It seems like there are new strange recruiting stories every year.

Today we are brought yet another strange story from the mysterious recruiting trail. In this episode, three-star small forward Shaun Kirk announced his commitment to play for N.C. State in 2015 on Monday night.

While he announced his commitment on Monday, he did not sign his national letter of intent that would bind him to the school.

Merely hours after this occurred, John Calipari came in as the knight in shining armor and offered him a scholarship to play for him at Kentucky.
