Rivals’ Corey Evans believes UK will land one of Hunter Sallis or Skyy Clark, UNC gets other

From the time Skyy Clark took an unofficial visit to Lexington back in February, through Kentucky’s scholarship offer in early July, and well into the month of August, the Wildcats have been deemed overwhelming favorites to land the 2022 five-star guard and reclassification candidate.

In recent weeks, though, Kentucky’s momentum has shifted ever-so-slightly in North Carolina’s favor. In fact, Rivals basketball recruiting expert Corey Evans switched his FutureCast from UK (originally submitted on July 5) to UNC just two days ago on Sept. 5.

In an appearance on the Kentucky Daily podcast with Shawn Smith of Go Big Blue Country and Derek Terry of the Cats Pause, Evans said that while he would still predict Kentucky if Clark made a commitment today, he feels the tide is turning in favor of the Tar Heels.
