We already know the 2013 class will be epic, but what about 2015? Karl Towns, the 2015 phenom, will announce his college decision on December 4th, according to a statement from his athletic director to the Herald-Leader. The news comes as no surprise to CBSSports’ Jeff Borzello, who alluded to it during his early signing day live blog earlier today:
11:19 a.m.: It’s not signing day for class of 2015 prospects, but @gadyca has a question about Karl Towns: Rumor has it that Karl Towns will commit on Dec. 4th. Where do you think he’s leaning, and why so early?
We’re hearing the same thing regarding Towns, and yes, it’s very early. Towns, though, has been recruited at a high level for a couple of years now, and he could be tiring of the process. With that said, would we be surprised if he postponed his decision? Not at all. Kentucky is the leader right now, as Towns has a great relationship with John Calipari from the Dominican Republic national team. Florida and Duke are chasing.
Come on down, Karl.

He attended DUKE’s midnight Madness.
I can teach him to foul and flop and cry to the ref’s – and get away with it.
Did I say flop?
November 14th, 2012 at 4:05 pm
Perfect, still time to poke duke in they eye. Take that – poke!
November 14th, 2012 at 4:06 pm
or…did he decide to attend the winner of last nights game?
November 14th, 2012 at 4:07 pm
Towns can’t on December 4th, he can only verbally commit.
November 14th, 2012 at 4:09 pm
Can’t sign that is.
November 14th, 2012 at 4:16 pm
Why people be stealing my name! Ugh, so frustrating. I will ban myself so others will not ruin my ksr cred

Seen him play, kid is mediocre at best. LOUISVILLE’s class next year will all at least speak english, while also being better basketball players than the thugs UK will bring in. FACE IT, yall got lucky with one once in a lifetime player in AD, and won a ship. WONT HAPPEN AGAIN, MARK My WoRdS. #L1C4
BTW, have fun in the Music City Bo…Nevermind, I forgot UK doesn’t have a football team

Does Forde dislike the Wildcats? Also, it appears he is a “little loose in the loafers”.
November 14th, 2012 at 4:18 pm
Kid is going to FL, great relationship with former gator Al Horford and his dream is to be a gator.
November 14th, 2012 at 4:20 pm
7-They might speak English but you can’t. Crawl back in the ditch you call home.
November 14th, 2012 at 4:23 pm
He’s here for sure.
November 14th, 2012 at 4:25 pm
Is that cards fan joking? They’re talking abot this class as potentially one of the best ever. You all signed a JUCO transfer that Memphis didn’t want and a couple of no names.
November 14th, 2012 at 4:30 pm
You can tell it’s almost December. That’s when the Tardinals get hungry and start hopping
around your back porch for crumbs. They’re cute little birds, really. But a group of ‘em
together can really be annoying. ‘Worse thing is the little poos they leave everywhere
on the (message) boards. ‘Only thing I know to do is just let the Wildcat out for a while.
I do love birds and in fact all of God’s creation. But I confess I feel relieved when that
cat comes in with a few li’l red feathers still stuck around ‘is mouth.

7, thugs? Lol those kids for next years class are some of the most well spoken young men I’ve seen out of a basketball star. Also, dummy, Towns is 2015, not 2014, and he speaks English just fine as he has lived in the US a long time. Just stop hatin cuz Pitino can’t compete with Cal for those recruits, recruits that usually have no interest in Louisville. Btw, UK will 2 or 3 more before Lville will ever win another. MARK MY WORDS. Idiot troll.
November 14th, 2012 at 4:35 pm
Me thinks Calipari will be long gone by 2015.
November 14th, 2012 at 4:36 pm
I’m not completely sold on this kid. Not all that quick, and doesn’t look like he can jump over a game program.
November 14th, 2012 at 4:36 pm
Also, he is the #1 player in his class. Your bitterness cracks me up.
November 14th, 2012 at 4:42 pm
december 4th does not bode well for the cats.
November 14th, 2012 at 4:45 pm
Paul in the fort, worry not young fella.
Once CAL departs, KENTUCKY reloads with Rick Pitino.
What’s funnier is if, in 2015, Petrino is at the KENTUCKY Football helm.
November 14th, 2012 at 4:46 pm
lol at the frustrated UofL fan.
November 14th, 2012 at 4:53 pm
jay z b’day and he commits big coincidence
November 14th, 2012 at 4:58 pm
He will choose UK on the 4th. He will also be moving to the 2014 class.
November 14th, 2012 at 5:08 pm
i just hope we play duke in the ncaa. dukes a big flp anyway. coach k has no class
November 14th, 2012 at 5:21 pm
how long until towns reclassifies to 2014
November 14th, 2012 at 5:30 pm
@24 – This spring
November 14th, 2012 at 5:34 pm
#22 is correctomundo. Kid is moving up a year and is tired of all the coaches contacting them. We need to pay Antigua whatever he wants because he is really helping with some of these recruits.
November 14th, 2012 at 6:11 pm
Dec 4 is my birthday. That would be a nice present!
November 14th, 2012 at 7:26 pm
Just seconds after the tip K started talking to the referees. Only a weak mouse of a referee-man would be intimated by a person like him.
November 14th, 2012 at 7:27 pm
Calipari is getting a little early.
November 14th, 2012 at 8:19 pm
Allows plenty of time for planning of ur big blue madness dance
November 14th, 2012 at 9:45 pm
Coach Orlando took Karl under his wing during the whole DR National team tour. Coach “O” has more pull than a Al Harford. Karl will be a Wildcat.
