Overview
- Kentucky held a Zoom meeting with former Colgate guard Jalen Cox and is trying to schedule an official visit, with no date set per his representatives.
- Yahoo Sports reported the conversation went well and described mutual interest, though plans remain early.
- Cox earned All-Patriot League first-team and All-Defensive honors last season at Colgate.
- He averaged 17.9 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 5.3 steals while shooting 36% from three, offering two-way production Kentucky lacks.
- The outreach to Cox comes as Kentucky ramps up portal recruiting, with other targets such as point guard Zoom Diallo also in the mix after a poor 2025-26 season and a light incoming class.
