Nick Richards, Quade Green, P.J. Washington and Jarred Vanderbilt are all committed to Kentucky right now and that gives the Wildcats the most commits playing in the game. Duke and UCLA aren't too far behind with two apiece though. More recruits than usual are uncommitted at this point in time though so there's still a chance those schools could add another player or two to their rosters for 2017.

And just to show how dominant the Wildcats have been in the recruiting game under coach John Calipari, there's this stat:
Quade Green, P.J. Washington, Jarred Vanderbilt and Nick Richards are all McDonald's All-Americans for Kentucky. That's 29 for UK under Cal.

Calipari has a shot at making that 30 as well since he is still in the hunt for power forward Mohamed Bamba.
