The recruitment of Bluegrass product Tay Kinney has reached its next step, as the 5-star point guard has trimmed his list down to 12 schools, according to Joe Tipton.
To no surprise, the Kentucky Wildcats made the cut for the Louisville native. Other schools still on his list include the Louisville Cardinals, Arkansas Razorbacks, Texas Longhorns, Kansas Jayhawks, Tennessee Volunteers, and Auburn Tigers, among others.
The 6-foot-1 Kinney, now playing for Overtime Elite, has already taken official visits to Kentucky, Louisville, and Purdue. He’s planning to take trips to Arkansas, Texas, Oregon, Indiana, and Kansas in the coming weeks.
In the class of 2026, Kinney is ranked 23rd overall by Rivals, 11th by 247 Sports, and 17th by ESPN.
The recent buzz in this recruitment has been that Louisville leads, Arkansas is making a strong push, and Kentucky is falling behind. Will Mark Pope be able to change that before it’s too late?
Kinney is planning to make his college announcement before his senior season begins.
