... in 1995, your University of Kentucky received letters of intent from Wayne Turner, Ron Mercer, and Nazr Mohammed. Yowza. Take a look at those names and how much they meant to the 1990s run of complete dominance. These three players were key cogs in one of the most historical runs in program history, even college basketball history for that matter. Ron Mercer chose the Cats over the Vols, deciding to play with elite players as opposed to having to wear the color orange. Mercer had arguably the best start to a UK career in my lifetime BWC (Before Wall Cousins). Wayne Turner, a McDonald's All-American from Boston, ended up playing more games than any other player in NCAA history at the time of his graduation. Nazr Mohammed, mostly known for his dominant performances on the JV team, developed into a pro prospect and was named 1998 All-SEC. Big day in UK recruiting lore.
