Kentucky just got a big-time commitment.
Sophomore big man Dominique Ferguson, a talented and long 6-foot-9 Lawrence
North (Ind.) standout, committed to Billy Gillispie and the
Wildcats.
Scout.com's Evan Daniels broke the story earlier tonight.
"I think it's a program that best fits his style of play and they definitely
have family atmosphere," Ferguson's father, Deon, told Scout.com.
Ferguson is ranked No. 8 in the Class of 2010 by
Scout.com.
The Wildcats already have one 2009 commit, guard G.J. Vilarino, and a pair in
the 2010 class - point guard K.C. Miller out of Texas and local standout
Dakotah Euton.
However, Daniels isn't the only one who feels as though Ferguson is heads and shoulders above the previous
three.
``Gillispie already had two commitments in the 2010
class, but this one is on a much different level," Daniels told FOXSports.com. ``We are talking about an elite-level prospect."
