Former Kentucky five-star center listed as breakout candidate at Big 10 school by ESPN
Last season, Kentucky’s team was full of five-star talent, and many of those players didn’t live up to the five-star hype in Lexington. One of those players was Aaron Bradshaw. Last season, Bradshaw averaged 4.9 points and 3.3 rebounds while shooting 28.6% from three. Bradshaw missed the beginning of the season due to a foot injury, but he wasn’t great once healthy outside of a few games.
Despite not having the best freshman season, when watching Bradshaw on the floor, it was very clear that he possesses a ton of upside. When John Calipari left for Arkansas, Bradshaw decided to transfer to Ohio State, where he will look to have a big season.
Myron Medcalf and Jeff Borzello of ESPN had this to say about Bradshaw being a breakout candidate this season, “Don’t give up on your Bradshaw stocks just yet, despite him barely playing down the stretch of Kentucky’s season. A former McDonald’s All-American and the No. 6 prospect in the 2023 class, Bradshaw was hampered by a foot injury last offseason and delayed his debut until December. He did show flashes of his enormous potential: 17 points and 11 boards against Penn, 12 points against North Carolina.”
When watching Bradshaw last season, it was clear that if he puts on a little bit of muscle and plays stronger down low, he could be an elite big man in college hoops. It wouldn’t come as a surprise if Bradshaw had a massive season for the Buckeyes and gets drafted in the first round of the 2025 NBA Draft.
A wide receiver from Belle Glade, Florida, Gilmore totaled 28 receptions for 313 yards and one touchdown for the Wildcats during the 2025 season. The 6-foot-1 sophomore has had a very interesting offseason as he entered the portal, flipped a commitment, and is now back in Lexington.
After the 2025 season, Gilmore committed to Louisville when he entered the transfer portal, then flipped his commitment to Baylor, and ultimately signed with the Bears. To end Gilmore’s portal saga, he’s now back in a familiar place with the Wildcats.
When the 2026 season begins, Gilmore will have two years of eligibility remaining.
Gilmore had a solid sophomore campaign with the Wildcats, appearing in all 12 games. His best game of the season came in the late-season loss against Vanderbilt. He tallied six catches for 55 yards in the game.
With Kentucky losing most of its wide receiver production from last season, this is a significant pickup, and it won’t be surprising if Gilmore is back in the starting lineup this fall.
As for the Aggies, the only name on the report is Mackenzie Mgbako, a one-time Kentucky target who remains out for the season after undergoing foot surgery. Texas A&M head coach Bucky McMilan said today that Mgbako will return next season, which would be a big boost for the Aggies before the offseason begins.
Kentucky vs. Texas A&M Injury Report
COVINGTON, Ky. (WKRC) – The Licking River Bridge was demolished Monday morning in a controlled blast, clearing the way for a replacement structure.
Authorities established a 1,000-foot safety perimeter, closed nearby roads and asked residents to shelter in place before the demolition. The bridge collapsed within seconds of the blast.
“Today we say goodbye to a bridge that has served Kentuckians for nearly a century and we make room for something new. A signature bridge that is safer, stronger and we make room for something new,” Gov. Andy Beshear said. “This region, like the rest of the commonwealth, is evolving, it is booming, it’s economy growing every day. What we’re doing together is building our new Kentucky home.”

Crews will begin construction on the new bridge after debris removal is complete. The replacement bridge is expected to open in the summer of 2028.
