Kentucky contacts Pop Isaacs; AJ Storr commits to Kansas
The Kentucky Wildcats have contacted one of the top transfer guards in the portal, while another one has found his next home.
According to KSR’s Jacob Polacheck, Texas Tech guard Pop Isaacs has been contacted by Kentucky.
A class of 2022 recruit, Isaacs signed with the Red Raiders while holding scholarship offers from Kansas, LSU, Oklahoma, Texas A&M, Iowa, Gonzaga, and Arkansas, among others. The Las Vegas native was ranked 82nd overall and 13th among point guards in 2022 via 247 Sports Composite.
The 6-foot-2, 180-pound Isaacs has been a full-time starter during his two years with the Red Raiders. In 59 career games (58 starts), he’s averaging 13.9 points (35.6% shooting and 32.7% from deep), 3.1 assists, 2.7 rebounds, 1.1 steals, and 2.4 turnovers in 31 minutes per game.
In January, Isaacs was accused in a civil lawsuit of sexually assaulting a minor during a team trip to the Bahamas in November. He has since denied those claims.
Elsewhere, former Wisconsin Badgers guard AJ Storr committed to the Kansas Jayhawks. Kentucky has previously made contact when John Calipari was still here, though I’d venture to say Mark Pope probably contacted Storr as well, being that he’s widely regarded as one of the five best players in the transfer portal.
The 6-foot-7, 205-pound Storr was a Second-Team All-Big Ten selection this past season after averaging 16.8 points and 3.9 rebounds. He really stepped up in the postseason, scoring 30 points in the quarterfinals of the Big Ten tournament against Northwestern, 20 points against Purdue in the semifinals, and 24 points against Illinois in the Championship game. He was, however, limited to just 13 points on 5/14 shooting in the Round of 64 NCAA Tournament loss to James Madison.

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.”
The Licking River Bridge is now history after crews brought it down with a controlled demolition Monday morning. (WKRC)

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.
