2015–16 newcomers

Recruit Isaiah Briscoe at the 2015 McDonald's All-American Boys Game

Isaiah Briscoe, originally from Newark, New Jersey, was the third highest rated point guard that Calipari had signed at Kentucky. He committed to Kentucky on November 13, live on ESPNU.[1] He chose Kentucky over St. John's. He was the nation's consensus top point guard, was ranked the consensus No. 13 overall player by the four main recruiting services Rivals, ESPN, Scout, and 24/7 Sports. He helped lead Team USA at the 2014 FIBA Americans U18 Championships to a gold medal.[2] He was a McDonald's All-America and Jordan Brand Classic game selection.[3][4]

Skal Labissière, originally from Haiti, was a consensus top five player in the 2015 class.[5] He moved to Memphis, Tennessee from his home country after an earthquake disaster in January 2010.[6] Labissière and Briscoe committed on the same night, minutes apart, on ESPNU. Labissière chose Kentucky over Memphis.[1] Calipari has likened Labissière to former Wildcats Anthony Davis and Nerlens Noel.[2]

Charles Matthews, originally from Chicago, Illinois, was the first commitment in the 2015 signing class on February 26, 2014.[7] Once considered a top-15 player in class, Matthews finished in the top-60 recruits on the four recruiting services.

Mychal Mulder, originally from Windsor, Ontario, was the first signee after the conclusion of the 2015 season. Mulder helped lead Vincennes University to a 33–2 record, earned JUCO All-America honors and was rated the 13th-best junior-college prospect in the country by 247Sports.com's composite ranking. He chose Kentucky over Creighton, Indiana, and Wichita State at a press conference on April 28.[8][9]

Jamal Murray, originally from Kitchener, Ontario, was the last signee for the 2016 season. Murray was originally a member of the 2016 recruiting class but reclassified to the 2015 class. Murray was rated a top-15 prospect by nearly every recruiting service and tabbed a consensus five-star recruit. Murray's stock began to soar following a breakout performance at the Nike Hoop Summit against the USA Basketball Team. He scored 30 points against the United States prior to a 29-point, 10-assist, eight-rebound effort in the BioSteel All-Canadian Basketball Game.[10][11]

On April 9 the University of Kentucky held a press conference for all players that intended to declare for the 2015 NBA draft. Seven players declared themselves eligible for the draft: Booker, Cauley-Stein, the Harrison twins (Aaron and Andrew), Johnson, Lyles, and Towns.[12][13] On April 13, assistant coach Barry Rohrssen left the team to join the St. John's staff under new head coach Chris Mullin.[14] On April 23 Poythress announced that he would return to Kentucky for his senior season.[15][16] On April 28 Mulder announced his decision to attend Kentucky at press conference.[8] On May 22 Tony Barbee, who served as special assistant to Calipari in 2015, was officially announced as Rohrssen's replacement on Calipari's staff.[17][18] On June 24 Murray announced his decision to Kentucky televised on Canada's TSN, donning a Canadian flag.

Off-season rankings

The earliest preseason predictions were made the day after the 2015 NCAA tournament on April 7, before final decisions by college players about declaring for the 2015 NBA draft and before many high-school players signed a National Letter of Intent about their 2015 seasons. Despite the speculation that most of the 2015 roster would declare for the NBA draft, ESPN ranked Kentucky as its top ranked team for the 2015–16 season.[20] Sporting News projected that Kentucky would be one of the top five teams.[21] CBSSports.com ranked Kentucky as their number three team in their initial rankings.[22]

Events

On May 21 Kentucky released the non-conference portion of its schedule.[26] The schedule is highlighted by marquee match-ups at Rupp Arena and across the country. Kentucky will travel to Chicago to play defending National Champion Duke in the annual Champions Classic, to Los Angeles to play UCLA for its first ever game at Pauley Pavilion, to Miami to play South Florida and former assistant Orlando Antigua, and to Brooklyn to play against Ohio State in the annual CBS Sports Classic. Kentucky will also host Arizona State and in-state rival Louisville. On August 19 the SEC released its schedule for the upcoming season.[27]
