    8th Grader commits to Wildcats

    http://rivalshoops.rivals.com/content.asp?SID=910&CID=803673


    To hear Howard Avery describe it, Kentucky coach Billy Gillispie knew nothing of his son when their paths happened to cross at a recent AAU basketball event.

    As fate would have it, though, that chance encounter led to a scholarship offer from the Wildcats and perhaps the earliest verbal commitment in the history of college basketball's winningest program.

    The thing is they are verbal committments....they cant sign for a couple of more years.

    Anything can change in that time.
