McDonald's All American Tyran Stokes took a swipe at the Kentucky Wildcats following Kansas' victory in the Champions Classic, remarking "Kentucky? Who is That?" according to reports. Stokes, a highly touted recruit, had been heavily linked to Kentucky before ultimately choosing a different path. The Jayhawks' win in the early-season showcase added fuel to the rivalry narrative.
The comments come as Stokes continues to draw attention as one of the top prospects in the 2026 class. Kansas' triumph in the Champions Classic reinforces their status as a national title contender, while Kentucky's recruiting miss on Stokes remains a talking point among college basketball observers.
