Here is everything that new Kentucky Commit Cherif Millogo said about his commitment to 247Sports. “Despite not playing during the spring or summer, Mark Pope and his staff never wavered in their pursuit and that combined with it being the best basketball fit allowed Millogo to go with the Wildcats.” - Eric Bossi. “ I have decided to commit to the University of Kentucky. It was a long journey and obviously the other schools were trying to get me. I feel like this, since a long time is the right place for me and I'm really excited about it. This is the best basketball decision for me” - Cherif Millogo. "I went on the visit there and I saw how they use their bigs for playmaking, the shooting, the defense, how they play their bigs in pick-and-roll situations, so I feel like this is a good basketball decision for me." - Cherif Millogo. Kentucky has the highest usage and assist for centers. With Malachi Moreno's development, there is no doubt in my mind Pope does a great job developing bigs. - EB. His recruitment was one where Pope needed to put in the work and the Kentucky coach delivered. - EB. "From the first time I talked to him, I felt like he was a good guy, he had a good mindset and that he is a good coach. I went on the visit to get a great feeling and I went there and after meeting all of the staff I feel like he is the best coach for me. I trust him a lot and I want him to be my coach as I continue my journey." Millogo also singled out assistants Mikhail McLean and Mo Williams for the roles they played in his recruitment. - EB "I'm grateful to coach Mikhail for believing in me from the first time he saw me play in June 2025 when I was still unranked, and to him and coach Mo Williams for recruiting me.” - Cherif Millogo. While he's still a bit of a mystery man, Millogo wants Kentucky fans to know they are getting a big personality and somebody driven to win. - EB. "I want them to know that I'm a funny guy. I like to work hard and I want them to know that I'm going to give everything for the team." Finally, Millogo's journey is one of inspiration, dedication and sacrifice. Making a move to an unknown place and leaving his family behind wasn't easy, but his bet on himselt is working out and he's ready for the next step in his journey. - EB. "This means a lot because this journey has been long and it is still going to go on, so I'm very excited about that. I feel like it's hard coming from my country. It has been a long journey. I had to make a lot of sacrifices coming here from my country with no family, but have a lot of good people around me here.” - Cherif Millogo. 247 Story: 247sports.com/college/basket… #BBN #KentuckyBasketball
