Kentucky basketball coach Mark Pope has already reached out to 2025 recruit Tounde Yessoufou, who had plenty of great things to say about the program. Now, with the highly-regarded recruit setting up visits, it looks like he’ll make a trip to Lexington.
Yessoufou has been rising up the rankings, and is currently the number 28 overall player according to 247sports. They have him rated four stars, and he’s their eighth rated power forward in the class.

The recruitment of Yessoufou is heating up as he continues to play well. He has already visited Washington, Arizona, and USC, and is planning more visits. Aside from Kentucky, Tennessee and Kansas are in his plans. A date has not been set up yet for his visit to Lexington.
Yessoufou is a 6’5″ slashing wing who would be a tremendous asset in Mark Pope’s offense. It would be ideal if they get him into Lexington, and sell him on the program. He would be a fantastic piece of the puzzle going into 2025.
