Kentucky has announced the signing of Jaland Lowe. Mark Pope: "Jaland is an incredibly explosive, playmaking, veteran point guard. He’s a great kid who has a tremendous work ethic and most importantly, loves this game and wants nothing more than to win.”

We've got CFB holdouts.

Sources: Tennessee QB Nico Iamaleava did not attend Tennessee spring practice today. He’s been in conversations with Tennessee about a new contract. The no-show of practice came as a surprise. https://t.co/VXsXTPDZpu
