There isn't a more well-rounded guard in the 2025 class than five-star Darryn Peterson. The 6-foot-5, 195-pound Peterson does a little bit of everything on the court and does it all well. There’s a reason his recruitment is overflowing with bluebloods and other heavy hitters, after all.
Following one of his Phenom United squad’s games at adidas 3SSB in Birmingham, Peterson spoke to Rivals about where things stand as they relate to his college recruitment and what might be next for his process.

ON COACHES THAT HAVE REACHED OUT RECENTLY:
“I just recently got a re-offer from coach [Mark] Pope and the Kentucky staff. At Arkansas, I’ve already talked to coach Chin [Coleman] and coach (John Calipari). I’m pretty sure I’m going to go visit there, too.”
ON CALIPARI TAKING THE ARKANSAS JOB:
“I thought he'd be there for life. He was telling me that I was coming there next year and all that, so I didn’t expect him to leave at all.”
ON THE MESSAGE FROM CALIPARI:
“He said he got a new job, but nothing has changed. They still want me. They are still going to have Kentucky-type everything.”

ON SCHOOLS IN THE MIX TO LAND HIS COMMITMENT:
“Kansas, Ohio State, Kentucky, Arkansas and North Carolina. There’s probably another one I’m forgetting. My dad knows all of them.”

RIVALS' REACTION
It’s unclear how serious things with Kentucky and Arkansas will get, seeing as both programs are under new leadership but both seem to have a puncher’s chance to climb into the thick of things should they get Peterson on campus during the fall or summer. Kansas and North Carolina seem like the most serious players for the time being.
