Zvonimir Ivisic’s status as a Kentucky student-athlete has Big Blue Nation closely following every development in hopes of an official announcement. On Tuesday, the university publicly responded to recent reports.
It won’t be much longer before the Bluegrass State is up and running with a mouthwatering DraftKings Kentucky Promo Code. In the meantime, Kentucky sports bettors looking to edge the competition can pre-register with DraftKings Kentucky Sportsbook en route to a tremendous $200 Pre-Launch Bonus.
UK spokesperson Jay Blanton released a statement Tuesday on social media referencing an unnamed student-athlete. It is presumed to be about Ivisic after Wildcats insider Matt Jones of Kentucky Sports Radio reported Sunday that the signee was listed in the UK student directory.
“Unfortunately, misinformation is being perpetuated regarding the admission status of someone wishing to attend the University of Kentucky,” the statement reads. “The truth is members of our university – from our athletics department to our administration and all other units – are working together efficiently and in a manner that is consistent with the institution’s admissions standards. These are often complex issues, with multiple aspects to them, and they require many people, working to do the right thing for an individual wishing to attend the university. That is what we are doing. Spreading unfounded rumors helps no one.”
A 7-2 stretch center, Ivisic could be a key addition to John Calipari’s 2023-24 squad. He averaged 11.4 points, 5.3 rebounds and 3.4 blocks per game this past summer in the FIBA U20 European Championship playing for his home country of Croatia.
