“Might be good news for UK football in portal”

JR predicted Grace to UK. Tru Edwards also made his visit. The NMSU had a good visit to UK but has been to 2-3 schools since. Conner Moore an Ohio kid from MT State, is another LT they after and today they offered his teammate a really good TE. The TE had almost 500 yds and 9 TDs. Looks like the TE is gonna visit
 
Alright, I'll admit Stoops has done a great job in the portal so far. Better than I expected.

I was salty at first because the season was so depressing. And I thought we'd definitely be better than 4 and ****ing 8.

Get Grace, Edwards and a couple others and it'll be a really nice transfer portal class.

If we get Grace all we'll need is a Left Tackle and I'll be extremely pleased with all of the turnover through the transfer portal!!!

Now whether Coach Stoops can do any better with the new players is still a HUGE question mark. But I am hopeful that he is willing AND ready to get back to expecting his players to work hard and be MORE disciplined!!!

It's the ONLY way he gets HIS program back to where it was 5 years ago.
 
So he played at south Dakota? Not south carolina or south Florida? South Dakota?
South Dakota is one of the better programs in FCS (they beat eventual champions NDSU in the regular season before bowing out in the playoff semifinals), and 24/7 has Grace as a 4 star transfer and 11th best edge rusher in the portal. Of course nothing is ever guaranteed in recruiting, but there’s a solid chance that he can actually play.

Thanks for the info. I don't follow fcs much at all.

Wasn't he also the defensive player of the year in FCS?

Thought I read that in one of the articles.

This young man will have options. Besides UK, several other P4 programs have offered.

I sense that they have come to the conclusion that getting small school standouts that want to move up get high visibility and a shot at the League, is a safer choice as opposed to getting P4 team's 4 stars that "for some reason" have not played a lot, have been injured or underperformed.
And I’m fine with that
“Grace? She died thirty years ago.”
“The Blessing!!!”

Figured. Lots aggregating the work of others. Prob trying to get his start and thinks this will help. Tale as old as “premium message boards” been a thing. Once news/gossip became something you had to pay for it was inevitable.

Sure seems that way and imo is a massive improvement over the diva mentality that wrecked the last two seasons. This new approach is actually giving me hope we'll get back to hard work and a coach driven program; and have a reasonably good season.
