I took a minute to look the rivals websites for all of the SEC teams hosting a home game this weekend. It’s amazing to see what a huge recruiting weekend it is for literally every team in the conference hosting a home game. SEC teams are going all out to flip 2025s and hosting many of their top 2026 targets this weekend.
However, when you look at what’s happening in Lexington this weekend from a recruiting standpoint, it’s the polar opposite. We have a 5.5 3-star officially visiting. Not a peep about anyone else. It’s as if they aren’t even trying at this point. What else do you need to see to comprehend that this staff is mostly checked out at this point?
If I were Barnhart, THIS would be the sign that the Stoops Era is effectively over. Yeah, he’s gonna come back next year to collect his check, but these guys are done and they’re not even trying to hide it at this point.
