Didn't Clark have to leave early Sat but is to return at some point? Also, isn't Skinner due in for the SCAR game?I hadn’t seen it from Wiltfong but Rowland been saying that for awhile. Clark was at the game Sat
"Only a 3 star" but is typically underrated by the "experts.". Look at his film, the guy hits a ton, plays angry.Dyllon Williams a mizzou safety commit is officially visiting this weekend. Only a 3 star but seems to be a top target for the staff. Was scheduled to visit during the summer but committed to mizzou before making the trip. Could be a repeat of the Cam Dooley situation last year. Maybe Buffano can do something for us
Saw elsewhere that since he missed last year with an injury that if he successfully completes this year he'll be reevaluated and probably bumped up. BTW, to me on film he looks bigger than 260 but weight is good weight. FWIW.BTTT.
Jayden Clark a 6’ 5” 260 pound OL prospect from Clayton, Ohio is our 18th commitment for 2025. He is graded by Rivals as a 5.6 Three Star prospect.
This lifts our 2025 Class to a current ranking of 27th on the Rivals system. Of the 26 classes ranked above UK’s, 21 have more commitments.
Said to be 6-4 or 6-5 and 305. Definitely looks like a 300 pounder.Saw elsewhere that since he missed last year with an injury that if he successfully completes this year he'll be reevaluated and probably bumped up. BTW, to me on film he looks bigger than 260 but weight is good weight. FWIW.

He's also up to 295 lbs now.I just read on another site that Nicolas Smith, our Georgia DL commitment, has picked up an offer from Alabama.
Oddly, he is rated among the lowest of our commitments, but I suspect he’ll crack the top 1,000, now.
It’ll be interesting to see if we can hold onto him!!
They interviewed him after that offer and he said he was NOT visiting AL. He said that UK gave him a chance and he was not going to break his promise to us. All UK now.I just read on another site that Nicolas Smith, our Georgia DL commitment, has picked up an offer from Alabama.

Recall when he committed him saying he's built a solid bond with Anwar Stewart.They interviewed him after that offer and he said he was NOT visiting AL. He said that UK gave him a chance and he was not going to break his promise to us. All UK now.
He hasn’t been mentioned in a while. There was another WR they mentioned lately that UK offered.Any word on DJ Miller the WR prospect or any other WR prospects?

In another note our top CB recruit Dwayne Galloway has decommitted from Purdue. UK didn’t imitate the decommittment but has already been in contact with him. Penn St, WVU, Illinois, and a few others have already been in contact according to a tweet I seen
Not at allIn a related vein, TOS posted an article that the DB committed to UK from Paducah continues to be recruited hard by Auburn. Any chance these might be related?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks Hack. I know he’s one of the lower rated kids committed so far, but from the first time I watched his film, he became my favorite recruit. Something about the kid screams superstar to me and he has a ton of potential to get better and better. I think with our coaching staff the sky is the limit for him if his head and heart are serious about football. He sure plays like he loves the game and has the body to put on or even take off any amount of weight he needs to play all over the field. I really want to hold on to him and I can’t believe he’s not in the top 300 range right now. Looks like a top 100 prospect to me in my opinion.I just read on another site that Nicolas Smith, our Georgia DL commitment, has picked up an offer from Alabama.

Now that’s awesome. I swear I love this staff, they really do a fantastic job and work their tails off.They interviewed him after that offer and he said he was NOT visiting AL. He said that UK gave him a chance and he was not going to break his promise to us. All UK now.
That's how I feel about Javeon Campbell, the guy has unlimited potential. And don't forget Brian Robinson lurking too. And Gadson, Gilbert, Saunders, Jerod Smith and Zeismer. Love what they're doing building a DL to replace the DL UK's losing.Thanks Hack.

lol. I hear you. It’s amazing to think about the young talent we have and coming.That's how I feel about Javeon Campbell, the guy has unlimited potential. And don't forget Brian Robinson lurking too.

Mikkel Skinner committed to UK last night and threw a South Carolina hat for good measure. He said his recruitment is shut down and will early enroll. He keeps rising in the rankings and is up to a top 200 player on 247. I'd expect a bump on rivals soon. Will likely be our only TE in this class. I'm a huge fan of this pickup!
The problem with being 20th in recruiting is 10 schools ahead of us are in SEC . Mizzou has outrecruited us 2 years now, how does that happenThat’s a big commitment.
We are now 20th on Rival’s point system
for our 21 recruits, and 21st for average Star rating.
Stoops and company are rolling along in what they have done most consistently: heightening Kentucky’s football recruiting profile.
Now we need wins to hold onto both the staff and recruits!
Agree. It's the development & coaching that separates those teams.Mizzou has been a better team the last two years. They also have a larger Metro area in state that produces a lot of players. Proximity to Texas does not hurt either.
The difference in 10-25 in recruiting rankings is damn near nothing and based on what analysts think which is sometimes WAY off.
