Dart, Maro, Sanders and another recent offer DQB Mikey Keene. UCF commit, offered him Oct 28.
Kentucky was 10-3 and 8-5 the last two years under Stoops. Better records than we’ve had. Not sure what you mean by “lower level”. More like mid-level. They’ve been raking in blue chip recruits the last few years.Boy Kyree Young RB and Tyler Maro OL would be two great ways to round out the class.
For Kyree Young - not sure why you'd want to go to a lower level sec program like Kentucky?? They don't seem to be that quality of a program right now..
For this recruiting class being a weird cycle where we haven't had the opportunity to hardly have many visit the school at all I think we have done a pretty nice job. Howard Brown, Jim Bonifas, Verdon, and Beau Fryler I think all going to be multiple year starters and impact guys. I also really like the slot wide receiver we got from KC area as well.
And Kentucky has been solid on RB’s as well.Kentucky was 10-3 and 8-5 the last two years under Stoops. Better records than we’ve had. Not sure what you mean by “lower level”. More like mid-level. They’ve been raking in blue chip recruits the last few years.
And Lexington is a whole bunch closer to Ohio than Ames.
