Kelvin Joseph transfers to Kentucky from LSU. Played in 12 games as true freshman at LSU and was a top 50 overall recruit out of high school. Big pickup for the Cats - he will be eligible to play in 2020.

Rumor has it his LSU teammate, Mannie Netherly, a former 4-star WR that LSU tried to convert to CB may be following him to Lexington.

I’ve heard a few things but hey it’s a great pickup for UK, it really is. He’s a diva but Stoops can deal with that.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m glad to get him, but there’s gotta be an issue for him to leave LSU for UK...

3 star safety Rickey Hyatt Jr. from Westerville Ohio commits to the Cats. He's listed as having offers from Penn State, Ohio State, and Notre Dame among others. Kentucky currently has the #22 ranked class in the country according to Rivals.

3 star WR Jordan Watkins from Louisville Butler decommits from Kentucky and is expected to commit to Louisville. Rivals has Kentucky in the lead for 4 star all-purpose back Michael Drennen from Dublin OH. Drennen is ranked as the #159 player in the country per Rivals.

Kentucky will keep recruiting well. They need to get straightened out on the field.

Drennen is better and I also believe he’s headed to UK based on all of my Ohio sources.

They go hand in hand. I don’t mean this as a knock against your Trojans in anyway, but USC will recruit well regardless of the play on the field. UK doesn’t have that luxury. The better UL and UC get, the harder it will be for UK to recruit.

In Kentucky yes but UL is irrelevant in Ohio.

That’s why I mentioned UC as well. With UC rolling and UL as an equally attractive option as UK it will make recruiting very, very difficult for UK.

True.
