Wisconsin QB transfer Graham Mertz to Kentucky?

[All State Baseball]

Brett Greenberg who identifies as a digitial producer of WKRG in Mobile AL. Says it’s a done deal. Matt Jones says he’s not heard it’s done yet but that Kentucky is still heavily interested in him. 
 

He’ll have 2 years of eligibility left. 
 

2,136 Pass Yards, 19 TD’s, 10 INT.

Nothing very impressed with his stats at Wisconsin.  He should have some pretty good targets to throw to at UK but I'm not sure if that's enough.  Guess we need to wait and see if it even happens first.

Unless this is Coen's guy, no thank you.

Average quarterback for an average team. Goes hand in hand.

Is this the plan for UK now?  Getting QB's from the portal as opposed to recruiting a freshman to play?

Are the strategies mutually exclusive?

I think it's possible to try to recruit/develop a QB, but use the portal when necessary.

Mertz evidently visited Florida this weekend. This may not be as locked up as many think.

The portal has changed recruiting a ton. Teams aren’t recruiting kids like they used to since they can go out and get a portal kid. The days of recruiting a freshman QB and developing him (or any number of other positions) is getting smaller.
