July 22, 200818 yr Lot of solid 3 star talent mouting up in the Cats camp. I like it! Now, if we can just get a committment from a big time QB
July 22, 200818 yr Kentucky gets a lot of players from LaGrange... :thumb: Lagrange Ga. has been very good for Kentucky. I hope the trend continues.
July 22, 200818 yr :thumb: Lagrange Ga. has been very good for Kentucky. I hope the trend continues. I agree. That one location that needs extra special attn. :thumb: I think the Cats are as close as I have seen in years to turning the table. They have been a lower tier SEC team, and now have moved to a middle tier team. Getting guys like this are what is needed to challenge the big boys. Go Cats!!
July 22, 200818 yr www.lagrangefootball.com Click on video's and watch #2 ... his defensive instincts and tackling is absolutely sick! Wow! I really like the way this kid plays, ... at full speed! Nice pickup for the Cats! :thumb:
July 22, 200818 yr Hopefully these 3stars start turning into some 4stars. I believe they will. :thumb:
July 23, 200818 yr 4 Stars would be nice but a roster full of 3 stars would be fine too. Seems like UK has had a mix of 3 stars and 2 stars in years past. This year, they don't seem to be targeting the 2 star prospects.
July 23, 200818 yr Hopefully these 3stars start turning into some 4stars. I believe they will. :thumb: Does it matter? He's now a Cat. He can go to 1 star but it doesn't change his ability to make plays.

This year, they don't seem to be targeting the 2 star prospects. Everyone knows and goes after the 5-star and 4-star players. It is easy to identify them as recruits. The real art to recruiting is to find the lowered rank players who are players to develop. This is where Kentucky needs to become more proficient in recruiting. Just because the Floridas, Southern Cals, Texas, and Ohio States aren't knocking on a recruits door, does not mean the player can become an all-American.
July 23, 200818 yr I agree. My point was that in the past couple years UK has had a fairly even mix of 2 and 3 starts but this year it seems that we are not having to "settle" (even though many may be good players) for 2 star recruits.

Rich Brooks would tell you that some of Kentucky's 2 and 3 star recruits would be ranked higher if the signed at a Florida, Ohio State, or another powerhouse school.
July 24, 200818 yr I think there is some truth to that frankly. I pay NO attention to a downgrade OR upgrade AFTER the kid has committed.
August 5, 200818 yr Tristan Johnson committed to the Cats today. He is the Cats 14th verbal in the 09 class, 9 of which are rated 3-stars on Rivals.

August 5, 200818 yr Another score for the Wildcats. They also got another verbal yesterday from another LaGrange young man, the name escapes me. He is a 6-3 225 lb. DE.
