A highly-ranked defensive lineman won’t be making Lexington his college home.
On Friday afternoon, defensive lineman Dominic Kirks announced his commitment to the Washington Huskies. The four-star product out of Cleveland (OH) Villa Angela-St. Joseph chose Washington over the likes of Kentucky, Nebraska, Wisconsin, and Pittsburgh. Kirks was originally scheduled to officially visit UK the weekend of June 9-11, but canceled that trip the week of and instead went to Wisconsin.
Kirks is considered the No. 389 overall class of 2024 recruit according to the On3 Industry Ranking. Kentucky currently has 10 commits locked in for ’24, but none at the DL position.
