Thanks to the team building options that the transfer portal now provides, roster construction never sleeps in college football. With a couple of available scholarships, Kentucky went after Texas State defensive back Zion Childress late in the process.
After considering both TCU and Washington, the Wildcats won out in this recruitment as defensive coordinator Brad White has added a third transfer to his secondary following a commitment from Zion Childress. The former high school quarterback out of New Caney (Texas) High hails from the Houston metro area and did not play defense until enrolling at Texas State.
