Highly touted football recruit MJ Devonshire committed to the Kentucky Wildcats on Wednesday morning.
Devonshire — a 5-foot-11 cornerback from the Pittsburgh area — landed a UK scholarship offer last month and quickly emerged as one of the Wildcats’ top targets to finish out the 2019 class. Rivals.com ranks Devonshire as a four-star recruit and the No. 32 cornerback nationally. He joins outside linebacker Jared Casey, safety Moses Douglass and jack linebacker JJ Weaver as the fourth player in UK’s class with a four-star ranking from Rivals.
Pittsburgh and West Virginia were seen as the Cats’ main competition for Devonshire.
