With 90 days until the first football game of the new season, it’s time to start familiarizing ourselves with next year’s freshmen. Considered one of Mark Stoops’ top recruiting classes during his time at Kentucky so far, this year’s team has the chance to be special. Leading the pack is Lynn Bowden.
Recruited as simply an “athlete” for the team, four-star Bowden played quarterback for his high school football team. He comes to Lexington from Youngstown, Ohio – which also brought the Wildcats Courtney Love and Jordan Jones. Bowden will likely be listed as a wide receiver at UK, but coaches and scouts agree that he can do much more than that.
