Four-star linebacker Jared Casey just backed off his pledge to the Oregon Ducks, and he now has a new decision date set.
Casey is listed as the No. 18 inside linebacker in the 2019 class according to the 247 Sports Composite rankings. The Ballard High School star will likely be choosing between the Oregon Ducks, Louisville Cardinals, Wisconsin Badgers, and Kentucky Wildcats, his original finalists before picking Oregon.
From Avery Williamson to Courtney Love to Jordan Jones, and now Kash Daniel, Kentucky’s defense has been anchored by strong linebackers under Mark Stoops.
