Reigning Gold Glover and incoming Kentucky Baseball transfer Stephen Klein (Samford) will not be suiting up for coach Nick Mingione and the Wildcats next season after all, as it was revealed on Thursday night that he was not granted an extra year of NCAA eligibility, contrary to what he had been told two years earlier.
Klein’s full statement is below:
“Thank you Coach Mingione and Kentucky Baseball for believing in me this summer during the recruiting process. I want to thank God, my family, coach Joe and my other coaches for all the help through this unforeseen situation.
