Kentucky Football continues to dominate backyard recruiting scene

In the case of Kentucky Football, success on the field has directly led to success off of it. Now a proven and consistent winner in the Southeastern Conference, the Wildcat coaching staff has established a monopoly on the local recruiting scene. With four impressive Bluegrass State prospects signing with Kentucky on Wednesday, the class of 2022 continued that trend.

Dane Key, Grant Bingham, Elijah Reed, and Jackson Smith make up this year’s group of home state products. Toss in five-star OT Kiyaunta Goodwin, who attends high school in Indiana but is a Louisville native, and it’s arguably the most top-heavy batch of in-state recruits Kentucky has ever hauled in.
