Kentucky has In-State Football Recruiting Momentum

@Robinson_era

Not long ago, many believed Kentucky was behind the eight-ball in in-state recruiting. Now the Cats have momentum with four four-star recruits entering the final stretch of the 2019 recruiting season.

The Commonwealth’s top eight 2019 prospects are consensus four-star players. Half of them decided early on they wanted to play college football outside of the state. When Alabama, Notre Dame and Virginia Tech received high-profile commitments, many worried Mark Stoops lost his touch. Then he let the Big Dog loose.

Since Marrow assumed the lead for in-state recruits, the Cats have been on a role.
