Handcuffed by the SEC basketball schedule, Kentucky’s football coaching staff altered their schedule to use Rupp Arena as a recruiting tool.
Kentucky does not have many recruiting advantages over the SEC counterparts, except in the spring at Rupp. Each year one Saturday in late January or early February is christened as Junior Day. A star-studded recruiting event, it serves as the foundation for a successful recruiting class.
This picture from last year’s Junior Day featuring Beau Allen, Vito Tisdale, John Young and Izayah Cummings proved to be prophetic.
