Kentucky makes cut for Eugene Hilton, son of former NFL great

Eugene Hilton is one of the most talented wide receivers in the Midwest. His name carries a lot of weight in the state of Indiana, but it’s Kentucky who’s left a lasting impression on the 2025 recruit.

On Tuesday night Hilton revealed that he’s cut his list of potential suitors to six. Kentucky is joined by Ole Miss, Miami, Wisconsin, Missouri and FIU. Florida International may seem a little out of place for a talented athlete that’s already a four-star recruit in one service, until you learn that his father is the greatest player in the program’s history.
