Kentucky Wildcats Football: Shannon Dawson Talks About Recruiting Success

The Kentucky Wildcats football team has been on the rise ever since the arrival of Mark Stoops prior to the 2013 season. The biggest reason for the rising success is the recruiting efforts, which have lead to the three highest recruiting class in school history thus far. Mark Stoops and Vince Marrow have been leading the way on this front, but it is some new blood that might take Kentucky’s recruiting efforts to the next level. New offensive coordinator Shannon Dawson, who replaced Neal Brown after he left to become the head coach at Troy, has stated early recruiting success as one of his favorite things about his new job.
