The Kentucky football program is unexpectedly losing a former blue chip recruit 11 days before the transfer portal window closes. On3’s Matt Zenitz reports Kobi Albert has entered the transfer portal.
Kobi Albert was a huge coup for the Cats on Signing Day to close out the 2022 recruiting class. The long-time Auburn commit flipped to Kentucky, surprising many from his hometown of Fairfield, Al. He made the move even though his primary recruiter, Jon Sumrall, was hired by Troy just a few weeks prior.
A two-way star in the Birmingham metro, the 5-foot-10 speedster was a four-star recruit in two of the four major recruiting services.
