Kentucky has landed a new five-star recruit, who promises to provide instant energy — and a lot of perspective — for the team this season.
Luke Klausing, an 11-year-old from Louisville who is battling cystic fibrosis, announced his intention to become a part of UK’s team at a mock news conference on Wednesday morning at Kroger Field.
The grade-school wide receiver picked from three different Kentucky hats and signed a “national letter of intent” thanks to a national organization called Team IMPACT, a nonprofit that connects local college athletic teams with children facing serious and chronic illnesses.
