On the afternoon of National Signing Day you see a variety of emotions from football coaches, from tired and relieved to ecstatic. We saw the latter today from the Kentucky football coaches, none more so than Lamar Thomas.
Kentucky’s wide receivers coach was dapper, as usual, but he had an extra pep in his step. Known as a trash-talker, Thomas is actually quite the opposite in most interviews, speaking softly with reservations. That was not the case today after five new players signed on the dotted line to join his meeting room.
The best of the bunch is the best overall recruit in the 2017 class.
