YAHTZEE! Minnesota LB De’Niro Laster commits to UK

It’s been a while, can I get a YAHTZEE! As we expected, linebacker De’Niro Laster committed to UK on his visit today, tweeting out the picture above minutes ago. The Ohio native played at Minnesota last year, but wanted to transfer closer to home. Where does Kentucky come in? Laster was high school teammates with current UK wide receiver Dorian Baker. Also, you know, Vince Marrow.

Laster will have to sit out the 2015 season, but will have two years of eligibility remaining. He’ll bring some much needed help to a position that needs it in 2016.
