Vito Tisdale will be a Kentucky Wildcat.
Ranked as a four-star prospect by 247 Sports and ESPN, the Bowling Green defensive back picked Kentucky over Alabama, Georgia and Texas A&M in a nationally-televised announcement during the All-American Bowl.
Recruited by Vince Marrow, Tisdale first received an offer from the University of Kentucky following his freshman season with the Bowling Green Purples. Ahead of his junior year Oklahoma, Alabama and LSU made serious moves to persuade Tisdale to leave the Commonwealth. Ultimately, the relationships established with Marrow and Mark Stoops convinced the former Louisville fan to join the Big Blue Nation.
