In its continued search for talented wide receivers to fill out the 2017 recruiting class, Kentucky has turned to a player already committed to one of its league rivals.

Jacquez Jones — a 5-foot-11 prospect from Clearwater, Fla. — has been committed to Tennessee since May, but UK quarterbacks coach Darin Hinshaw was at his house for a recruiting visit Monday night, and Jones told the Herald-Leader that he’ll still consider the Wildcats in the lead up to national signing day in February.

I see 14 on the commitment list. Only three DL with DT's. Don't we need to recruit OL and DE's? OLine is losing a lot of players (6?).

Thought is was okay for Cole Bentley to go to UL. Didn't need O linemen.[winking]

Biggest loss on the line is Toth. Real good centers are killer to replace. Always looking for tackles....guard I think we're ok on.
D line, d line, d line, and more d line.

Don't know where that came from, UK loses 3 this year and maybe 3-4 next. Could've meant 6 over the next 2 years, I don't know.
I was including walkons and was looking at the roster on this site, basing it on seniors. I don't have as much time as I used to to follow recruiting and all the players so maybe some listed as seniors can redshirt and still be here.

Dylan Greenberg (NCAA lists as Junior, Rivals listed as senior)
Nick Haynes (NCAA lists as Junior, Rivals listed as senior)
Kyle Meadows (NCAA lists as Junior, Rivals listed as senior)
Ramsey Meyers (NCAA lists as Junior, Rivals listed as senior)
Cole Mosier
Zack Myers
Jon Toth

are all listed as seniors so I guess I shouldn't pay any attention to Rivals roster. It appears that 4 that I thought were gone will be back next year.

George Asafo-Adjei
David Baumer
Blake Best (LS)
Luke Fortner
Drake Jackson
Tate Leavitt
Wells Purdom
Tristan Salyer
Sullivan Simpson
Jervonteus Stallings
Logan Stenberg
Mason Wolfe
Landon Young

Were listed as underclassmen.

Ramsey Meyers and Greenberg (walk-on who never played except against Austin Peay, I believe) participated in Senior Day as juniors.

Very encouraging. We need a super class and maybe we are in the position to get one.

OG- Ramsey Meyers gave up his final year of eligibility and went through senior day.
Okay - 2 OL and 1 DL. Lol. We're still in pretty good shape though.

Although I do agree that we need at least 1 or 2 more OTs in this class - no question. Next years class will need to be heavy on OL no doubt.

Starters yes but Toth, R. Meyers, Z. Myers and Greenwood in the OL overall.
But none of them play, except Toth and R Meyers, and the latter doesn't play much.

I guess I dont understand the line of thinking that we will be missing players who never saw the field. And that's not a knock on their contribution to the program.

But what do I know.

I was attempting to respond to the comment UK "will lose a lot of OL(6?)'...didn't differentiate between starters and nonstarters.
