New UK 2026 OV schedule, based on today's most recent information.
Oscar Rios (QB, Downey, CA) and Terry Wiggins (LB, Coatesville, PA) OVed UK on April 11. Subsequently, Wiggins committed to PA St. Rios remains uncommitted but the most recent information suggests he might be leaning to OK St although that is not clear yet.
After Rios, UK's next QB priority in the 2026 class is Matt Ponatoski of Cincinnati, who likes UK, UC, OR, MI but has not yet scheduled an OV anywhere to date.
Generally speaking, the coaching staff tries to line up the most important visits first. But there are exceptions because scheduling can be complicated for lots of reasons including conflicts and unrelated preferences.

Heze Kent, OL/DL, Brunswick, GA, is currently committed to Miami. He is being recruited by Coach Marrow and may OV UK sometime in June but that is still being discussed.
Ford and Mohring are teammates at Malvern Prep Academy.
For those still concerned about UK's 2026 football class, this is an excellent, large OV schedule and our coaches will sign our share of these players. Players do not go to the trouble to take an OV unless they are interested, and UK's campus and facilities are impressive. Our coaches are obviously recruiting the OL, WRs, RBs, DL, and DBs hard. There will be some more important OVs in the fall too. There always are.
Andre Clarke and Marcus Almada were previously scheduled to OV UK but are not currently scheduled. Those ships have apparently sailed.
BTW, I am attending a business meeting in Atlanta this weekend, my first significant travel since my health "spell" last year. It's a step back to normality for me. Last night, I saw Ronald Acuna hit a 467 ft home run at Truist Park. I have seen a lot of Cincinnati Reds games at Crosley Field, Riverfront Stadium, and the Great American Ball Park. I have seen occasional games at Wrigley Field, Tropicana Field, Busch Stadium, and in Atlanta. I once saw a couple Dodger games at Chavez Ravine. Back in the day, I even saw an Expos game once at Olympic Stadium in Montreal. But I am pretty sure Acuna's moon shot last night was the farthest I have ever personally seen a human hit a baseball. Incredible player, and an amazing home run considering it was Acuna's first plate appearance in a year due to a knee injury.
