Kentucky added an off-ball linebacker to the roster on Sunday when three-star prospect Antwan Smith committed to the Wildcats on Sunday following his official visit. Unfortunately, another target at the position came off the board on Monday afternoon.

Nashville (Tenn.) CPA linebacker Crews Law committed to North Carolina on Monday following an official visit to Chapel Hill over the weekend. Law was scheduled to return to Lexington this weekend for an official visit with UK.

“It checked every box for me,” Law told On3 about North Carolina. “Obviously with football, they had a nine-win season last year and they’re far from satisfied with that. I’m a competitor and a winner who likes to win so that felt right. I believe that they’re going to keep winning and they’re not even close to their ceiling yet so I won’t to be a part of that.”

The No. 734 ranked prospect in the 2024 On3 Industry Ranking just completed an official visit to Vanderbilt last weekend. UK had hosted the prospect for multiple unofficial visits during the recruiting process.

Kentucky has six scholarship linebackers on the roster in 2023 with true freshman Grant Godfrey beginning his career at EDGE. Antwan Smith will help fill a need for position coach Mike Stoops, but Kentucky could use another high school addition to the room this cycle. Look for some other prospects to emerge at the position before we get to singing day in December.
