Kentucky Football Recruits: How Did They Do This Weekend?
Whichever way you want to look at it, Kentucky football is 4-0 in 2021. While the Wildcats were busy in Columbia, their incoming recruits were busy on the preps gridiron the last few days.
Here’s how future Kentucky football stars spent their weekend:
