Things didn’t go exactly as planned for Kentucky Football this weekend against Georgia. While Kentucky’s undefeated season came to an end, several commits of the future continued theirs on the high school gridiron this past week.

Here’s everything you need to know about how Kentucky’s football commits fared over the weekend in their respective games:

2022 Kentucky Football Commits:

Charlestown defeated Eastern 35-14 to win their eighth game in a row. As a result, their rushing attack passed 2,000 yards in the win over Eastern behind Goodwin and the rest of the offensive line.

Tyreese Fearbry: 4-Star Edge Rusher, Perry Traditional Academy (Pittsburgh, PA)
