4-star DT Josaih Hayes picks Kentucky

A day after securing two four-star recruits, the Kentucky Wildcats scored another one, as Josaih Hayes made his commitment on National Signing Day.

A 6-2, four-star defensive tackle, Hayes is Rivals’ 160th-ranked recruit and the second-best player from Missouri. The Horn Lake High School (MS) product was deciding between Kentucky and Ole Miss while also holding offers from top-tier programs like Alabama, Georgia and Auburn.

Hayes took part in the Mississippi-Alabama Football Classic in 2019 and was named First Team All-State and Class 6A All-State this year.

Back on December 6th, Hayes made an official visit to Kentucky.
