Alabama transfer Khyree Jackson visits Kentucky

The Kentucky Wildcats made a big splash in the secondary Thursday with the addition of Cincinnati transfer JQ Hardaway. They’re looking to make another in the form of Alabama Crimson Tide transfer Khyree Jackson.

On Friday, Jackson posted on Instagram Live (via @bbn_now) that he was visiting UK, who offered him a scholarship when he entered the transfer portal last week.

The 6-foot-3, 197-pound native of Upper Marlboro (MD) was ranked as the No. 3 player in the 2021 JUCO rankings via 247 Sports. He picked the Tide while holding additional offers from the Auburn Tigers, Florida Gators, Georgia Bulldogs, Oklahoma Sooners, and LSU Tigers among many others.
