Former 5-star recruit Keeshawn Silver visits Kentucky Football

The Kentucky Wildcats football program very quietly got a big name on campus over the weekend, according to Justin Rowland of Cats Illustrated.

Rowland is reporting that Keeshawn Silver, a former five-star defensive lineman and North Carolina Tar Heels transfer, was indeed in Lexington over the weekend.

Silver is a North Carolina native who stayed home and played for the Tar Heels for two seasons. However, he opted to enter his name into the transfer portal on December 8.

While in Chapel Hill, Silver only played in five games in two seasons and played under two different defensive coordinators for the Tar Heels.
