In the class of 2019, Jared Casey may have been the crown jewel. The Louisville (Ky.) Ballard product was a four-star prospect and the highest-ranked player in the haul. Expectations were high for the athletic linebacker.

After a position move combined with some time served in the program, Casey may finally be ready to make a splash in 2021. The chance to give the Wildcats some high-quality depth is certainly on the table.

The blue-chipper originally committed to Oregon on Oct. 11, 2018, before flipping and committing to Kentucky on Dec. 6, 2018, just two weeks before signing day.
