Nine days after losing an offensive line commitment, the University of Kentucky football program picked up a bigger one.

John Young, a 6-foot-6, 280-pound offensive tackle who plays for Christian Academy of Louisville, committed to the Wildcats on Sunday night. Young is considered a four-star prospect by 247Sports, which tabs him as the state’s No. 4 player and the 28th-best offensive tackle in the class of 2020.

Young joined Lamar Goods — a four-star defensive tackle who picked the Cats earlier this month — as UK’s only 2020 commitments.
