USATSI

Kentucky is in the market for arguably the most-talented player in the transfer portal.

Joey Gatewood announced last week his intentions to find another college football home. Once Kentucky fans heard the name, they were intrigued, but questions arose when they heard he was an Auburn quarterback.

And that’s an understatement. Gatewood is the kind of talent that you take no matter the circumstances. A four-star prospect and a consensus top 50 recruit, Gatewood was an Elite 11 finalist and an Under Armor All-American after passing for 1,468 yards and 12 TD and rushing for 1,100 yards with 16 scores as a high school senior in 2017.
