The Kentucky football 2023 recruiting class already has a pair of talented running backs committed. Franklin County’s (KY) Kaden Moorman and Parker’s (AL) Khalifa Keith expect to make up a backfield duo that could have an impact for years to come. But the coaching staff appears intent on adding a third ball carrier to the class.
Let’s back up for a second though. Following the conclusion of the 2022 season, Kentucky is set to lose a trio of running backs in Chris Rodriguez Jr. (who could still go down as the school’s all-time leading rusher), current starter Kavosiey Smoke, and recent transfer Ramon Jefferson, who will all graduate at the end of the year.
