Kentucky made the hiring of new offensive coordinator Joe Sloan official on Monday. However, the new play caller in Lexington made his presence felt before that in recruiting when he helped the Cats secure a signature for four-star wide receiver Kenny Darby. The hiring of defensive coordinator Jay Bateman has not gone public yet, but the 52-year-old is already recruiting for UK.
Amid College Football Playoff prep for Texas A&M, Bateman was working the phones and issues a scholarship offer for Kentucky on Monday. Recruiting truly never stops.
