Kentucky Football Countdown: No. 17 JuTahn McClain

JuTahn McClain was one of Liam Coen’s favorite prospects entering the 2021 season. Could he become a breakout star in 2022? Let’s take a closer look at the Cincinnati native in Wednesday’s edition of the KSR Kentucky Football Countdown.

About McClain

Pronounced “juh-TAWN,” McClain was a sensation at Fairfield High School. Playing in the largest classification for high school football in the state Ohio, he nearly eclipsed 2,000 rushing yards in each of his final two seasons. He only came up 53 yards short of the milestone in 2019 thanks to an injury in the regular season finale.
