Kentucky football hosting high-profile recruits for season opener

The 2023 Kentucky football season is officially less than 24 hours away. Actually, as of the time this post went live, we’re now under the 18-hour mark. The Wildcats will kick off the schedule with a matchup against the Ball State Cardinals at noon EST on Saturday afternoon. It’s going to be an early tailgate for those who plan on making the trip to Kroger Field, but you should consider the noon kick-time as a blessing — it’s gonna push 90 degrees by the third quarter.

The start of the season is also an important time for what’s happening off the field.
