Kentucky football opens 2023 season with important recruiting weekend

There were some big names on Kentucky’s campus for Saturday’s season-opening 44-14 win over Ball State — emphasis on big.

The Wildcats hosted over a dozen high school prospects to kick off the 2023 season, including three-star ’24 LB Devin Smith for an official visit, but none were more important than a trio of four-star ’24 defensive targets. EDGE Brian Robinson, DL Jerod Smith, and EDGE Jacob Smith all made the trip to Lexington on Saturday for a notable visit.
