Kentucky is gaining steam in recruitment of 5-star Barion Brown

Nashville (Tenn.) Pearl Cohn wide receiver Barion Brown is the No. 14 prospect in the class of 2022 and a five-star prospect. The 6-foot-1 receiver has major vertical speed and is a playmaker that every college football program is looking for. Only one wide receiver ranks higher than the Tennessee speedster.

Recruiting at the wide receiver position must improve for Kentucky to keep climbing the ladder in the SEC East. That was once again proven in the loss to No. 1 Georgia. Mark Stoops and his staff are looking to change that.

On Wednesday, On3’s Chad Simmons believes that the tides could be turning in Brown’s recruitment, and the Wildcats now look like the team to beat for the blue-chipper.
