Kentucky transfer Rickey Hyatt Jr. has landed at South Alabama

Another former Kentucky player has found a new college football home. Class of 2020 signee Rickey Hyatt Jr. will be moving to the Sun Belt.

Back in June, the former defensive back at Kentucky announced that he will be transferring to South Alabama.

The Westerville (Ohio) Central product was a part of the 2020 recruiting class for Mark Stoops. The 6-foot-2 defensive back spent two seasons with the program and played in just one game during his career in the SEC.

Rickey Hyatt Jr. entered the transfer portal on April 20 and quickly started to see interest from Group of Five programs.
