The Kentucky Wildcats faced a lot of kicking and overall special teams issues last season, and Mark Stoops responded by hiring Jay Boulware.

The former Texas and Oklahoma special teams coordinator was tasked with finding a placekicker to replace Matt Ruffolo.

On Saturday, the Cats landed a commitment from specialist Jackson Moore out of North Carolina. He announced the news on Twitter.

The 5-foot-10, 150-pound Moore is a five-star kicking prospect according to National Kicking Rankings. He plays at Marvin Ridge High School in Waxhaw (NC).
