Three Local Kentucky Targets Featured in Updated Rivals250 Rankings

Despite a recruiting dead period through the month of May, the show must go on for the class of 2022. This week Rivals is unveiling its new rankings for rising seniors as their recruitment kicks into a higher gear.

Three local prospects hit the board in the latest edition of the Rivals 250, all three of which are being recruited by the Wildcats. In a bit of a surprise, Gavin Wimsatt is not the highest-ranked player.

Offensive tackle Kiyaunta Goodwin rose 15 spots to No. 54 overall. The enormous 6-foot-8 four-star prospect first made waves on the recruiting scene when he was offered by Kentucky and Georgia as an 8th grader.
