For much of the Mark Stoops era at Kentucky, the Wildcats have been successful without a high-level quarterback.
That has changed of late as the transfer portal has helped Kentucky bring in Will Levis - who went on to be the fourth QB taken in this past year’s NFL Draft - and this year, Devin Leary - who was widely considered to be one of the best, if not the best, QB transfer available.
While the transfer portal has been great, those players usually come with only 1-2 years of eligibility remaining. Therefore, the staff has made it a point to start looking at the high school ranks for a QB.
