Gatewood was a top-50 player in the class of 2018 and committed to Auburn in 2015, only to enter the portal after losing the starting job to Bo Nix this season. Gatewood was the No. 1 athlete in the country according to 247 Sports.
In a massive get for Kentucky, the quarterback room is looking like one of the best it has ever been in Lexington with both Terry Wilson and Gatewood under center.
No word yet on if Gatewood and Kentucky will apply for an immediate play waiver, much like Xavier Peters, but if he does, we could see a QB battle for the ages with Gatewood and Terry Touchdown, along with Lexington Catholic QB Beau Allen.
