UK Raids Louisville, Alabama and Michigan for Four Football Commitments in One Weekend

For the third time in the recruiting calendar year, campus was filled with blue chip recruits on official visits. Just like the first, most left campus ready to commit. This time it didn’t take quite as long.

The action started Saturday morning when Joshua Jones picked up the dice and committed to UK over LSU. Most high school offensive guards aren’t 6’5″ 300-pounds, but that’s how they grow them down in Alabama.

A few hours later, Jones handed the dice to Jordan Watkins. The fastest player in the state and one of the top competitors at UK’s football camp earlier this summer, the Louisville Butler wide receiver announced his commitment while officially visiting UK’s campus.
