Lane Kiffin has spent his first week as the head coach of the LSU Football program working to improve its 2026 recruiting class. Kiffin has seen several victories on that front, flipping three Ole Miss commits to LSU and holding on to a pair of 5-star prospects.
However, Kiffin suffered his first significant recruiting blow when 4-star WR Kenny Darby decommitted earlier this week. Now, Darby is heading to a different SEC foe.
4-star WR Kenny Darby commits to Kentucky
Darby announced on Friday that he is committed to Kentucky. It's a tough blow for Kiffin and LSU, who held a commitment from Darby for over a year.
