Lately, the state of Kentucky has produced some great high school football talent.
With the Likes of Damien Harris, Kash Daniel, Landon Young, Drake Jackson and Jedrick Wills, the Bluegrass State has gained the attention of Power 5 Conference teams when it comes to recruiting. Just Recently, Nick Saban made a trip to Lafayette High School in Lexington to visit Mr. Wills, a five star offensive tackle.
There have been a few bluegrass boys in previous years that have been hot commodities. Kentucky football has made a great home in the state of Ohio, but a lot of talent can be found right here at home.
With National Signing Day concluded and the 2017 recruiting class set to make their way to campus, It’s never too early to speculate which in state stars the Cats are going after. At this point, the only recruit that Kentucky has managed to get to commit in the class of 2018 is Georgia three-star quarterback Jarren Williams. The young man has already managed to rack up other offers. Miami (Fl.), Mississippi St., Tennessee, Florida St., and Louisville are hard after the Kentucky Commit.
Here are three players in the high school class of 2018 that are being highly recruited. Look out for these names in the coming months during combine season. Hopefully the Cats can snag these athletes away from other Power Five schools.
