Let's say the NCAA's 5th year rule had always been around. Who are some Kentucky football or basketball players who realistically might have stayed for a fifth season who could have been difference-makers instead of supporting cast?

Tyler Fryman is on the clock!

Some of Kentucky's visiting commits had been to Lexington several times before the weekend.

It was only Miles Brown's second trip to UK. So it was a very important visit.

Let the Tennessee four-star tell you how it went. 👇

After his official visit OL Matthias Burrell says Kentucky's haters are going to be angry this fall.

After much prayer and consideration with my family, I am announcing my decommitment from the University of Louisville. Thank you to the coaching staff and I’m grateful for the relationships that were built through the process.

Congrats to the Sooners!

Seven straight CWS titles for SEC schools.

Looks like Kentucky is going to play about half of the top-25 in basketball this year. And we're reading complaints about the schedule. 😂

Will Stein is undefeated and Kelsey Gerald believes anything is possible.

He sums up the vibe after an official visit weekend he spent alongside more than a dozen future teammates:

"...can’t wait to be back for when we beat Bama"

Brady Hull (@BradyHull1) has been hand picked by Cutter Leftwich to be in Kentucky's storied line of centers.

After his official visit over the weekend Hull is more excited about UK than ever.

It does not appear this staff is slowing down.

EDGE defender Antonio Thomas Jr (@wankdabull66306) is a 5-star candidate from Tampa, Fla., and he loved Lexington in recent days.

He'll return for the Alabama game and the Cats are a major player already.

"This team and the culture are so much better than they were.”

Conrad Hart had a great time with fellow tight end commit Trae Proctor and a bunch of other future teammates this weekend.
