Junior Day Thoughts and Reports

If you have been following this blog/site over the past few weeks then you are familiar with the 2011 recruiting names/targets considering UK. With that said, it has been confirmed UK is hosting Junior Day on March 7th and there will be a lot of recruits on campus that day. Why March 7th? UK hosts Florida in the final basketball game which is part of showing off the UK atmosphere.

Some people don't understand why the staff hosts so many recruits, but the answer is simple. Perception! Last weekend South Carolina hosted over 150 recruits for their Junior Day. Most of the time, getting the recruit on campus is the first step in landing their commitment. One thing is clear, Joker is swinging for the fences.

  • DeAnthony Arnett (WR)
  • Shamir Jeffrey (QB pictured) supposed to visit UK and UL the same weekend.
  • Kiaro Holts (OL)
  • Kris Harley (DT)
  • Nick Temple (S) questionable

  1. A few in-state kids that I thought would be on that list are not. Zack Templin(OL) East Jessamine and Ryan Smith (DL)Henry Clay are two from the area.

  2. I'm from Nicholasville and I agree with you about the Templin kid. He's right in UK's back yard and barely dinging there radar. While other KY. schools and schools from IN.,OH.,ILL.,WV. are busy recruiting him, UK is showing just enough interest to keep him interested.

  3. Both kids could easily show up for Junior Day...In fact, I expect most in-state kids to visit.
