It is being reported, from the New Orleans Times Picayune) that Jewell Ratliff of McDonogh 35 HS (the same HS as UK QB Recruit Theltus Cobbins) in NewOrleans has signed with UK. Jewell is a 6 ft 2 in Linebacker with 4.6 speed who originally committed to University of Louisiana Lafayette. Ratliff was not originally cleared by the NCAA Clearinghouse, so he did not sign his letter of intent. He then signed with Kentucky in Mid-March over Arkansas, East Carolina, ULL, and Texas Tech. The article is dated May 12th, but almost noone has know of his commitment until today.

ReplyDeleteratliff was on the louisiana all state team and really blowed it up goooooo big blue im a kentucky football fan now
ReplyDeleteI have a feeling his recruitment isn't over yet. Hopefully he takes the Raymond Sanders approach and doesn't even talk to other schools who come calling. All indications suggest this kid is special!
ReplyDeleteHey Aaron he can not talk to any more schools because he's a wildcat now this kid loves football and a real good people person so it's a done deal thanks to tee martin that's who landed this kid he loves the school and the city of kentucky........what else you need to know about this kid feel free to ask
ReplyDeleteWe would like to interview him?
ReplyDeleteNow that's not a problem but someone have to get with tee martin are joker but tell me this what you would like to know..........GO big blue
ReplyDeletehe's a mean kid on the football field he knows the game i saw him play a few times and he just took some football players hart he's a very very smart foot ball player i'am real close to one of he's family members that's why i can tell you alot about this........ben looking for him a year now to see what school he went to and someone told me KENTUCKY i said look out wildcats
ReplyDeletehey i'm from alabama and you are right anonymous i was doing some things on the computer and saw he sign with uk he's a winner!!! i wish we the tide could have landed him all got a good one GOOD LUCK!!!GOOD luck RATLIFF and tell your bothers i said hello keep up the good work ray.....I mat these guys do to them haveing to leave for the hurricane real good people
ReplyDeleteIf he has "signed" with UK then why hasnt UK issued a news release about it? Calipari just did that on Friday after Jones & Vargas' paperwork was officially received at UK. So if he is signed and UK has his paperwork why continue to keep it a secret?
ReplyDeleteI don't know my friend but i can tell you this only thing i can is that he was leaveing ULL because he never signed a latter of intent so joker was makeing sure that all that stuff was truth that he never sign with that school are less the ncaa would have filed a tempring on uk so i say good job for get all the detells
ReplyDeleteThis kid is amazing I've seen him play personally. As a kid playing park ball he was always better than everyone else. I watched this kid grow up playing football from park to high school ball, he is going to be a wonderful addition to the UK program. His family is blessed with talent, older brother Ray is playing collegiality at Alabama A&M University also his brother Arthur is a tremendous talent but he just could never get himself together. Best of luck to Jewell Ratliff and his family God Bless. Go Wildcats...
ReplyDeleteArthur is heading to alabama A&M HE'S good kid as well
ReplyDeleteJust for the record everyone wanna know he's 6'2 236 and runs a 4.5 in the 40
ReplyDeleteI know Bill was trying to contact Ratliff for an interview. The guy sounds like a beast! The Cats could use him at LB/FB/TE or a variety of positions. I'm excited to watch him play this fall!
