LEXINGTON, Ky. — With college basketball dribbling its way into February, college football’s official national signing day may have slipped under your radar.
It was last Wednesday, in fact. Actually, the new real class of 2023 signing day was Dec. 21, 2022. That’s the “early signing day” when the vast majority of high school prospects pledge their allegiance to the college program of their choosing. Or the program’s choosing. Last Wednesday was for the add-ons.
How did the local Division I program fare? The 247Sports gurus ranked Kentucky’s class 31st overall, 12th among the 14 SEC schools. Rivals was more optimistic, placing the Cats’ haul 26th nationally and 11th in the conference.
