Holy hell, Kentucky football coach Mark Stoops has been absolutely cleaning house in the state of Ohio. UK now has the #6 ranked recruiting class, as graded by Rivals.com.
I never thought I would say UK football has the 6th best recruiting class in the country. The real question is, how will they fare in an extremely competitive SEC?

Give them a couple years and they will be competitive. In the SEC you have tiers of teams... 1st - only has LSU and Bama. Your perrennial national championship teams. Then your 2nd tier... Gamecocks, Bulldogs, Auburn, Florida, Gamecocks, a couple other teams ... Then you got UK, Vanderbilt, Vols, Ark. in the 3rd tier. They can be good occassionally but in terms of playing in the conference they are the beatin boys. I think UK can get to the second tier.

I would agree with that...the Kentucky fan base must be patient as they have to realize that this won't change overnight. If Stoops can continue to recruit heavy out of Ohio, the program will continue to rise

UK just moved up 2 spots to #4 with the commit of nico firios. Stoops has done big things in lexington this year and they havent even played a down yet. With the way the program has been recently, i believe these incoming recruits can come in and make an immediate impact. Only thing going against them is that they play in the SEC. Hopefully they can steal a game or 2 from a top 25 team but i dont see that happening this year.

I'm not going to lie, I didn't think Stoops would do this much already...it helps to have the last name Stoops and play in the SEC

After their first two games they face an absolute gauntlet. Louisville can go either way but I'd say taking half their games would be an accomplishment.
