UKAthletics.com is live blogging this morning with video coverage from the "War Room" as the 2014 recruits send in their National Letters of Intent. Barker, Horton, Hendrix, Snodgrass, Stamps, C. Johnson, and T. Williams are already on board as early enrollees. UK is filling 21 other spots. The big rumor is that Mathis will not qualify but that UK will be filling his spot with 4* DE Lloyd Tubman from Louisville Seneca HS.

Add Ryan Flannigan ( Profile) and Nico Firios ( Profile). 24 of 28 in. Potential commit Lloyd Tubman will announce at his local library (school is out today for a snow day) here in about 45 minutes is what I'm hearing.

All 28 NLOIs are in. Hub bub is that Mathis will enroll in the fall, so we don't "lose" him.

This may be the first UK class I've seen where not one player was ranked below a 3* AND six 4* players. Stoops is absolutely bringing the talent in.
Stoops is set to have his presser at 1 pm. You can follow on UKAthletics.com.

ESPN is messed up. Looking at bottom line they have us at #9 recruiting class in the SEC when we have 6 recruits in the ESPN 300. Ole Miss and a few others ranked above only has 4. Do they average out the recruit rankings so it isn't about quantity?

Great day to be a Wildcat.
That NSD production they had over on UKAthletics.com was flat out awesome. Can't wait to get home tonight and watch it again. Had to miss about half of it for work. Highlights for those that missed it...
-The coaches and Couch doing game film was cool as hell, showed some real insight into what they are looking for in players.
-Freddie Maggard being on the broadcast was cool, I know how much he wants the program to succeed.
- Stoops was fired up, and had me crying on KSR talking about how he was hoping we landed Tubman before he announced (pretty much saying he already had his LOI in hand). He was almost Cal-ish in his swagger today.
- Said the Spring Game will be April 28th at 3pm. Can't be a night game because of the renovations and lighting issues. Start spreading the word now and lets pack Commonwealth.
Now, lets put together a competitive product on the field this fall and get 2015 off to an awesome start.
