FB: COMMITMENT WATCH AND FUTURE RECRUITING
- Thread starter TheResistance
- Start date
I did a quick Google and ChatGPT search. IF accurate:
We currently have nine four-star recruits committed for 2027, which is a record for one season at UK. The most before that was in 2019, when we had eight. Bayonne would obviously make 10. If you have better research, please correct me.
Stein's Studs.

What’s even more exciting, it’s his very first one. It’s only going to get better as he develops relationships and shows his product on the field.
Just goes to show you the uphill climb we have to be consistently relevant in football. Stein is putting together the best recruiting class in school history (since the star system started), and we're still ranked 21st. And 9th in the SEC.
The big dog looking like a puppy these days.
Somebody at Alabama is gonna be fired for giving him such a massive contract and sucking this bad for Bama standards.
Good grief is every sec school in top 20 lol
All These 4 stars Stein is racking up will eventually turn into recruiting some 5 stars. It’s just a matter of time before the talent level across the board is good enough to attract more talent. What’s the old saying “iron sharpens iron”.
Winning with those 4*s will turn into getting 5*s. Eventually has nothing to do with it.
Obviously he has to win I thought there was enough intelligence to know that part.
21st in the entire country but 9th in the SEC. Just insane.
Adding a ninth conference game royally sucks. Amazingly we had many UK fans complaining about playing three cupcake games when our schedules have always been plenty difficult and we have always been ground down by attrition as it was. Hopefully Stein proves to be so good we can thrive but he is really up against a monster task. UK's schedules have ranked more difficult than the national average every single season following Bryant's 11-1 1950 season.

This will be interesting to track. UGA, TX, OU, A&M and Bama with the fewest transfers but are the conferences favorites. LSU & Ole Miss with huge classes and huge expectations. I think you see UGA, TX, Bama, LSU, and A&M really separate this year.
How I see every team this year:
Alabama: 10-2 (Keelon Russell is a guy, they fix the run game, and the defense is improved)
Arky: 3-9 (Just don't have a ton of talent, a really tough schedule, and a coach with no P5 experience)
Auburn: 6-6 (Brown will be electric, but the talent is thin this year)
Florida: 6-6 (Similar to Auburn, but without the superstar QB)
UGA: 10-2 (They are the team until someone dethrones them. WR room could be an issue, but 2 great TEs)
Kentucky: 6-6 (If the starters stay healthy, the talent is there to compete every week. Can Minchey elevate the team?)
LSU: 10-2 (If Leavitt is healthy this team is scary. The defense should be elite under Baker and Kiffin will figure out the offense)
MSST: 3-9 (Just not a good team, probably looking for a new coach next year)
Mizzou: 7-5 (Austin Simmons has yet to live up to the hype and the schedule finally catches up to them)
OU: 8-4 (Tough schedule and no R Mason Thomas, the defense with regress some, the offense has to figure out how to run the ball)
Ole Miss: 8-4 (Tough schedule, huge roster turnover and full season for a Goulding. Hard to peg this, but last year seems like the exception)
SCjr: 6-6 (Beamer consistently under performs. The pass rush is elite, but do they have anything else? Sellers play makes or breaks them)
Tenn: 6-6 (Huge defensive turnover, WR room is not elite, a true frosh or RS Frosh starting. Huepel finally starts to slide)
TX: 10-2 (Arch Manning & Cam Coleman. This roster is stacked on both sides, can Sark win when it matters?)
A&M: 10-2 (Does the OLine mesh quickly? The roster is stacked and Elko is a great coach with a 3rd year starting QB)
Vandy: 5-7(frosh QB, 4 new OL, lost elite WR and TE. Could be a tough season, but upside for next year)
