UK currently has 2 top athletes in Ohio with the commitments of Thaddeus Snodgrass & Darius West. The question is, can Kentucky actually compete for the top atheletes year in and year out in the state of Ohio. Heres a break down of Recruiting in the Buckeye State and future recruiting classes.

Yes, because Alabama recruits Ohio on the regular.

We have two guys form Ohio on our roster. We've signed maybe five in the now 7 years Nick Saban has been at Alabama.

Kentucky will play better regardless of the record last year. After we play Florida, South Carolina, & Alabama we get a bye week before we play Miss. State on a thursday night. The visiting team is also 6-1 in the series and even though we lost, we went into half time with a 17-10 lead and never trailed until late in the 3rd quarter.

After going through the gauntlet in late september and october our team will be much better then Miss. State will prepare for and come out with a win.

This is always a funny comment knowing they were sold on the premise of the program needing them immediately and numerous recruits have commented that they've been told they're looking at season lean in the W column.

It's not like we lit the world on fire last season either.

OSU/Michigan will battle like they always have for the top Ohio kids. ND is 3rd. Top programs will get kids out of there once in a while (Bama, Texas have taken Depriest, Kief and Hicks), but OSU has taken top kids from other top states too (Georgia Texax etc.)

Not sure how many kids OSU has taken out of the state of Bama

Well, looks like UK might be changing things up since they have two of your top kids right now.

Snodgrass had an offer, but West didn't. I am not worried about them one bit haha. Under Meyer, there will be less Ohio kids brought into OSU classes, rightly or not. I think OSU will take about a 50/50 split ofr 60/40 national to state

I've said this for a while. Kentucky getting better guys out of Ohio is killing the already limited depth of the B1G. MSU/Iowa/Ill/Wisky etc are all going to get hurt if Kentucky keeps this up

And no, we will not leave Georgia

I think this UK fan is just trolling, he can't be serious. Good one, you got me to look at another one of your threads, wasting my time, stealing my interwebz.
