After taking his official visit to Kentucky this past weekend, it seemed that Kenneth made up his mind shortly after the visit. Horsey is a three-star prospect in the 2018 recruiting class, weighs in at 330 pounds, and stands at 6-foot-3.
His stock had been rising for the past few months. Kenneth received some big-time offers from two SEC teams: Missouri and Mississippi State.
This isn’t the first time we’ve seen Mark Stoops and this Kentucky program beat out Mississippi State in recruiting. Over the past few years, Kentucky has managed to do just as good, if not better in recruiting than MSU.
The two other teams that actually had a better shot of landing Horsey over MSU were UCF and USF.
Horsey is rated a .8316 by the 247Sports Composite and is considered the nation's No. 58 offensive guard.
This is exactly what Kentucky needed. A couple of the guys on the o-line are graduating, and they had to make sure they stayed deep on the offensive line.
Congratulations to Kenneth on making a big time decision!
