Glasgow High School standout announces commitment to UK

Glasgow High School standout Rico Crowder Jr. will be staying home to play college football.

The rising senior Crowder, a 6-foot-4 wide receiver and defensive back, announced that he plans to continue his career at the University of Kentucky.

Crowder announced the news of his commitment in a tweet Wednesday morning.

Last year as a junior playing at Glasgow High School, Crowder recorded 10 total touchdowns for the Scotties (three rushing and seven receiving). He’s expected to be a focal point of the Glasgow offense this upcoming season.

Crowder is a three-sport star at Glasgow, also playing basketball and running track for the Scotties.

Crowder certainly can bring an element of speed to this team, reportedly posting a sub 4.4 40-yard dash time.

It’s also always cool to see players from the state of Kentucky be able to stay home and play at the University of Kentucky.
