The brother of Jeremy Maclin is now on Kentucky’s radar.
Depending on how the wide receiver room shakes out, the Kentucky Wildcats could be in need of a new pass-catcher for next season.
There’s also the news that wide receivers coach Scott Woodward is out. Woodward was at Kentucky for three years, so now that he’s leaving, you have to wonder if some of the current receivers he recruited to Lexington will follow suit.
Back on November 20th, Texas A&M transfer receiver Raymond Cottrell confirmed he was receiving interest from Kentucky.
Now, North Texas wideout Ja’Mori ‘Jay’ Maclin has announced a scholarship offer from Kentucky. He holds additional offers from Ole Miss, Penn State, Cincinnati, and Michigan State, among others.
