Kentucky Target Elijah Satchell Schedules Commitment

July 4, 2025 by Kentucky Sports Radio

We learned on Thursday morning that July 6 could be a big date for the Kentucky football program when QB Matt Ponatoski shares his college decision. He’s not the only UK target announcing on Sunday.

Elijah Satchell shared his decision date with 247’s Brian Dohn. The defensive linemen will choose between Kentucky, Northwestern, Stanford, and N.C. State.

A Camden, New Jersey native, Satchell is a 6-foot-1.5, 220-pound pass-rusher. The three-star talent is ranked by 247 as a defensive lineman. On3 believes his future is at EDGE. That versatility was a part of Kentucky’s recruiting pitch when he visited campus last month for an official visit.

“I am looking at the coaches, the players I am going to be around, the environment and the school,” Satchell told 247. “Everybody wants to use me as an edge, hybrid guy.

“The most creative one was probably Kentucky. They said I could play all four positions. It wasn’t just as an edge rusher. They said I could play linebacker, too. The other schools told me I could do that as well.”

N.C. State appears to be Kentucky’s top competition. The two schools have butted heads over a couple of recruits in recent years, like Tyreek Jemison and Spike Sowells.

Kentucky has addressed a lot of roster needs over the summer, but EDGE is the exception. The Cats took big swings and missed with Asharri Charles and Jackson Ford. Adding Satchell to the equation would be a nice way to cap off the summer before the table resets during the fall.
