I think he kept UK in his Top lists to give them respect among other recruits. Linebackers could say, "Hey, Lamar Dawson is strongly considering UK, maybe I should, etc..."

Or it was just the fact that he always wanted to be a Wildcat, but greener pastures came.

I don't think Lamar was a big UK fan at any point. He was all but in Florida's pocket until the coaching change.

I think he gave UK the respect of being the home state school but that was it.
