Tubman still open to pitch from Kentucky

Louisville (Ky.) Seneca defensive end Lloyd Tubman flipped his commitment from WKU to Vanderbilt earlier this year and he has seemed to be pretty solid in his pledge to the Commodores since then.

As recently as late June the 6-foot-3, 228-pound defensive end maintained he was solid with Vanderbilt and happy with his commitment.

And Tubman said this week that still hasn't changed.

"I still feel the same," Tubman said. "I'm just seeing what's out there."

But there's really only one school that he seems to be checking out. That would be Kentucky. The Wildcats haven't stopped recruiting Tubman since he flipped to Vanderbilt and the coaching staff has made it clear to him that they would love for him to be a part of their recruiting class.

"On the 19th (of July) I'm going to visit UK," he told Cats Illustrated, noting that he has stayed in contact with head coach Mark Stoops.

"I'm really just going to be seeing what they're all about. He's a great coach," he said of Stoops.

The three-star prospect, ranked the No. 4 rising senior in the Commonwealth, said Kentucky is the only other school he is giving a serious look to at this time.
