Agreed. I'm tired of hearing "he's a sleeper". Who cares, we are an SEC school with top notch practice facilities. Why aren't we pursuing highly regarded players such as the ones Alabama, Florida, LSU, Tennessee, etc. are? Do we just not feel that we shouldn't waste our time just because an elite team has also offered? I don't honestly know, but I would like UK to pursue better recruits. I for one am not satisfied with mediocrity.

I was thinking the same thing as I watched the UK game. I think they don't persue them because they don't see big time players coming to Kentucky because they aren't as established as Bama, Florida, etc. and give up before they even try. UK's football program doesn't have the name to go along with it like the basketball program does so I feel they let other schools go after the big fish and they get those "sleeper" "flying under the radar" players that do not receive other big offers and are more likely to come to UK. We could at least offer to some better players or press hard to pick up those who aren't quiiiite good enough to play for a top 25 team but are still great athletes.
