1. Kiyaunta Goodwin, OT

It is rare for Kentucky to pull a five-star prospect, but they did just that in this recruiting cycle.

Kiyaunta Goodwin is one of the top offensive linemen in the country and was a big signing day get. Despite being committed to the Wildcats, Michigan State made a big push to try and land the talented lineman. Stoops and the Wildcats won the recruiting battle and got one of the country’s most talented prospects.

At 6-foot-8, 340 pounds, Goodwin is one of the most imposing offensive linemen that you are going to find. For being such a large prospect, Goodwin is athletic and has all of the traits and attributes to be a future franchise left tackle for an NFL team in the future.

Kentucky does well at developing offensive linemen and Goodwin is going to be their most talented prospect yet.
