Kentucky is dropping a beginning large receiver to the switch portal for the second straight day as Barion Brown will observe Dane Key and go away this system.
Brown, who ranked second behind Key on the workforce in receptions (29) and receiving yards (361) this season, introduced his determination to switch on Instagram. He can have one yr of eligibility left after recording 122 receptions for 1,528 receiving yards and 11 touchdowns at Kentucky.
Brown (6-foot-1, 182 kilos) had his finest season as a freshman in 2022, when he had 50 receptions for 628 yards.
Key on Wednesday introduced his intent to enter the portal and switch for his ultimate yr in school. He led Kentucky with profession highs in receptions (47) and receiving yards (715 yards).
Kentucky, which went 4-8 this season, should now change its high two receivers from a passing offense that ranks one hundred and tenth nationally. Two Wildcats gamers have formally entered the switch portal this week: defensive lineman Keeshawn Silver, a former ESPN five-star recruit who signed with North Carolina, and offensive lineman Courtland Ford.
