Mark Stoops and his staff just rapped up the best recruiting class in school history and ESPN has this 2014 class among this years signing day winners.

Kentucky: Sure, Kentucky plucked only one key target on Wednesday in three-star former Vanderbilt and Penn State defensive end commit Lloyd Tubman (Louisville, Ky./Seneca), but it was still a huge day at the finish line for the Wildcats. The 2014 class marks the first time in the nine years that ESPN has ranked recruiting classes that the Wildcats have finished with a top 25 class, and that includes a big win over Alabama for in-state four-star defensive tackle Matt Elam (Elizabethtown, Ky./John Hardin). Signing six defensive backs fills a huge need as well.

Kentucky is finally starting to get the national exposure that they deserve. Stoops said yesterday at his press conference they are already working on the 2015 class. This staff never quits, I wouldn’t be surprised if next years class isn’t as good or better than this years group.
