In addition to those two, Kentucky also landed a commitment from a pair of three-star’s, the first of which was from linebacker Devin Smith out of Brunswick High School in Georgia. The Wildcats fourth commitment also came from the state of Georgia in edge rusher Lorenzo Cowan, who attends Jenkins High School.
