The University of Kentucky went into familiar territory to pick up its second known commitment of the 2010 recruiting class.
When the dust settled, the University of Kentucky finished about where it normally does in the recruiting rankings — near the bottom of the Southeastern Conference. But you wouldn't have known that from Rich Brooks' demeanor at his news conference Wednesday to announce his 2009 signees.
Kentucky is expected to sign its best football recruiting class of the Rich Brooks era on Wednesday, including a pair of blue-chip quarterback prospects who should keep the Cats well-stocked under center for the next few years.
