Kentucky football made a significant move in the transfer portal by securing Kendrick Law, a former four-star recruit from Alabama, as their second wide receiver acquisition. Standing 5’11” and weighing 209 pounds, Law is known for his versatility and impressive athleticism, including a 10.48 100-meter time.
Although highly regarded in high school, Law’s college production has been limited. Over three seasons at Alabama, he accumulated 33 receptions for 343 yards and one touchdown, with his best season coming in 2024 (10 catches, 105 yards, and one touchdown).
Kentucky fans are cautiously optimistic about Law’s potential, especially following the departure of key contributors Barion Brown and Dane Key. Law’s strength in run blocking might be a valuable asset as the Wildcats look to rebuild their receiving corps. His athleticism and ability to play multiple positions, including running back and defensive back, give him significant upside.
However, questions remain about Kentucky’s coaching staff, led by Mark Stoops and offensive coordinator Bush Hamdan, and whether they can unlock Law’s full potential. With the team finishing 4-8 in 2024, there are concerns about whether Kentucky can turn things around, especially with an emphasis on raw talent rather than proven players.
Law’s addition marks a step forward in strengthening the wide receiver group. If he can convert his athleticism into consistent performance, he could become a crucial part of Kentucky’s offense.
Fans will be watching closely to see if Law can live up to his high school promise or become another transfer disappointment under Stoops.
