I guess this thread should be re-titled "Kentucky Almost Lost, Dammit". :confused:

You hit it on the last line. I recall back when Athlon came out with ratings and I eagerly read the definitions of the various "Star Ratings". A 5 Star guy was one that was expected to be able to significantly contribute to the collegiate team as a Freshman. I assume that nothing has changed...

I gather there are total no signing limits now?

You don't read the thread much, huh?
