How Kentucky is turning Lexington into quarterback country
Kentucky football coach Will Stein is using his track record with Heisman finalists to lure top 2028 quarterback prospects.
Kentucky football has become a hub for quarterbacks, with coach Will Stein turning the program into a quarterback factory. Stein, who previously coached at Oregon, landed a five-year deal with the Wildcats and brought his experience to Kentucky, promising a quarterback pipeline. One of his first signings was redshirt freshman Cutter Boley, who helped the program improve from a 5-7 record.
Meanwhile, rising junior Josiah Boyd, a 6-foot-3, 165-pound quarterback from California, is also drawn to Kentucky. Boyd is known for his accuracy and rushing ability, and has been compared to Jayden Daniels. He has also been wooed by other schools like LSU, UCLA, and USC, making Kentucky's competition for his services fierce. However, Stein's unique approach and personal connection to Boyd give Kentucky an edge in the battle for talent.
Stein's success with quarterbacks has put Kentucky at the forefront of quarterback country, and he is now betting that other West Coast quarterbacks will follow in Boyd's footsteps to Lexington.
