Hey guys, I caught up earlier with Northmont (OH) three-star OL Jayden Clark. He last visited UC in September for the Miami (OH) game, but I'm hearing his name a bit more in source circles with the staff.
Clark is at 7 offers now, but I do think UC is currently in the best spot here. Clark said the Bearcats made his visit feel "exclusive" to him and his family and teammates who visited for the game. He told me he loved the atmosphere at Nippert Stadium, but also the academics and the support for student-athletes. Clark said he knows the Big 12 move has been tough so far, but that "they’re gonna improve and get guys that will help in the long run."
Assistant coach Nic Cardwell has been the main recruiter here so far. And Clark said he likes how genuine Cardwell seems, that he's a guy who will truly look out for and help his players. Clark told me a couple of times about the family vibe.
The only other visit Clark took this season was the season-opener to Penn State. And he had a lot of positives about that experience. But this week, Clark will visit Kentucky and if the Wildcats offer, that's an immediate contender. Long way to go, though. No even talk of any list of favorites or anyone standing out. But again, proximity, plus getting that early visit will bode well here for UC.
Full story coming.
