I think UK is definitely still in the LHP market. But they're at 41 now when including the incoming freshmen. Draft will likely pick some guys off, but don't think there's a ton more room left pre-draft.
SEC adds haven't been something UK has spent much time doing in the portal era. A lot of the really good players aren't leaving their school -- and if they do they come at a high price tag -- so you're mostly taking on projects at a program like UK. Hogan was a reclamation project that worked out for a year, Hachman, Mag Cotto were guys that left SEC programs after a year (Hachman was injured in his defense) but neither guy did a ton at UK.
And I'll try to find out more velocities on Austin tomorrow.
Do we add anyone else?

Question: Why are SEC transfer kids not coming to Kentucky? And the transfer in the article, what was his velocity?
