Jackson (Miss.) Hinds C.C. defensive tackle David Washington says he's '100 percent' a Wildcat, plans to re-up with UK and could possibly join the team as a January enrollee.

To reiterate, coach Wilson to me:
"He's going to Kentucky. That's the only school he's looking at."
I asked him if it was safe to add Washington to UK's list of commits and he said, "Yes."

Any indication of how he is doing there or how big he is now?

Awesome. Would love him to be a December grad but as long as he gets on campus it will be huge. Dline in 2013 should be loaded.

In the article.
50 tackles (24 for loss) and 6.0 sacks as a freshman last season.
Down from 330 pounds to 306.

Thought it was interesting he said USC had inquired about him. I'm assuming he meant Southern Cal.

This is great news, checked the commitment list and he's been added. I do have a question though, is there any chance 247 is going to change Jacob Hyde from an OG (which he will clearly not play) to DT?

Hell it'd be nice to see that, as well as some of our commits to get evaluated. Washington should be at least a 3 star.

Fantastic news! I wonder what position he'll play in our D at UK. My guess is he will be a jumbo DE in the 3-4 like Rumph, but would slide down to a DT in the rare events that we line up with 4 DL's.

I don't know that 247 has been doing much of any juco evaluating.

Wow has this staff come along with our DL recruiting. You guys remember the days of Antwain Glenn and Charles Mustafaa? Not very long ago, but it seems like a distant memory.

Chris, thank you for following through with the Williams interview---much appreciated! Here's hoping that he becomes fully qualified to enroll in January.
Would he most likely play the same position as Rumph in the Minter D?

I watched him play a few times last yr, absolut BEAST he was on a different level from the rest, couldn't be stopped. Can't wait to see him in a UK uniform
