LEXINGTON, Ky- Just about every “Power 5” school in the country wanted Justin Rogers, and Kentucky now has him. At least they have a commitment from him, that is.

The 6-foot-4 and 300 pound five-star offensive guard is the No.10 ranked player in the class of 2020 according to Rivals.com. He is the highest ranked player to ever commit to the Cats in the Rivals ranking era.

He is ranked the No. 1 guard in the nation for the 2020 class on the 247Sports Composite.

Kentucky began recruiting Rogers before anyone else, as the Wildcats offered Rogers when he was in 8th grade.

Rogers chose the Wildcats over SEC teams Tennessee, Georgia and LSU, among others.
