We have shifted into a recruiting dead period and the winter transfer portal window is scheduled to close in just a few days. Teams are filling roster spots quickly and players are getting locked in with their new schools before the spring semester begins. Another former Kentucky player has found a new college football home.

Tanner Lemaster is heading to the MAC. The tight end transfer has committed to Eastern Michigan.

The tight end was a three-star prospect out of Washington (Ohio) High located between Cincinnati and Columbus. Tanner Lemaster took a redshirt in 2023 and earned SEC academic honor roll honors. The redshirt freshman only played three offensive snaps in 2024. Lemaster will be a redshirt sophomore with three years of eligibility remaining at Eastern Michigan in 2025.
