Two Former Kentucky Wildcats Transfer to Power Five Programs
The recruiting dead period begins at midnight. That means players in the transfer portal cannot visit campuses until Jan. 1. It’s a mad dash to secure a spot and a few former Kentucky Wildcats found a new home in the Power Five ranks.
Former four-star talent Tyreese Fearbry is heading to Camp Randall to Jump Around with the Wisconsin Badgers. The Pittsburgh native has two years of eligibility remaining.
The decorated recruit had plenty of promise, but that never turned into production. In three years and over 350 defensive snaps, he recorded 21 tackles, one tackle for loss, two pass breakups, and 21 pressures. His best performance came against Clemson in the Gator Bowl to end the 2023 season when the edge rusher logged a career-high five pressures.
Feary was one of three departures from Brad White’s position room. Kentucky ended the live period by hosting a couple of EDGE players, Chris Murray and Kameron Olds.

Kentucky also lost three tight ends this offseason. Khamari Anderson revealed he will be joining a CFP team next fall. He’s putting his forks up to play for Kenny Dillingham at Arizona State. The former Under Armour All-American also visited Auburn during the process. I can’t blame the Detroit native for moving to the desert instead.
He had six receptions for 40 yards during his two seasons in Lexington. Kentucky received a commitment from Illinois tight end Henry Boyer to add size and depth to Vince Marrow’s tight end position room. For those keeping tally at home, nine of the 21 departing Kentucky football transfers have landed in the Power Conference ranks, and that number will likely grow.
