Kentucky got a good one in Tomiwa Durojaiye.

The newest member of Kentucky’s class of 2022 football recruiting class chose the Wildcats on Sunday afternoon over the likes of West Virginia, Vanderbilt, South Carolina, and Georgia Tech. Durojaiye is Kentucky’s first defensive line commitment for this class and one with enormous upside. He clocks in at around 6-foot-4, 255 pounds, and moves like an otherworldly athlete.

Don’t believe me? Check out the commitment video that Durojaiye posted below. Before explaining which school he chose and why, Durojaiye gave us a behind-the-scenes glimpse of some of his workouts. They don’t look all that fun, either.     

“First and foremost I would like to thank god for allowing me to be in this position today and blessing me with the talents and abilities to play the sport that I love,” Tomiwa Durojaiye says in the video. “Next I would like to thank my mom, dad, and stepmom for the countless sacrifices that you guys have made for me and always supported my dreams no matter what. I truly appreciate you guys for everything.
