Demarcus Gardner flips from UCF to Kentucky

How about another Yahtzee on this beautiful weekend!?

After landing Nicholas Smith on Friday and Preston Bowman earlier on Saturday, Kentucky has now scored a pledge from Demarcus Gardner.

Gardner flipped his commitment to Kentucky after originally being pledged to UCF.

The 6-foot, 170-pound Gardner plays for Cedartown High School in Georgia and officially visited Kentucky on June 14th. He currently plays cornerback and wide receiver but is expected to play on the defensive side of the ball in college.

Gardner’s other scholarship offers include USF, Minnesota, SMU, Georgia State, East Carolina, and Troy, among others. He’s ranked 745th overall and 84th in the state of Georgia via 247 Sports Composite.

Chris Collins and Anwar Stewart are listed as Gardner’s primary recruiters for Kentucky.

Kentucky is now up to 12 commitments in the 2025 class, which is now ranked 30th overall at 247 Sports.
