JK Ratliff was visited by UK last week, Steve Ortmayer stopped by. He told JK that UK was VERY interested in him and they talked about UK's Summer camps that JK plans to attend. JK has already been to the Elite 11 QB camp at Georgia Tech Univ. on Apreil 20 (invitees only) and also attended the Nike Skill camp at the Univ. of Georgia on April 21. They told him that he had a very strong arm and that he did some very impressive things. His footwork has improved and I would bet that he has chopped off at least a couple of seconds off of his 40 time. He is alot more mobile than last year and keeps improving. Rob Gidel that is with kentuckysportsreport.com and travels all over the place talking with kids and interviewing them, has said that JK has and I QUOTE, "the strongest arm in the State of Ky!" He told me that in a phone interview. He is getting interest from UK, Marshall, EKU, Army and several other schools, as well as NAIA schools. He has attended 2 (two) UK Junior day events and has met with the staff and Joker Phillips speaks highly of him. JK also plans on attending several other camps such as Louisville's QB camp. Go to the catspause.com and go to the house of blues to see an article on JK Ratliff by Jeff Drummond of TCP and he is listed both on Rivals.com and Scouts.com. Also, UK is definetly interested in Nathanial Dials and so is Auburn, Louisville, Marshall and other schools. Nathanial has also attended 2 UK Junior days along with JK Ratliff and has attended either the UK blue/white scrimmage or Marshall's spring scrimmage (both on the same day, so not sure which one he went to).
