The Kentucky Wildcats are creating some serious fireworks on the recruiting trails this Independence Day, landing two commitments for their 2019 class.
First, it was Florida WR DeMarcus Harris, then, later on Wednesday night, it was 3-star 2019 TE Nikolas Ognenovic.
As you can see below, Ognenovic — who is also a Florida native — announced his decision via Twitter:

According to the 247Sports composite, Ognenovic is the No. 31 tight end in the class of 2019 and the No. 111 overall recruit from the state of Florida.
The Wildcats now have 14 players in their 2019 class. Prior to Ognenovic’s commitment, the class ranked No. 11 in the SEC and No. 41 nationally, per 247Sports.
