Recruiting MEGA POST: The Ohio Invasion of the #BBN

Left to right: Dorian Hendrix, Mikel Horton, Mike Edwards, George Brown Jr., Tyrell Gilbert and Derek Kief.

In the mid-1960's, a phenomenon referred to as the British Invasion occurred when bands from the United Kingdom such as The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Who and The Moody Blues crossed the Atlantic Ocean and introduced the best new talent to music fans in the United States.

On February 9th, 2013, the University of Kentucky held their Junior Day for football recruits.  Replace the above band names with Winton Woods, Lakota East, Wayne, Colerain, Princeton and La Salle and the Atlantic Ocean with the Ohio River and you have what I have coined, the Ohio Invasion.  This phenomenon, much like the British Invasion, introduces the best new recruiting talent to football fans in Big Blue Nation.

Here are a few of the Ohio recruits that took Kentucky by storm on Saturday.
