Kentucky Football developed a reputation for strong offensive line play under the late, great John Schlarman during the Mark Stoops era. The Big Blue Wall crumbled a bit in recent years, but Will Stein made rebuilding it a priority when he took over in December. Those efforts have not gone unnoticed.
CBS Sports’ Blake Brockermeyer ranked the top ten offensive lines going into the 2026 season. Kentucky not only made that list but is in the top three, coming in third behind Georgia and Ohio State. I hear those teams are pretty good. Brockermeyer loves the unit’s upside, which could pave the way for Kenny Minchey and the Cats in Stein’s first season. Even though most of the line was built from the transfer portal, he started his praise with a returning player: junior Malachi Wood, whom he expects to start at right tackle.
