[Matt Dillon]

2025 three-star cornerback Demarcus Gardner is committing to Kentucky and plans to enroll in early January, he tells KSR+. He is flipping his commitment from UCF after his recent official visit to UK.

“I love the coaches. The facility caught my eye and I feel like it’s a better fit for me,” Gardner said. “What stood out most to me [on my visit] is that the coaches actually care about the players.”

Gardner, a 6-foot, 165-pound cornerback from Cedartown (GA) believes he fits great in the Kentucky scheme. He said his greatest strengths are his “ball skills and ability to attack the ball.”
