Recruits like to hear if they play good football they have a shot of making it to the NFL.
During his recruiting pitch, Kentucky coach Mark Stoops says Bud Dupree’s recent first-round selection by the Pittsburgh Steelers is not the “first thing that comes out of your mouth.” However, he did say he comes up in conversations with recruits.
“It comes up with the success that we've had prior to us coming to Kentucky as well and the great string of defensive linemen that we had at Florida State. We are proud to continue that as we came to Kentucky with both Bud and Za'Darius (Smith) getting drafted,” said Stoops during a teleconference to talk about Dupree’s NFL future.

I can't wait to see how Dupree makes out in the NFL. I think he is going to be special.

Did Lebeau retire after last season? I think his presence as the defensive coordinator would guarantee Dupree a successful career.

Paul, Lebeau is the associate head coach in charge of the defense for the Tennessee Titans. It will like you say be a big help for Dupree and his career with the Titans.
