LSU Tigers DB Kelvin Joseph is currently in the NCAA’s transfer portal, and he has included Kentucky on his list of potential options.
As a freshman at LSU, Joseph appeared in 11 games at LSU where he recorded 12 tackles to go along with a pass deflection. He was suspended for their Fiesta Bowl win for what was described as a violation of team rules.
The suspension could be the reasoning for his departure, but LSU’s depth at the position is likely another factor. The Tigers have four veterans returning to the secondary with five more freshman defensive backs coming in this season.

boom, this will make you and all us Kentucky fans happy as Joseph has committed to the Cats.
Give Kentucky coach Mark Stoops credit for not even attempting to downplay the significance of having LSU sophomore defensive back Kelvin Joseph transfer to UK this week.
Joseph was a top 40 player in the 2018 recruiting class and will be the fourth highest ranked player ever to play for UK when he’s eligible in 2020 after sitting out as a redshirt this season.
“It’s a big get for us. It’s an area of importance for us. We need to sign some corners and some defensive backs. I’m very grateful that he’s on our campus and going to school. He’s going to be able to play next year,” Stoops said Thursday.
“It’s a big get for us. He’s a proven player. He was exceptional coming out of high school. Really played well, got a lot of game experience as a true freshman. We’re excited about having him. Great addition.”
