Top Kentucky target locks in commitment date

Could Kentucky soon add to its 2025 recruiting class?

Paducah (Ky.) Tilghman safety Martels Carter Jr. (6-foot-0.5, 190) intends to announce his college commitment May 25, he tells CatsPause.com. The Wildcats are thought to be high on his personal list alongside programs like Clemson, Auburn, and other schools.

He mentioned his earlier visits to Lexington and the aspects of the SEC program that he found appealing.

“I like having everything in one location. To go to different places, you don’t have to rip and run around. You can walk and visit other facilities, as well as better organize your time and build your craft. It’s all in one location. Many people I know have positive things to say about them. I am aware that the program needs to function well. Just before transferring from Chattanooga (Tenn.) Brainerd, Carter told CatsPause.com that “[Barion says] it is a good place to do your thing and shine.”

In his first season playing high school football in the Bluegrass State, Carter caught 43 passes for 1,066 yards and 10 touchdowns in addition to scoring 3 touchdowns and gaining 214 yards through the air. The native of Tennessee added 44 tackles and 3 interceptions in defense. He scored a half dozen times on special teams (5 punt returns for a touchdown, 1 kickoff return for a touchdown).

This spring, Mark Stoops, the head coach, and tight ends coach Vince Marrow paid Carter a visit at his school. He trained with NPA with wide receiver Barion Brown and quarterback Cutter Boley, who are now close friends.

According to the 247Sports Composite, Carter is the No. 16 safety in the country and the No. 194 prospect overall, with a rating of.9274 on a 1.000 scale.
