Little still solid with Wildcats

Three-star Anderson (S.C.) T.L. Hanna running back Rafael Little has been a Kentucky commitment since October, but rumors have swirled since that time that he may be leaving the door open for other schools.

Is that true?

“Everything is exactly the same,” Little said. “I don’t know where those (rumors) are coming from. I’m still firm with Kentucky. In fact, I’m going up there Friday for my official visit. I’m really looking forward to that. Joker (Phillips) was here the other day to talk to me some more. We had a real good meeting.”

Will there be any other visits?

“I don’t have any scheduled right now,” he said. “I don’t think so.”

He said he hasn't had any other recent in-home visits from coaches of other staffs. In addition to the Wildcats, Little is sporting offers from Clemson, South Carolina, Georgia and Tennessee.

Little (5-11, 1909, 4.45) is rated the No. 9 all-purpose back in the nation by Rivals.com. He’s coming off a senior season which saw him rush for 1,650 yards and 39 touchdowns.
