Jason Hatcher

One of the early recruiting coups of the Mark Stoops Era, Hatcher signed with Kentucky as a four-star recruit after decommitting from Southern California. He played in 10 of 12 games as a freshman with three sacks. As a sophomore, Hatcher worked his way into the starting lineup at an defensive end/outside linebacker spot in the 3-4 formation. He ranked fourth on the team with 5.5 tackles for loss. In 2015, Hatcher will be counted on to replace Bud Dupree for the Wildcats.
