Ta'ron Keith - Commits to Western Kentucky Keith announced his commitment to Western Kentucky on Monday.
Impact Keith will test himself by joining a football program with great depth at running back. Four of Western Kentucky's 2023 backs logged more than 100 yards. But even so, Keith is likely the Hilltoppers' best option available for 2024. He logged 847 scrimmage yards (390 rushing and 457 receiving) and seven touchdowns during his 2023 season. If the Hilltoppers do not maintain one or two of their senior backs, they will make Keith's chances of excelling even better.

Elijah Young - Productive in passing game Young totaled eight carries for 14 yards and gathered in 3 of 4 targets for 48 yards and one touchdown during Monday's 38-35 overtime win over Old Dominion.
Impact Young struggled to get going on the ground in the Famous Toastery Bowl, but hauled in three receptions for 48 yards and a score from quarterback Caden Veltkamp. The 5-foot-9 senior ended the season with 104 carries for 474 yards and three touchdowns, along with 20 receptions for 247 yards and three additional scores. Young will look to contribute in his second season with the program next year.

Dalvin Smith - Records three touchdowns Smith recorded nine receptions (on 12 targets) for 77 yards and three touchdowns during Monday's 38-35 overtime victory against Old Dominion.
Impact Smith doubled his 2023 touchdown tally from three to six. Though only one game is a small sample size, it currently seems like he and Caden Veltkamp can connect very well. With the latter presently expected to be Western Kentucky's primary quarterback during 2024, perhaps this connection can continue to excel later this year. Regardless, Smith is a great target for any WKU quarterback, as his 500-plus receiving yards and six corresponding touchdowns suggest.

Turner Helton - Benched during bowl game Helton was 3-for-4 passing for 15 yards and one interception during Monday's 38-35 overtime win against Old Dominion.
Impact After a carry for -17 yards, a fumble and an interception, Helton was benched for Caden Veltkamp. The good news for Helton is that he has plenty of offseason time to improve and let people forget about his bowl performance. But with Veltkamp electing to stay at Western Kentucky, Helton also staying may not assure him a starting position when the team plays football again in 2024.
