Of course. And we still need to burn Hoaks redshirt.
Westry has been a little disappointing after that freshman season...hopefully just a touch of the sophmoritis (sophmore slump)


He is never going to be a physical DB - Deon Sanders wasn't either and he is the greatest ever.

I do agree that he has not been as good as last year, hopefully he doesnt pull an AJ Stamps and not make a solid impact following such a productive season.

I think @Poetax made a great point in that the kid came in and started from day one but really had no mentor. His fundamentals still need a lot of work but the talent is definitley there.

I hope that his attitude is one that is open to getting better. I can tell you that this is a kid not from the suburbs, he has some swag and some attitude - a little bit of I'm a star kind of demeanor.

Great CB's usually do, but this is not the usual UK player - this kid is from the streets and there is a fine balance. I'll leave it at that.

The mentor part can be huge.
Hopefully, he can learn the nuances of that position from himself (mistakes and lots film work) and coaches.
I can't tell if he has a fragile ego...

Ego isn't fragile, opposite, just hope it is humble enough to realize what needs to be fixed and does it.

Here is a little skinny on Mizzou...against P5 schools wvu, Ga,Lsu,Fla they have averaged running 75 ppg..400 ypg..but only scoring 15 ppg vs giving up 35 ppg...I would take all these stats on Sat and like our chances. I do realize UK is probably not as good as any of those teams and we are probably much closer to mtsu so we shall see. mtsu had 316 yds rushing and 284 yds passing and scored 51 pts against mizzou. Surely we are close to being as good as mtsu.
Boy was I close:football::football::joy::joy:[banana][banana]:cool2:even a blind squirrel finds one every now and then
