Kentucky can’t pass, but you still don’t want to lose a junior on an already thin/weak defense. Hate it for him, hope he comes back strong for 2020!

Not surprising, they were saying on the radio at the end of the Syracuse game that he couldn't put weight on his foot. Hate this for the kid, he played hard all year and doesn't get to play in our Bowl game. I hope he has a fast recovery.

He probably hates missing the uk game worse than the Bowl.
And he’s one that chose to come here over his dad’s alma mater where his dad was a legend. That’s number 1.

Number 2, after the disaster of the last few years on defense, he CHOSE TO STAY with this program once again and fight through the rebuild.

But hey, he has another year to get it right and lead the defense next year as a senior!

man, hate it for the kid. Like you said, he coulda bolted and decided to honor his commitment. His dad was a hero in blue.....so Im sure he woulda liked to be able to get some bragging rights round the supper table.

Hope he comes back. Kid needs a year more under a good defensive minded coach to show what he can do.
