Hear Jimmy Dykes Sing "Rockin' Little Heartbeat"

by: Nick Roush01/30/19@RoushKSR

Kentucky’s win over Vanderbilt was interrupted by the dulcet tones of Jimmy Dykes.

While the Cats were completely dismantling the Commodores, ESPN producers found a country music track Dykes cut about a decade ago.  Without much to dissect from the game, they put the former UK assistant coach on the spot in Nashville.

Caught off guard, Dykes wasn’t exactly crisp during his on-air performance.  Luckily, the internet has found an old version of Dykes’ rendition of “Rockin’ Little Heartbeat” with Arkansas musician Donovan Tucker.  If you liked Jimmy’s Jet, you’ll love Jimmy’s country music jam.
