Today, that's Mike Edwards. Saturday Down South just released their top 10 "most ferocious hitters in the SEC" and Edwards was second on the list - only behind Darrin Kirkland Jr. of Tennessee. Here's what they had to say about Edwards:

"The 6-0, 200-pound backbone of the Kentucky defense is both studious and relentless. The junior-to-be led all SEC defensive backs in tackles last year with 100, and more than a few of them were of the bone-crunching variety. He was a rock in the Wildcats’ resurgent 2016 season, starting all 13 games, and he never failed to make his presence felt."

While we're at it, let's relive his interception at UofL: https://youtu.be/zPEWb0M2ylI?t=56s That was a good day.
