HE SHOOTS HE SCORES!! During ESPN College GameDay at Memorial Coliseum this morning, University of Kentucky student McKinley Webb drilled the halfcourt shot to take home $19,000. After the make, ESPN left Webb’s mic on and caught some pretty colorful (yet hilarious) language from the excited Kentucky fan. Here was the epic moment: https://twitter.com/ky_clips/status/1096817447968096256?s=21 After the dust settled, Webb let the world know he just wanted to put on a show for his hometown of Pikeville, KY. https://twitter.com/mwebb1998/status/1096822570790342659?s=21 He also wanted to apologize for the language, but believes his word choice might have been justified. It is $19,000, after all... https://twitter.com/mwebb1998/status/1096823442937204736 If this isn't a good omen for tonight's game, I don't know what is. #BeatTennessee [mobile_ad]
