Let the Year of Will Levis continue.

On Friday afternoon, it was announced that the Kentucky QB was named to the 2022 Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award Top 25. All 25 quarterbacks were selected by the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Selection Committee, which is “a group of prominent college football journalists, commentators, announcers, and former players”. The Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award is handed out annually to the top graduating quarterback.

Through four games for Kentucky this season, Levis has thrown for 1,185 yards and 10 touchdowns with a completion percentage of 67.5. He boasts a 14-3 overall record during his time in Lexington and has the No. 7 ranked Wildcats making plenty of noise across the country. UK will face No. 14 Ole Miss on the road this Saturday.

This is hardly the first national honor this year for Levis, either. During the preseason, the senior signal caller was listed on the Reese’s Senior Bowl Watch List, the Manning Award Watch List, the Walter Camp Player of the Year Watch List, the Davey O’Brien Award Watch List, and the Maxwell Award Watch List while appearing on both the coaches and media All-SEC Preseason Teams.
