Not much out of Lexington today, which isn’t unusual considering Kentucky has an open date tomorrow. Here’s what in the news:
UK held a scrimmage involving their freshmen and redshirt freshmen yesterday. Defensive end Collins Ukwu was one of the stars.
Rich Brooks is in the running for a national Coach of the Year award. Defensive line coach Rick Petri is up for a national defensive line coach award… naturally.
Former Auburn offensive coordinator (and Kentucky assistant under Hal Mumme) Tony Franklin says his mid-season firing at Auburn was nowhere near as bad as his departure from Lexington (of which he wrote a tell-all book). “This was just football and personalities, just normal, everyday coaching stuff. This (Auburn) doesn’t have the ugly, bad feeling in my mouth like what happened at Kentucky.”
This is a pretty interesting column from Mark Story of The Lexington Herald-Leader.
