    Freshman results: Benny Snell didn't record a carry in Kentucky's first two games of 2016 yet ended the year as the program's record-holder for rushing yards as a freshman. He racked up 1,091 yards and a team-high 13 touchdowns.

    Sophomore outlook: Not only did the Wildcats lose leading rusher Boom Williams, Jojo Kemp (349 yards, six touchdowns) was a senior. Snell will be asked to shoulder a heavy load, though it helps the offensive line returns four starters and two rotational pieces.

    Top-end potential: Snell excelled in a time-share, so the excitement surrounding his first season as the featured back is justified. Turnover on the offensive line after 2016 is a concern, but Snell's burst, powerful running style and refusal to get stopped by first contact could garner NFL attention if he stays healthy.

Turnover on oline? We have to replace our center.... we are good and probably way better at every other spot on the line. Benny just needs to stay healthy.
 
That's what I said. I corrected him on Twitter. Saying, we only lost one OLineman and added two under the radar ones in the 2017 class.

Funnier still, his article specifies we return 4 starters and 2 rotational players... WTF?
