Is Dane Key one of those players we will love regardless of where he plays next season? Or is there a landing spot that would make you close that door?

The kid seems like the type of kid you want your daughter to date. Could he ever be anything but true blue?

He is one UGA is hard after, he visited last week and went on visit to Nebraska Friday and to OM before us. If he is looking for biggest payday it won't be us. But his longtime GF plays softball at UGA, I guess we have a shot, but not sure where we stand. Always seemed like a good kid.

Maybe he comes back after reviewing tape on the new qb and the other upgrades.

247 has us as the 10th best portal class and On3 has us as the 8th best portal class.

And hopefully our class continues to get stronger and stronger. Still a long way to go.
 
Personal issue? ‘ cause he’s a good player and I think everyone would love to see him back
He's undisciplined and unmotivated/lazy. More concerned about celebrating every catch and getting personal foul calls than dedicating himself to getting better. With some slight exceptions, he only catches balls that hit him right in the chest as long as there isn't a defender near him.

While not the biggest fan of DK, I don't agree with your assessment of his performance. Had some DA personal foul calls (a few) and, especially in early '23, had the drops. But, the first 7 or 8 games this year, he was our best offensive player. Kind of disappeared the final few games but that may have been as much about Boley not looking exclusively at him, getting double teamed, etc. He's made some tough catches, for sure. Now, if you're thinking Barion Brown, you'd be 100% correct - always on the verge of getting the UC penalty, celebrates 2-yard catches, drops balls right in his bread basket, etc.
 
The idea that Key is lazy is just absurd ridiculousness. He changed his body. Although not the fastest WR, he had a knack for finding ways to get open. He won a lot of 50/50 balls and fought for all of them. He improved every year in some facet. Just absurd to call him lazy. Whack.

You didn’t watch Uk football in 2024

1. Dane has put on weight which he needed
2. Dane had hardly had drops in 2024…just a bad start to 2023 is all we’ve seen at Ky
3. Dane makes tons of catches outside his numbers…don’t know why you’d say he only catches the easy ones

Dane had one personal foul nonsense in 2024…I think it was uga game

He’s been a good wr at Ky…it’s going to sting losing him

The last 5 games he basically disappeared and didn't seem to be working to get open or running good routes. He averaged 2 catches per game over that stretch. That's almost half our season.

In the Florida game, he had 13 targets with only 4 catches. He had several drops in the first half at Ole Miss.
