The hits just keep coming

If they ask stoops about levis, he should say he hasn’t seen him
The 5 star kid from Georgia is another option that has been mentioned
It’s his leg or something close to that, I think they are just being cautious but the drop off from Levis to the backups is a huge one. So unless he really hurt Kentucky needs him
Caller on the KSR pre-show named Andy (not the regular caller Andy) said that it's a toe injury (I'm guessing turf toe, which someone else in this thread also mentioned, I believe, or maybe it was on Twitter). Said Levis WILL NOT play. Said his source was pretty direct and not a friend's barber's cousin type of deal. Take it FWIW.
If it’s turf toe it’s all about pain management and how well you can deal with discomfort, Levis is to much of a competitor to sit out unless he physically can’t play, I bet he does everything he can to try and play Saturday
Didn't Levis have a finger injury? I recall one of his fingers pointing west while the rest of his fingers were pointing east? Non-throwing hand?
Yes, non-throwing hand. That's not the injury that could keep him sidelined this Saturday.
Turf toe is ****not**** a short term injury, as this has been described. That injury is as bad as the dreaded high ankle sprain.
Lmao if you think Levis is a kid who would even consider pulling the plug.
I've had turf toe two or three times, bad, and it has me limping. It can be a nasty little thing.
Of course he could end up anywhere if he transfers. But if I were guessing I would expect Georgia Tech if he leaves. Here is why, he originally committed to OU, went on a visit didn't want to be that far from home, decomitted and committed to UGA a week or so later. His dad is the coach at a private school in Athens, his grandparents are there and aren't moving. Kid wants to be near home.
But if UKs back up plays well and wins, thats a great thing. If you say you play big time football, one player out can’t stop the show.. It’s put up or shit up if Levi’s doesn’t play.
He
I have just seen his name mentioned, if he wants to come here we will welcome him
What you gonna say if Sheron comes in and throws for three-fiddy and three TD’s?
If you're a lineman, sure. Playing QB w turf toe is another story completely
Yea I just think Levis is too much of a competitor to sit out unless he is forced to
Having been a Reds fan back in the early 2000's this sounds like a move they would make when a starting pitcher gives up 7 runs in 1 and a third ... you could almost guarantee the next day the pitcher would be sent to the DL or have an injury to report . The P shows no sign of injury , just got bombed . And it was never " he just had a horrible outing" , it was blamed on something else.
If I was a bettin man, which I am not, my $$$ would be on Big Will starting Sat. night. Guy is a warrior.
Vandagriff is one than soem people have said the beck kid as well
The ONLY people I’ve seen wanting the backup quarterback to play were just wanting the backup to get a little game experience. Experience that would be valuable in a situation such as Levis not being able to play. I wouldn’t think that would be too hard to understand , but continue bitching about people bitching , lol .

Random fact here . My wife got turf toe playing the Wii !
I don’t think Hogan had anything to do with Allen transferring. I had been told that Sheron had inched ahead of Allen last year , before Hogan was even a thought.
Louisville has a receiver (Wiggins) that got turf toe in the 2nd game and is having surgery and is finished for the season.
Personally I have zero interest in a 4* or 5* who sat the bench at Bama/Georgia/Ohio coming to UK from the portal, expecting to be handed the '23 keys . Gimme a G5 guy who has played & started for a season or 2.
Yep. Just depends on severity. It’s essentially sprain or tear. Hopefully Levis’s is minor.
That is great news, taking the Cat’s now and only giving a few points. Should be a easy win if Will plays and plan on more CRod handoff’s either way.
That would be the ideal situation, but if the boise state kid Is the best option, taking a chance in a 5 star talent might be the better option
We're gonna do great. Our staff has shown they can and will get someone in here to lead this team if Will doesn't stay and our backups aren't ready.
When Beau Allen checked out on us, we knew this could become an issue. Like it or not, this has been hanging over us since that happened. I’m putting my faith in coaches that behind the scenes they have preparing the other 2 guys. It’s a problem with our offense not blowing people out. We don’t really get the backup any meaningful playing time. And let’s be honest, we haven’t seen Levis doing the daredevil stuff he did last year. He’s a top 7 pick in the draft, he’s going to protect himself, the coaches are going to protect him so if it means we have to take an L, we will take one. And we should all be ok with it.
