This weekend, 61 University of Kentucky student athletes will walk across the stage at Rupp Arena to receive their diplomas. Dillon Pulliam will be the lone men’s basketball player to walk, while the football program will be represented by eleven graduates: Jordan Bonner, David Bouvier, Dylan Greenberg, Jacob Hyde, Austin MacGinnis, Adrian Middleton, Kayaune Ross, Kendall Randolph, Charles Walker, Denzil Ware, and Oliver White.
Who is Oliver White, you ask? He was a tight end from 1981-84 and returned to school recently to earn his diploma. Women’s basketball player Mia Daniel, 1990-93, did the same. To learn more about White’s story, I suggest you check out the Herald-Leader’s excellent feature from earlier today.
