The Kentucky Wildcats ‘almost’ did the unthinkable and made it a whole week without an injury.

Alas, Adou Thiero is the latest player to suffer an injury, as he sustained a concussion during the win over New Mexico State. Thiero will miss the team’s Friday matchup with Texas A&M Commerce, and his status beyond that is unclear.

Kentucky will play again in just four days vs. the No. 1 Kansas Jayhawks in the Champions Classic.

Adou Thiero (concussion protocol) is out tonight.
