Coaches have seen UK’s future rushing attack and promise it’s fast, powerful and dynamic

All eyes will be on Benny Snell when the Citrus Bowl kicks off and the Kentucky running back tries to scramble and scrap for the 107 yards he needs to break the school’s career rushing record.

But the UK junior, who announced his intentions to leave early for the NFL Draft this month, has been eyeing the players who will replace him at Kentucky next season.

Fans have gotten a look at Snell roommate and close friend A.J. Rose, who is expected to take over where Snell left off next season. The sophomore has rushed for 433 yards and five touchdowns this season.
