The injury bug continues to haunt the Kentucky Wildcats.
This time, it’s starting guard Eli Cox who suffered a significant injury vs. Tennessee that will likely end his 2021 season, head coach Mark Stoops revealed Monday.
Backup guard Austin Dotson is set to be Cox’s replacement at right guard.
Stoops says UK guard Eli Cox will likely be out for the remainder of the season. Austin Dotson will step into that role. Some other guys could be mixed in.
