Over the next few days, we’re going to hear a lot of stories about Jared Lorenzen. He was Kentucky Football’s folk hero, after all. Bruce Feldman of The Athletic reached out to Hal Mumme, who shared some great anecdotes about Jared, specifically that cannon of an arm.
After Lorenzen had signed with Kentucky, the Wildcats had a summer camp with eight to 10 highly recruited high school QB prospects. “We set up two red dummies about 20 yards downfield and we had a receiver standing in between and the quarterbacks had to throw this hole shot,” Mumme says.
