While most of the Big Blue Nation’s attention has been on the quarterback competition, there’s another ongoing position competition that will have a greater impact in the win-loss column.
This fall Kentucky must replace Austin MacGinnis, the school’s all-time leading scorer that secured at least a pair of season-changing wins throughout his illustrious career. Finding another MacGinnis is impossible, but special teams coordinator Dean Hood believes the Cats have a couple of exceptional replacements on the roster.
Senior Miles Butler and true freshman Chance Poore have battled for the position throughout the preseason. Hood has been pleased with each player’s progress.
