With no Terry Wilson in the lineup for the remainder of the 2019 season, Kentucky is now turning to grad transfer Sawyer Smith who started seven games for Troy last season and recorded a 5-2 record. As a recruit, the low three-star prospect was listed as a dual-threat quarterback who flipped his commitment from UCF to Troy to play for Neal Brown. In his playing time, he has proven to be a very accurate deep ball passer.
With the Florida native taking over the reigns we could see a change in how Kentucky attacks opposing defenses.
