The Kentucky football season draws near. While DeAndre Square and Chris Rodriguez put in extra work at the Joe Craft Football Training Facility, let’s break down the most significant 73s.
#73 Sam Ball
A survivor of Charlie Bradshaw’s Thin Thirty, Sam Ball is one of the best offensive linemen in school history. A three-year letterman from 1963-65, he was a first team All-SEC and first team All-American in his final season at Kentucky. Ball played five seasons with the Baltimore Colts, appearing in two Super Bowls, before he was inducted into the UK Ring of Honor.
