Kentucky football: Quarterback dust settles meaning time to move forward

Kentucky quarterback Will Levis

When Kentucky football coach Mark Stoops made the announcement on Sunday that Will Levis would be the starting quarterback it shouldn’t have come as any big surprise and one everyone should have seen coming.

What we clearly didn’t see was the immediate departure of Joey Gatewood into the transfer portal after he didn’t get a job as the No. 1 signal-caller, but figured to get playing time.

The numerous other quarterbacks on the roster I’m sure watched all this play out and are realizing what their next steps would be.

Now that all the dust has settled it’s time to move forward and set our sights on September 4, the opening game of the 2021 season when Louisianna Monroe comes to Lexington.
