The wait is almost over. The longest and most arduous offseason in all of college athletics finally ends on Saturday when Kentucky welcomes Ball State to Kroger Field. The Wildcats’ two-deep will feature multiple new faces, numbers, and names. That’s a good thing after Mark Stoops’ team suffered a disappointing 7-6 season in 2022.
The return of offensive coordinator Liam Coen and the acquisition of quarterback Devin Leary have the Big Blue Nation buzzing with anticipation. Additionally, defensive coordinator Brad White will be calling plays. White’s presence alone gives the Wildcats a fighting chance in all twelve games.
