The Kentucky running back room has undergone a dramatic offseason transformation. Different doesn’t necessarily mean worse.
The Cats are adjusting to life after Benny Snell and Chris Rodriguez, two of the three most productive running backs in school history. Over six years, Kentucky leaned on its bell-cows. Now offensive coordinator Liam Coen is learning how to run the ball by distributing it to multiple players with varying talents.
“I do have a lot of confidence in the guys that are here right now,” Coen said at Friday’s media day.
