A Kentucky offensive lineman who had a social media outburst that went after the coaching staff following Thursday morning’s practice issued a public apology on Twitter later in the day.
“I would like to apologize to my teammates and coaching staff for taking to Twitter and bringing unwanted attention to our locker room,” E.J. Price tweeted at 4:42 p.m.
In the tweet, Price said he was “extremely stressed and frustrated” earlier in the day when he called out the coaching staff for being “mediocre,” and not of high character among other things.
In a news conference after Price announced he was leaving the team, Kentucky Coach Mark Stoops said the player arrived for practice late and then left early.
