Kentucky Wildcats open up about walking out of practice

We’re living in an unprecedented time in history right now, especially within the world of sports.

Yesterday, we saw the Milwaukee Bucks of the NBA lead the charge in refusing to play their games as a protest to police brutality and social injustice. This was sparked by the Jacob Blake incident a few days ago in Kenosha, Wisconsin.

After the Bucks decided to boycott yesterday’s game, we’ve seen a domino effect make its way through the MLB, WNBA, NFL and now College Football.

The entire Kentucky Football team decided to walk out of practice today in support of the national protests and plans to have an open dialogue with the Lexington police and how to improve the community.
