Some lessons learned from television are applicable in real life. Ted Lasso‘s inspirational message has made its way into the Kentucky football locker room, particularly the young wide receivers’ room.
When the Wildcats open the season Saturday night against Miami (OH), two freshmen will be in the starting lineup at wide receiver, Barion Brown and Dane Key. Even though they were each four-star, top 300 recruits, neither of them have played in front of 60,000 fans before. Nothing can prepare them for the bright lights, but a little Ted Lasso might help.
