More Post Game UK Football Links and Notes

John Clay has videos of Morgan Newton, Trevard Lindley and LaRod King after the EKU game today. Newton had an excellent game and the coaches have to feel good about his performance. Lindley didn't play in the second half after having his ankle stepped on, while LaRod King continues to make plays as a true freshman.

Rich Brooks didn't know Cobb wouldn't play either writes Larry Vaught. Cobb injured his wrist in practice on Thursday, which led Rich Brooks to hold him out today's game against EKU. Instead, Cobb found himself on the sideline wearing a headset coaching the receivers.

Chris Matthews finally makes a big play. Matthews admits sometimes he isn't going 100% because he doesn't fully understand the offense. The wide receiver will get better each week and will become a bigger part of the offense.

Sam Maxwell is leading the team with four interceptions after his pick today. Rich Brooks feels that Maxwell is one of the most underrated players in the league. Maxwell has been huge for the Cats all season and hopefully he will continue to play at such a high level. He should be a candidate for All-SEC honors.

'Workmanlike' Cats put away EKU 37-12 writes Chip Cosby. Considering UK played without their starting quarterback, running back and wide receiver the Cats did manage to take care of business. UK started out a little flat, but simply over matched EKU in the second half. This was a must win for UK and now the team can turn their attention to Vanderbilt. As always, the next game is the most important of the season.

Rich Brooks said after the game that Mike Hartline would practice and could resume his starting role at quarterback if ready. Hopefully, Hartline can have a good week in practice so the coaches can make the best decision for the team.

Scout is reporting that Ronnie Shields (TE) and Jabari Johnson (LB) visited UK today and brought teammate Chris Sharpe (CB) who is not committed. With Raymond Sanders already committed to UK, that makes three commits from Stephenson High School. Could Chris Sharpe be the next?
