Tuesday Practice Notes

Lose one, gain one

Following Tuesday’s practice Coach Rich Brooks announced that senior receiving leader Dickey Lyons will be out the rest of the season with a knee injury that occurred in the 2^nd half of the Kentucky/South Carolina game. This ends a career which he ranks in the top 5 in receptions for the university.

The loss of Lyons will be devastating but on a brighter side, DeMoreno Ford, who sustained an injury while scoring a 48 yard touchdown catch against Alabama, will return to action this week. Ford is now Kentucky’s most experienced wide out as a junior.
