Season up in smoke?



UK's most athletic player and possible starting quarterback was busted for possessing marijuana.

Big deal? Definitely, as far as the team is concerned. Kentucky's roster is deeper and more talented than at any time in the last 20 years, but they have serious question marks at quarterback and wide receiver.

If Pulley wins the QB spot, his running ability will go a long way to mask the inefficiencies at receiver.

If Hartline (or Fidler, as I think may happen at some point this year) is the QB, Pulley can be used as a receiver. Possibly the best receiver.

Looks bleak. So it's a good time for me to go out on a limb with this prediction:

The University of Kentucky football team will finish the regular season with an 8-4 record.

And they'll start either 6-1 or 7-0. I'm almost, but not quite, willing to go out on the 7-0 limb.
