Lots on the plate, not a lot of time as I plan to head off to the Kentucky State Fair here in Louisville today. So we’ll make these quick.
First off, CBS looks to have made a mistake and released their tentative schedule for football this year. Although the station usually waits 10 days before a game to decide, in order to allow for changes during the season, it also looks like they do actually highlight some games on the calendar for the future. And UK is only highlighted twice.
10/04 - 2:30 p.m.-6:00 p.m. Florida @ Arkansas or Kentucky @ Alabama (CBS HD)
11/08 - 2:30 p.m.-6:00 p.m. Alabama @ LSU or Georgia @ Kentucky (CBS HD)
Looks like CBS expects UK to possibly be 4-0 going into Tuscaloosa. As for Georgia/UK, looks like CBS is buying into that being the Dawgs trap game. Either way, hope the Cats can get on national TV again.
Secondly, the real reason why practice was canceled Monday has arrived. ESPN’s Chris Low sat down with Rich Brooks and has a two part transcipt posted on his SEC blog on ESPN.com. Part 1 here. Part 2 here.
He also writes about Jeremy Jarmon. We wrote about Jarmon’s acting abilities back in the spring. Get with the program ESPN. Here’s the best part of all three interviews:
What’s your plan at quarterback right now?
RB: (Sophomore) Mike Hartline would start, and we would see how the game went. If we were not moving the ball, I might make a change to (true freshman) Randall Cobb just to see if I could shake things up. Hartline can run a little, but Cobb can run really well. There’s a possibility early on to have a change-of-pace deal at quarterback, but my biggest concern is getting our offensive line gelled in the next two weeks
Randall Cobb = the athletic ability of Curtis Pulley without the liability on and off the field. Yipee!
That’s all for you to chew on now, but later in the week we’ll bring you the ballots of our SEC Power Poll friends to see how much they dissed Rich Brooks. They better hope they didn’t!
