After watching the team?s first major preseason scrimmage on film, University of Kentucky Coach Rich Brooks confirmed his initial impression that it went well.
?After watching film, I was pleased with the way we hustled and hit (during Saturday?s scrimmage),? Brooks said after the Wildcats? two-hour practice Sunday afternoon at the Nutter Training Center. ?The defense was flying around and making some good hits.?
Brooks said that he wanted quarterback Andr? Woodson to get more passing under pressure in order to get him more game-ready, and that the backup quarterbacks need more consistency in their performance.
Brooks also noted that defensive linemen Ricky Lumpkin, Myron Pryor, and Jeremy Jarmon did some good things in the scrimmage and that sophomore linebacker Micah Johnson continues to show improvement.
Brooks announced that defensive end Nii Adjei Oninku appears to have injured a medial collateral ligament in his knee during Saturday?s scrimmage. Oninku will have an MRI exam to define the extent of the injury.
