Woodyard Selected for SEC All-Freshman Team: Kentucky linebacker Wesley Woodyard has been chosen for the 2004 SEC All-Freshman Team as selected by league coaches.

Woodyard, a true freshman from LaGrange, Ga., filled numerous roles for the Wildcats this season. He began the campaign at strong safety, then moved to inside linebacker midway through the year when numerous injuries struck the linebackers. He also contributed on special teams, primarily in kick coverage. He totaled 34 tackles, including a season-high eight stops at Mississippi State.

Johnson, Marchman Plan to Transfer: Junior fullback Ronald ?Rock? Johnson and sophomore wide receiver Maurice Marchman have asked for releases and plan to transfer, Coach Rich Brooks announced Thursday.

Johnson played in nine games this season. He rushed for 26 yards and one touchdown and also caught three passes for 11 yards. He plans to attend Case-Western Reserve University in his hometown of Cleveland, Ohio, in order to be near his family.

Marchman, who is from Louisville, Ky., played in 10 games this season. He caught one pass for 11 yards and also made two tackles on special teams. Tentatively, he plans to transfer to a Division I-AA school.
