Kentucky’s weekly media schedule didn’t call for Mark Stoops to speak after practice until Thursday, but the UK head coach made an exception on Tuesday. Stoops commented on the suspension of Dorian Baker, Drew Barker, Tymere Dubose and Stanley Williams stemming from an on-campus incident on Sunday night. He made it clear their actions were unacceptable, but was sure they were a departure from the character of the four true freshmen.  “We have some good kids that used poor judgment, that made a mistake,” Stoops said. “They know they made a mistake and they’re being held accountable for it. We tried to address it quickly and decisive. They were wrong. And, like I said, they were remorseful. They realize it now.” Stoops first learned the players were involved in the incident minutes before his weekly press conference on Monday. After gathering facts, the decision to suspend them was announced just hours later.  “We do like we try to do whether it’s a win, a loss or a mistake or anything good or bad,” Stoops said. “We hit it right on, right in the face. We tell them what’s going on and what they’re accountability’s going to be both publicly and to their team.” Beyond the public suspension, the matter was addressed internally within the team, according to Stoops. He said Wildcats now had some “closure” on the issue. “We have expectations,” Stoops said. “We have core values within our program. We try to live them each and every day. We understand that we’re not perfect, just like somebody within our family. We made a mistake. They’re going to be held accountable and we’ll move on.” For UK, moving on means preparing for a stiff test against South Carolina on Saturday evening. The suspensions caused a minor distraction on Monday, but nothing to derail their game-week work. “We’re fine,” Stoops said. “We’re good. We had a great day Sunday of coaches prepping and we had a good day all day Monday.” Tuesday wasn’t quite as good, as Stoops described the late-afternoon practice as just “OK.” UK will have to improve with the Gamecocks (3-2, 2-2 Southeastern Conference) waiting. South Carolina has played arguably the toughest schedule in the country to this point, scoring wins over Georgia, East Carolina and Vanderbilt and losing to Texas A&M and Missouri. The Gamecocks led 20-7 in the fourth quarter last weekend against Missouri, but gave up 14 unanswered in the final seven minutes to lose 21-20. The Gamecocks’ performance, however, was still impressive to the offensive coordinator tasked with preparing for them. “Got a good football team rolling in here on Saturday night; they’ll be a hungry football team,” Neal Brown said. “I’m impressed, really impressed with what they did on Saturday night. I watched the TV, watched it live and then watching it on coaches’ film. They held a very good Missouri offense to ballpark 280 yards, 150 pass and 130 rushing. Very impressive. They’ve gotten better.”
