Some Kentucky football fans were left scratching their heads on Monday when redshirt freshman Ronnie Shields tweeted out to his followers that he had just found out he had been switched from tight end to safety. Rest assured, UK fans, the 6-foot-5, 239-pound tight end isn’t switching sides, much less positions (if he were to, safety would probably be the last position group he’d go to). I spoke with Tony Neely, UK’s sports information director for football, on Tuesday and he confirmed that Shields is not moving anywhere. For what it’s worth, Shields tweeted Tuesday that his account had been hacked.
- To the right is a picture of UK’s newest fact book for the 2011 season. While the cover certainly has the look of a media guide/yearbook, it is, in fact, just a fact book. What’s the difference? The fact book is strictly intended for media use only and will not be on sale to fans.
- If you’re wondering how to get your preseason UK football fix without a media guide, we still have those as well in the form of the 2011 Official Kentucky Football Yearbook, which you can purchase here. Those 128-page yearbooks cost $10 and are available at your local Kentucky Kroger, Fan Outfitters and other select retail locations.
