Jimmy went for a visit on saturday the 28th and UK asked him to commit as a walkon until they could get a scholarship or maybe work out a red or grayshirt for him. Chaffin told me yesterday he was excited about the atmosphere and told me several schools he turned down to join the program. Such as Marshall Louisville Union ***berland Cambelsville Eastern Western and a few others further away from home. When i asked him wut position he would be playing he said they r concentrating on special teams for now but db and possibly wide reciever in the future. Good Lubk Jimmy and congratulations i know ill be pulling for ya.:dance:

Congrats...I hope he makes it on the actual roster. Hard life for a walk-on, but if he's got the kind of "heart" everyone at LC says he does, he'll make it.

BUT...as good an athlete as he is, does ANYBODY outside of Knox County really believe this kid is going to end up competing for playing time against athletes like Keenan Burton at WIDE RECEIVER? I know he looked phenomenal at LC, but that was against PINEVILLE, ***BERLAND, etc. Will be a little different up against Auburn and Florida.

I see FULLBACK in his future there possibly. MAYBE middle linebacker. Tough, hard-nosed kids with above-average athletic ability, who can get quite a bit BIGGER and still run can make it at those spots (see Nebraska in the 80s and 90s).

Would love to see this small-town kid make good though!
