Kentucky Wildcats offensive tackles Deondre Buford and Jeremy Flax do not live in a media vacuum.
The two Detroit products, projected to be first-time starters for UK this fall, are very aware that many college football pundits are saying the biggest question in evaluating whether UK football will succeed in 2022 is how the Wildcats’ two new tackles perform.
“I know this is what everybody has been speculating about, wondering what is going to happen at our position,” Buford said Wednesday at UK Football Media Day at Kroger Field. “I am ready to mature, step up and take that role.”
