Bud Dupree got paid today for the hard work he put in as a player at Kentucky. The Steelers inked him to a 4 year, $9.2 million deal that shows what a good college career can do for you even at a lower-level SEC school like Kentucky. I’m sure Mark Stoops will translate this into a recruiting pitch, and hopefully, we’ll find the next Bud Dupree out there somewhere. UPDATE: Ed Bouchette says that Bud got a $5 million signing bonus, plus a 5th year option as well.
