Friday Quickies: SEC Media Days Wrap-Up edition

The Wildcats get their chance to talk about the upcoming season.

NCAA Football: SEC Media Day Vasha Hunt-USA TODAY Sports

As the weather continues to heat up outside, it becomes easier and easier to feel that autumn chill that comes with football season.

As SEC Media Days have concluded down in Birmingham, Alabama, the Kentucky Wildcats finally had their time in the spotlight on Thursday. Lynn Bowden, Kash Daniel, and Logan Stenberg represented the Wildcats alongside Mark Stoops to discuss the upcoming football season.

Kentucky is coming off of a record-setting ten-win season, and many have counted the Wildcats out already after losing Benny Snell, Josh Allen, and almost the entire secondary to the NFL. However, if you ask the guys still on the roster you will quickly find out that this team fully intends on not only avoiding a lapse, but on taking yet another step forward.
