Thanksgiving means something different to football players. For many, this is a holiday where people get together, eat too much good food, relax, and enjoy watching the pigskin move around the gridiron. The players don’t get the same luxuries, although it’s clear that there are plenty of Kentucky football players who appreciate something we all share during this holiday.
After Wednesday’s practice, each position coach hosted the players for a family get-together at their respective homes. Kentucky will go through its usual Thursday walk-through today at an earlier time, giving the players off for the afternoon and evening.
