Randall Cobb is one of the best football players to ever put on a Kentucky uniform. Yes, Tim Couch nearly won the Heisman, and your grandfather will argue George Blanda or Art Still cannot be topped. But in terms of an all-around tremendous football player, give me Mr. Golden Eyes, Randall Cobb.
The buzz around message boards in 2008 regarding his abilities started before he played his first game, and it wasn’t because he was a prized recruit. An undersized three-star athlete, Cobb wowed everyone with his knack for the game.
Three years later after playing nearly every position on the field, Cobb racked up 22 rushing touchdowns, 13 receiving touchdowns, five passing touchdowns, and two punt return touchdowns at UK.
