Chris Rodriguez Jr. to return vs. Ole Miss; statement from Mark Stoops

The Kentucky Wildcats football team is 2-0, coming off a historic victory over Florida in Gainesville. This is even more impressive when you consider the Wildcats’ depleted depth at the running back position.

However, on Monday some good news was announced. Chris Rodriguez Jr. will return as Kentucky travels to Oxford to play a top-25 ranked Ole Miss team on October 1st.

In addition, head coach Mark Stoops, now the program’s all-time winningest head coach, reacted to the return of Rodriguez during his Monday press conference.
