Former Kentucky tackles earn starting positions on power conference teams

Rosters in college football can change quickly in the transfer portal. Kentucky has been able to take advantage of this roster-building tool, but there were some departing players that the Wildcats lost to other power conference schools.

Two former tackles have found starting positions at their new schools.

Deondre Buford is now a redshirt junior with three years of eligibility remaining. The former four-star recruit played 210 snaps for Kentucky last season at both tackle spots. The Detroit (Mich.) Martin Luther King product entered the transfer portal after spring practice and ultimately landed at Cincinnati.
