Kentucky's Jovon Bouknight expected to take job at Marshall

Kentucky football staff member Jovon Bouknight is leaving the program to become the wide receivers coach at Marshall.

On3’s Matt Zenitz was the first to break the news.

Bouknight spent his second season at Kentucky as a quality control assistant after spending his first as the team’s wide receivers coach. He was demoted following his first year in Lexington after being arrested in May on charges of operating a motor vehicle under the influence, possession of an open alcohol beverage container in a motor vehicle and speeding 26 mph or more over the speed limit.
