PJ Washington opens up about “Bootgate” on KSR

PJ Washington made a special guest appearance on Wednesday morning’s Kentucky Sports Radio radio show to chat with Ryan Lemond, Alan Cutler and me about his past two years as a Wildcat and what’s ahead. Of the many topics that came up throughout the 25-minute conversation, the one about his postseason injury (or “Bootgate”) is the most newsworthy.

Washington confirmed the injury occurred in the final minutes of Kentucky’s SEC Tournament semifinal game in Nashville, explaining to KSR, “It was two minutes left in the Tennessee game. I came down and felt something weird, and just kinda had to play through it.
