UK HealthCare job program for football players under investigation

The Kentucky Wildcats are going to be getting Chris Rodriguez back in a couple of weeks when the Cats make the trip to face the Ole Miss Rebels.

However, we now know why Rodriguez continues to be out and why Jordan Wright missed the season opener.

In documents released by the school, it is revealed that the University of Kentucky launched an investigation back in February into members of the football team for allegedly filing inaccurate time cards while working for UK HealthCare.

The names of the players are redacted, but Jon Hale of the Herald-Leader reported that two players in particular were being investigated.
