What Xavier Peters can do for Kentucky’s Defense in 2019

“We’re excited to have Xavier available to play this season,” Mark Stoops said. “I appreciate the NCAA understanding Xavier’s situation. I also want to thank our compliance office for the great job they did with the appeal and for Xavier’s patience with the process.”

Peters spent one season at Florida State before he deciding it was best to finish his college career closer to his infant son in Cincinnati.

“I’m so excited,” Peters said “I was hoping this would happen because all of this has been for my son. He’s my life. I can’t wait to get out there with my team on Saturdays.
