It doesn't seem like that long ago when Danny Trevathan came to UK as an unheralded two-star recruit during the Rich Brooks era.
He would then slowly develop into an All-Conference linebacker and follow in what's been a strong line of backers to come out of Lexington. He also helped UK end the dreaded streak against Tennessee, and my favorite memory of him is watching he and his teammates celebrating that win, which was his final game in Lexington.
But few former Cats at any position have landed an NFL contract like what Danny boy is about to get.
