Kentucky superstar Randall Cobb is ready for his last shot at the Tennessee Volunteers in Neyland Stadium.
Cobb grew up as a Tennessee fan thanks to his father’s love of Rocky Top. He even sold hot dogs at Neyland Stadium during a high school fundraiser.
“I’ve got a few memories from Neyland,” Cobb said. “I need one more good one.”
The Kentucky wide receiver slash quarterback slash return man gets his final shot at the Vols in Knoxville on Saturday. Cobb was not born the last time the Wildcats defeated the Volunteers in football.
Cobb talked to [URL=”http://espn.go.com/blog/sec/post/_/id/17166/cobb-gets-one-last-shot-at-vols-in-neyland”]ESPN.com[/URL] about his recruitment and why he chose Kentucky:

“We didn’t feel they were being upfront and honest,” Cobb Sr. said. “They said they were going to change their system and go to a spread to fit Randall’s talents. But then later on, they wanted to know why he didn’t come to camp so they could see him play. That was a red flag right there.
“Coach (Rich) Brooks told Randall he would like to have him as a receiver, and Randall told him his heart was at quarterback. Coach Brooks told him they would give him a chance at quarterback, and that’s where Randall played his freshman year.
“I really think Randall just felt more at ease with everything and everybody at Kentucky and more at home, too.”
