The new UK football depth chart is out and Drew Barker is still listed as the starting quarterback for this weekend’s game against South Carolina.
Barker left the New Mexico State game early with a back injury and never returned. Stephen Johnson then came off the bench to lead the Wildcats to 62 points and a win.
It’s possible that Mark Stoops is just forcing the Gamecocks to prepare for both Barker and Johnson.

Stoops didn’t give an explanation to the media.
“Drew is listed as the starter on the depth chart for a reason,” Stoops explained.
