It is officially August, which means we are just 29 days away from kickoff. With the cooler temperatures this week, I couldn’t help but turn my thoughts to crisp fall days in the Bluegrass filled with football and tailgating and all the excitement that brings.
UK held its annual Women’s Football Clinic last weekend. It was a good blend of technical instruction and fun activities for the participants.
One eye-opening fact I learned: many of our players must consume 7000-8000 calories a day during the season! Thankfully UK can now provide unlimited meals and snacks under the NCAA’s new guidelines to help our student-athletes meet their nutritional needs.
If you are like me and can’t get football off your mind, here are some photos to get us through to next week’s Media and Fan Days.
