OK, but still a small guy right? Too small for the Big 10 as @Warzone said? Except for Moore did just fine as a small guy. At which point his argument isn't about size any more, is it?
Like I mentioned to thill, UK is utilizing him more effectively as a WR.
Moore was light years ahead of WR as far as talent (imo). AA was a more diminutive guy and seemed to do ok in the B1G. Its not his size. It is his size trying to do the role he is trying. If he wants to be a pure WR he is small. If he takes handoffs and is more of a hybrid guy, he could make it work. But he said he didn't want to do that. Even though that is exactly what he is doing in Kentucky.
Only 4 carries at UK but leads the team with 25 catches for 402 yards. That's a 16.1 yard catch average. In today's offenses even the little outside guys have a few hand offs.
Still, you brought up size, talent, etc. I'm just saying he's being better utilized at UK as a WR.
He was recruited by Nebraska as an Athlete, and he expressed a desire to carry the ball. He did what was asked of him, and I appreciate his efforts.
He apparently changed his mind along the way, which is fine. If he's happier and more productive in his new role, good for him and Kentucky.
We agree
I think WR can excel in a system if he is surrounded by possesion WRs. We didn't have that last year. I don't know about UK. WR is still tiny.
We've had many a small player with a big impact. He played lights out for us the best he could. Wish him the best
Remove the pads and cleats.

Robinson felt a lot of pressure to pick Kentucky initially.

Interesting article on Sea of Blue about Wandale, and I think he didn't anticipate being used as much at RB as he was and felt he was moving more into the type of offense UK originally had before they changed OCs
Difference being Oliver Martin's moves were all P-5 B1G moves
PJ has slipped down the ladder for whatever reason
Seems like Lindsey has been around forever but he came in the same class with Allen, Sichterman, Bando, D. Thomas, Daniels.
JD is a year older and came in with JoJo. Stille snd Dismuke.
The covid year is keeping guys around forever.
