Just very odd. I totally understood his reason for transferring and I can only guess that he lost his passion for the game, and that is sad because he has so much talent.
Good luck in whatever you do.
Best of luck in your future endeavors Brock..that UGA degree you earned will help in the coming years..GoDAWGS!
I was surprised he didn’t have more success at Kentucky, but he had quite a college career: two national championships and a year as a starter in the SEC. I’m sure he’ll do well in whatever decides to do.
Always thought he could be a good one. But opportunities never fell in place for him. Life throws a lot of curves and hopefully he follows God’s plan and is successful in what ever path he travels.
Seems like it was a combination of injuries and the simple fact that UK gave up on him. I wish things had turned out better for him. I still get a cheap thrill when I see Matthew Stafford slinging the ball. Best of luck, Brock!!
That's disappointing. My assumption would be that maybe injuries has reduced his upside. Otherwise, I don't understand. He could find a school at a lower level with some decent receivers and rack up some decent stats. Not likely to be an early round pick, but he still could have a future in the NFL.
Sure sorry to hear this . May God open doors of opportunity for you and bless you in your future endeavors.
Perhaps this is indeed…."GODS PLAN"……Brock, the DGD distinction you earned will always define you….follow where HE leads and blessings will always abound.
Nothing wrong with Vandergrift's decision whatsoever. At the end of the day, his talents were not at the level to make a career of throwing the football professionally. I think he has lost his starting position at Kentucky. I wish him the best, as he is a great person. He can always take pride that his best game in college football was against his old Alma Mater!
Wish him the best. I’m sure it was a difficult decision and hope he’s in good health.
