“It tarnishes your image.”

LEXINGTON, Ky. (WTVQ) – Derek Willis knows he made a huge mistake.  That mistake?  His arrest for public intoxication in Boone County back in June, where he was found passed out next to the driver’s side door of a vehicle.

Coach Cal said back in August Willis’ punishment would be handled internally and that no suspension for any games would be dealt out.

Hear from Willis, for the first time since his arrest, on what he felt immediately following that mistake and how he feels now after some reflection, in the video.
