Stoops laughs about Flannigan injury

LEXINGTON, Ky. (WTVQ) – We mentioned back on Friday the Cats will be thinner at linebacker than originally planned.

No Courtney Love for Saturday with the NCAA appeal unlikely to go through.

Plus no Ryan Flannigan at this point thanks to the hit he took in practice from d-line fullback Jacob Hyde.

The good news?

At least coach Stoops can still joke and laugh about the play while understanding the seriousness of losing a great athlete.

Hear from Stoops in the video.
