Where’s Boom?

LEXINGTON, Ky. (WTVQ) – Boom Williams has not practiced this week with the football Cats.

According to head coach Mark Stoops there’s no cause for concern for Solid Blue fans, Boom is just dealing with a personal matter.

The rumor mill started churning when Boom wasn’t in the game late against Missouri and Jojo Kemp was.

Then Boom left the field quickly following the win over Mizzou.

Monday it was Boom who dropped to number two at running back behind Jojo on the depth chart.

There were questions about Williams academically, but Stoops wouldn’t elaborate.

Instead, simply reiterated, Boom is dealing with a personal matter and may not play Saturday against Eastern Kentucky.

Running back coach Chad Scott said he expects to have Boom back soon but if he doesn’t get some reps Wednesday, he likely won’t play in the EKU game.
