If you are wondering which Kentucky player might give out the most memorable quotes this season, let me predict it will be freshman BJ Boston.
He might also be the best player on the team — something most recruiting analysts would also predict.
But when it comes to quotes, he’s good. I mean, really good.
What does he think about the UK schedule that finally got released Friday?
“I’m excited. I feel like a dog in a cage. I’m just ready to get out and go to war with my guys,” Boston said.
Dog in a cage? Tough to top that quote on scheduling.
I asked Boston what might be fair expectations for him this season.
“I really wouldn’t put expectations on me. I would just tell them to come and watch the game; I’ll put on a show every game,” Boston said.
See. Confident and quotable.
Why did he decide to wear No. 3 at Kentucky rather than his regular number?
“Growing up it was 11, but I felt like (No.) 3, I had to switch it up. It’s just a new beginning, so it’s my new number. I really only play for the last name on the back of my jersey,” Boston said.
