What will Brandon Garrison’s role be for the Kentucky Wildcats?
In Mark Pope’s offense, both of the centers need to be able to pass the basketball, and he will have that this season. Amari Williams is a known elite passer, but so is Kentucky backup center Brandon Garrison.
Last season as a freshman at Oklahoma State, Garrison averaged 7.5 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 1.5 assists per game. The former McDonald’s All-American is looking to boost those numbers this season.
Isaac Trotter of 247Sports predicted the role of every transfer for the Kentucky Wildcats, and he believes that Garrison will back up Williams.
Here is what Trotter believes Garrison’s role will be for the Kentucky Wildcats, “Williams is probably the best bet to start at the 5, but Garrison is going to play. The former ballyhooed recruit had some strong defensive sequences as a freshman at Oklahoma State this past season. That’s where his bread will be buttered for Kentucky. Garrison gives Kentucky a vertical lob threat and more rim protection. The ‘Cats should have a good rim protector on the floor for all 40 minutes. But don’t overlook Garrison’s playmaking. He quietly had a 13% assist rate last season. It wasn’t anything special but he should eventually be able to make reads in this offense. “
Garrison has one of the highest upsides on this Kentucky roster. He will be the backup five this season and learn from Williams. Then, next season, it will be his show, and Garrison will be one of the best bigs in the SEC. When watching game film from Garrison at Oklahoma State the flashes were clearly there, and he is set to breakout this season.
Beechwood senior wide receiver Tyler Fryman has committed to University of Kentucky football and baseball according to Hayes Fawcett of Rivals.
Fryman made the change to the Wildcats on June 26, just three days after announcing he was decommitting from Louisville Cardinals baseball. Fryman had been committed to Louisville since 2023.
The four-star recruit took an official visit to Kentucky on June 19. A week later, he’s flipped his school and added a new sport.
For Beechwood last season, Fryman caught 62 passes for 1,320 yards and 23 touchdowns. He was also the 9th Region Player of the Year in baseball and an indoor track state champion.
Fryman also had football offers from Cincinnati, Notre Dame and Ole Miss among others.
GRAYSON, Ky. (WSAZ) – New information has been released in the search for a missing woman at Grayson Lake.
According to game wardens with the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources, Marly Kinney, 19, of Ashland, was last seen at Grayson Lake on Wednesday afternoon.
They say search efforts are focused on the water at this time and include Kentucky State Police aerial support, drones, boats, and K9 assistance.
Crews suspend search for missing teen for the night
The search is now into its third day, with officials saying on and off rain has hindered their search and that a group of 50 volunteers are walking the banks of the lake to help in the search.
Search and rescue boats have been seen at the lake as well.
Officials say there are still many questions, including if Kinney is still alive and where exactly she went missing.
They also say they’ve been using a variety of equipment, including sonar and thermal detectors, as well as helicopters and underwater drones.
WSAZ received a statement from Kinney’s family Friday afternoon:
“We are very appreciative of the absolute surplus of support from law enforcement, search and rescue, 1st responders, and all of the community and its volunteers that are here with us and for us searching for Marly. We do not even know how to express our absolute gratitude to you all. We continue to have faith she will be found and brought back to us. We know we have the very best people doing all they can to bring her home.”
Anyone with information is asked to call 911.
