YAHTZEE! Quarterback Joey Gatewood will transfer to KENTUCKY

By Maggie Davis | December 5, 2019 | 6:04pm |

YAHTZEE! Former Auburn quarterback Joey Gatewood has announced he will be transferring to the University of Kentucky, in a tweet he posted Thursday evening. He is considered arguably the best transfer prospect in the nation.

Gatewood, the No. 3 dual-threat quarterback and the No. 36 overall player from the class of 2018, took multiple visits to UK’s campus before ultimately deciding the Bluegrass will be his new home. One visit came last Saturday, when he was in attendance for Kentucky’s 45-13 beatdown over the Louisville Cardinals.

The 6-foot-5, 233 pound redshirt freshman played in seven games for the Tigers this season, completing five of seven passing attempts with two touchdowns. He added 29 rushes for 148 yards and three touchdowns on the ground.

Vince Marrow is pretty excited.

We’ll have more on Gatewood’s decision to transfer right here on Kentucky-Sports-Radio-dot-com throughout the rest of the evening. In the mean time, you can show him some love on Twitter: @Joey1gatewood

      So, all we need is one great QB? what happens when he goes down with injury? We aren’t always going to have an LBJ at WR. might be good to have a stable full of great QB’s like the power schools do….

    We basically just signed Cam Newton to be our QB in the 2021-22 season (has to sit out next year unless a waiver is granted by NCAA).
