Lindley is old school, too
By LARRY VAUGHT
Kentucky senior cornerback Trevard Lindley thinks most people would be surprised at how tame his life away from football is. He says his little free time is spent watching TV, playing X-box, going to the mall or spending time with teammates. “There’s nothing fancy. Sorry,” he said.
Perhaps that’s why he relates to UK head coach Rich Brooks so well.
“He is old school and likes to hit a lot in practice. He gets on me just like everybody else. Favoritism does not matter to him at all. He will yell at you no matter who you are and treats you all the same,” Lindley said. “He should get a lot more respect nationwide. He is a good coach. He has got good recruits and got the program back going. He should be well respected by everyone.”
Kind of like Lindley should. He’s regarded as one of the SEC’s best players, but did not earn significant preseason all-American honors. However, that has not changed his outlook.
“My freshman year we had a lot of young players and still went to a bowl and won. As we got older, we kept getting better and that has helped us win and get even better players,” he said. “I just want to get more interceptions and defensive touchdowns this year. If I can do that, everything else will take care of itself.”
