  When Will Levis took the field for the first time in a drill against Kentucky's first-team defense, a newcomer lined up with him in the backfield. Ramon Jefferson took the first snap with the first team, but it's probably best not to take too much from the move. The Sam Houston State transfer was one of five running backs who saw time with the first-team offense over the course of Saturday's practice, as Kavosiey Smoke, La'Vell Wright, JuTahn McClain and Chris Rodriguez each got turns as well.

Rodriguez, a second-team preseason All-SEC selection, continues to practice though his playing status remains unclear after an offseason arrest on DUI charges. He had a spectacular one-handed catch on a throw deep down the right sideline from Levis during a drill against the first-team defense. "I (didn't) think he had that in him, to be honest," Levis joked. "No, Chris is awesome. To get him more involved in the passing game was a goal of mine - and just the running backs in general was a goal of mine." Smoke, Wright and McClain "bring another level of speed" to the UK backfield, Levis said. And Jefferson has made a strong first impression on his new QB, who called the 5-foot-10, 215-pound senior running back "a bowling ball" and "a little Mighty Mouse." "He's got a good feel," Levis said. "You see he bounces that when he's supposed to bounce it, he cuts when he's supposed to cut. You watch his tape, it just kind of jumps out immediately." - Courier Journal
