In the days leading up to Kentucky’s road trip to Columbia, whispers of a hamstring injury for Wan’Dale Robinson began growing louder in Lexington. The extent of the ailment was uncertain, but it was enough to limit the standout receiver in practice throughout the week.
To open the day Saturday, word got around that Robinson would play, but potentially on limited reps. At minimum, it was a nagging issue likely to bother him throughout the game.
When push came to shove, though, the team knew Robinson would fight through the pain and help his team however he could.
