Kentucky Football is Doing All of the Little Things the Right Way

They should get more in return, or fans will slowly stop investing. Ultimately, winning matters most, but the little things go a long way toward keeping fans engaged. Before Will Stein tries to stack up wins on Saturdays, the Kentucky football program is doing all of the litt...
