Denzil Ware transferring to another school

He announced it via twitter

Helpful hint ... let us know who the guy is. Not everyone automatically knows who Ware is - starting OLB for UK. He is transferring as a graduate transfer which means he doesn't have to sit out a year.

Got his degree. Played well. Good for him.

I hate to lose him but I'll be rooting for him. I would like to see him transfer to a contender, a team that has a shot at their conference title and/or CFP. I was happy to see Jeff Badet join a contender in Oklahoma and I hope Ware ends up in a similar situation.

But that's 2 LB, 1 starter and 1 part-time starter (Eli Brown) to leave since the end of last season. I know Denzil got in trouble a couple of times, but LB Jordan Jones has had many more issues and he's still here. Makes you wonder if there is more to all this. Again, I have no idea.

Also 2 years in a row for a high profile grad transfer. (Badet)

Who was Denzil Ware's roommate when he was at UK. Just an odd fact to add.

Very odd.

UK just got a LB coach. Stoops was all over this guy abothow good he was/is. If so why couldnt this guy keep him.

Maybe Ware is taking the opportunity to play his final season for a team that has a realistic shot of winning more than 6 games ?

Maybe Ware can't stand the rigors and demands of a former NFL LB Coach like UK has now.

Ware is going to Jacksonville State. KSR says it is 4 hours from his hometown.
