KENTUCKY
Kentucky CB Chris Westry's impressive stat for 2016
No player goes a while season without making a mistake, but in one area of his game, Kentucky CB Chris Westry was perfect. Pro Football Focus recently noted Westry was only of two cornerbacks who played at least 50 percent of their team’s snaps to not miss a tackle.
Only two college cornerbacks didn't miss a tackle this year:
Kentucky's Chris Westry
OSU's Marshon Lattimore

As a cornerback, Westry doesn’t have as many tackling opportunities as other positions, but his 42 total tackles was No. 8 among all UK defensive players.
Westry and the Wildcats take on Georgia Tech in the TaxSlayer Bowl on Dec. 31.
Great Job Chris!!!!!
I did see him turn his back once or twice to keep from getting run over by a ball carrier. I guess if you don’t make contract its not considered a miss.
Good job Chris.
Who in the he-l ever heard of this stat?
No 69 on the defense should be mentioned because I never saw him miss a tackle either. In fact I don’t remember him being close enough to reach out and touch a ball carrier very often. The excuse that he was double teamed all the time – sure, and the replacement they finally made for him wasn’t I guess was he? Check the stats for these two nose tackles/guards and get back to me. No. 69 was a three/four star depending on what recruiting service you which to look at. They developed him as well as the TWO four star quarterbacks this staff has had. Fewest missed tackles? lol.
If you actually knew how to read then you would have noticed that the article said the stat was taken for people who played 50% of their teams stats. Just goes to show your true stupidity.
You can bash Fat Elam because he actually does suck, but you are a joke of a Kentucky fan, & when you have nothing good to say about the program and make fun of and bash the programs and its players, especially when someone on our team is recognized for something substantial, you shouldn’t be on this website, and every other real Kentucky fan agrees, real fans hope and at least pay attention and say positive things about the program, even if they are realistic, you sir, are a joke
Dude, he’s not a Kentucky fan. It’s a joke, stop paying attention and getting worked up about what he’s saying. If people stop responding, he’ll go away.
I disagree about Elam
I do think he should have redshirted and worked on his conditioning and footwork his first year
The problem with Kentucky is players like Elam can get lazy and they still get to play because there is no one behind them to take their spot
Love having such a dependable player in the secondary!
Poor old ggezer lonely and isolated Paris is still trying to troll someone on SDS
Ever notice how Paris says the same stuff over and over
Paris go get tested at the Alzheimer’s institute at the U.K. Medical center soon
lol, I read just fine. YOU said he played 50% of the teams ‘STATS’. Tell us genius, how had it is to do that?
lol
Tweedle Dum, Still ain’t got the hanger down’s to tell me your name? Momma would be proud you had behind another. Where’s your running buddy, Tweedle Dee?
Tweedle, I REMEMBER YOU!
You are imfamous for causing the Lexington Herald for changing their posting policy. You know, when you use to bash people, humbly I’ll have to admit it was me the majority of the time. The policy that requires individuals to have a Facebook account to post. When it went into effect, you disappeared. Huh, wonder why?
Let’s see what I can remember. From the Berea, Kentucky area, played high school basketball and was quite a 4th grad church league basketball coach.
You would get ban from the Herald for your personal attacks, and in a few weeks come back with a different screen name, only to be thrown off again. And to have some one back you up, you developed another and sometimes many others to back you up. Spewing the same comments. Their posts would be in the same form, practically the same wording and always followed right after your post. I see you have developed Persimmon in the same manner.
You expertise was in bathroom comments, a person’s ignorance because of their age, and mental health commitment.
Let me know what basketball site you hide on. Of course its going to be you can hide behind a screen name. I want to join so you can bash me there.
The Berea Flash!
