The Kentucky Wildcats had to get creative at the quarterback position last season after Terry Wilson got hurt, turning to WR Lynn Bowden Jr., who filled the position admirably.
This year, though, Wilson is back and will be counted on to lead a more traditional Kentucky offense.
On Saturday, coach Mark Stoops said Wilson has looked like his old speedy self during practices this week, which is a good sign for the Wildcats:
Stoops: QB Terry Wilson has been running really well when he pulls the ball down and scrambles. "He looks like a bolt again."

Wilson is (naturally) a better passer than Bowden, since he has actually played quarterback at the college level. However, he is also a talented runner, just like Bowden.
If Wilson is the dual-threat quarterback he was before his injury, Kentucky’s offense will be dangerous once again in 2020.
