Impact Minchey was widely expected to be Kentucky's starter in 2026 after he transferred from Notre Dame. His play this spring has backed up that notion. He reportedly notched a number of impressive passes, although struggled slightly with inconsistency when he was forced to operate outside of the pocket. The 6-foot-2 gunslinger tossed for 196 yards last season in mop-up duty, but his legs are dangerous as well, and he ran for 84 yards and a score last fall on just seven carries.
