Kentucky football coach Mark Stoops named Will Levis the team’s starting quarterback on Sunday.
Levis transferred to Kentucky this offseason after playing three seasons at Penn State, where he was used as both a quarterback and a running back.
In announcing the decision, Stoops praised Lévis’ effectiveness in leading the offensive.
“He won the job,” Stoops said.
Lévis played eight games last season, starting once. Meanwhile, Levis completed 33 of 55 passes for 421 yards and one score. He also rushed the ball 82 times for 260 yards and three touchdowns.
Levis beat Auburn’s former transfer Joey Gatewood to become the starter. Stoops said Gatewood informed him of his intention to be transferred.
Kentucky is scheduled to open the season at home against UL-Monroe on September 4.
