Big Blue Links for Wednesday:
- Chip Cosby of the Herald-Leader writes that coaches are mum on whether it will be Morgan Newton or Will Fidler at quarterback for UK on Saturday.

- Ryan Alessi of the Herald-Leader reports on the $3 million Billy Gillispie agreement with UK.

- The H-L’s Jennifer Smith writes on Rebecca Gray’s second chance with UK hoops’ team.
- Brett Dawson of the Courier-Journal reports that Jake Lanefski could miss Auburn game.
