AW-Video: Stoops speaks about the UK-EKU incident

Kentucky quarterback Drew Barker, wide receiver Dorian Baker and defensive lineman Tymere Dubose were among the Wildcats involved in an altercation in January that began at a Richmond nightclub and eventually spilled into an EKU dorm.

Former UK defender Patrick Graffree, who transferred to EKU, was caught on a dorm security camera knocking Barker to the ground with a blow to the head, which ultimately led to his suspension from the program. EKU offensive player Colton Scurry, who Richmond police investigated as the aggressor in the incident, was injured in the initial altercation and spent time in the hospital. Both players were reinstated to the team this summer by EKU coach Dean Hood.

Stoops says he will discuss the situation with his team at practice today and will show “zero tolerance” for any problems this week and during Saturday's game.
