Report: Brock Vandagriff retires from college football, per Kentucky spokesperson

Kentucky quarterback Brock Vandagriff has formally retired from college football, according to Lexington Herald-Leader’s Jon Hale.

Hale confirmed the news through a Kentucky spokeswoman.

Vandagriff, a junior transfer from Georgia, started the first 11 games in his first season in Lexington but was benched ahead of the regular-season finale in favor of freshman Cutter Boley. Vandagriff’s demotion came following a sub-par 2024 campaigin in which the Wildcats struggled through a 4-7 start to the season.

Vandagriff finished 2024 with 1,593 yards on 125-of-218 passing (57.3-percent)
