Josh Clemons

An admirable tale of perseverance, Josh Clemons returned to the field in 2014 after missing two and one-half seasons due to injuries. As a freshman, Clemons was leading UK in rushing six games into his freshman season when he suffered a season-ending knee injury. Clemons was unable to return to the field in 2012 then tore his Achilles tendon shortly before preseason camp started in 2013, causing him to miss his second consecutive season. He returned to the field for spring practice in 2014 then made his official return in the season-opener vs. UT Martin as part of a five-man running back corp. After totaling nine carries as a fourth-year junior, Clemons elected to transfer following his graduation from Kentucky.
