I am happy that he is returning, but suprised that he didn't go pro. UK's defense should be solid next season.

Now let's hope we significantly upgrade the offense during the off-season. I hope the QBs and receivers spend as much off-season time as they possibly can working on running pass routes and catching the ball. They have to get to where it just comes naturally in a game.

Totally Unexpected and GREAT NEWS!, almost noone gave him a shot to return. He IS an ALL-AMERICAN DB! Our Defense now has a chance to be equally as good as in 2008, now, lets stay HEALTHY!

I was surprised as well, but I'm happy he's returning. I would have projected him as a third-round pick this year. If he has another stellar year at UK, he could move up to first round draft pick. I can think of at least a dozen NFL teams that could use his services right now. He stands to be in very favorable conditions for his future after next season.

I'm happily surprised as well. I think he's a great player and definitely has a pro career ahead of him. I think it says a lot about the direction our program is heading and how much the players respect the coaching staff.

With Lindley, Jarmon, and Johnson all returning, we should have a good-to-excellent defense.
A healthy Locke, plus older-and-wiser receivers (including the oh-so-crafty Cobb), and Hartline being pushed by Newton and possibly Mossakowski (depending on his recovery from surgery) makes it look hopeful for an offensive renaissance next year as well.
A strong defense, coupled with an offense that might be significantly improved gives me the warm fuzzies about 2009!

Of the three I thought Lindley would go mostly because he is already 23 years old so that will make him going on 25 after one more season. Happy he is returning though!
