Kentucky’s Zach Calzada Apologizes for Viral Cash-Flashing Video

The program says the benched transfer has taken responsibility for the clip that drew criticism of Kentucky’s seven-figure quarterback gamble.

Overview

  • Calzada apologized after a video circulated showing him fanning $100 bills and telling a critic named Garrett to “go get you some money.”
  • A Kentucky spokesman said Calzada has taken responsibility and apologized, indicating the team plans to move forward.
  • Reports from CBS Sports state Kentucky committed roughly $1.25 million to land Calzada from Incarnate Word, intensifying scrutiny of the decision.
  • Calzada started the first two games, completing 47.2% of his passes for 234 yards with no touchdowns before injuring his throwing shoulder.
  • Redshirt freshman Cutter Boley has since become the starter and produced 1,376 passing yards with 10 touchdowns and 7 interceptions over six starts.
