We've heard from anti-violence advocates in Lexington urging teens to put the guns down. But for this year's peace walk there's a major voice missing: Anita Franklin.

Probably my favorite piece 🖤 can’t wait to see it completed!
A new mural in Lexington honors the late Anita Franklin, a mom turned anti-violence advocate when her son was shot and killed in 2014.
"It was her mission was to not let that happen to anybody else's kid," says Ricardo, Franklin's living son.

Until she died in 2020, Anita Franklin led the peace walks and fought to make the community safer from gun violence.
This year, a mural depicting Anita and her son was dedicated to them and "all our fallen Angels."

The late great Quentin McCord made huge plays in two of the biggest road wins in UK history.
In 1998 at No. 21 LSU, his end-around run set up the game-winning FG as time expired.
In 1999 at Vandy, he raced 80 yards for the winning TD that sent UK to the Music City Bowl.

After careful thought I will be retiring from coaching Basketball.
My all time record stands at 0-3.
In tonight’s game I asked to be T’d up to give my team some energy. The official refused..we we’re down 34. This ultimately lead to us getting mercy ruled.

I got a chance to visit Western Kentucky today in what was a very humbling experience. I firmly believe Mayfield will be back stronger than ever and I can’t wait to pay it another visit when it is!
