Boley becomes a big pickup for head coach Kenny Dillingham, who was searching for a new quarterback after losing All–Big 12 starter Sam Leavitt.
The Hodgenville native began the season as Kentucky’s backup, but took over the starting job after an early injury to Zach Calzada. He went on to play in 11 games, throwing for over 2,100 yards and 15 touchdowns.

Boley now looks for a fresh start at Arizona State.
