Minton*, and he never saw the field at UK.

Judging by your certainty in your statements I'm guessing you never saw Cole play. He was easily one the top 3 WRs in Kentucky since the turn of the century. I'll give you his stats at Vandy weren't great but he was on a triple option team and was hurt his entire time at Vandy. He did lead them in receiving his redshirt freshman year. If he had gone to Stanford which he almost did (Jim Harbaugh was at his home in Somerset multiple times his senior year) we may be singing a different tune about Cole at this point. As it stands he is statistically THE BEST WR to play in Kentucky. Johnson I'm sure is a great high school WR, but Cole wasn't exactly chopped liver.

To me, stats don't matter. Both were and are great receivers for this area. Who's the best comes down to college coaches. Cole was good enough to play at Vandy. If Johnson can play somewhere better I'll say he is the best, but for now with Cole playing in the SEC I'll go with him. I will take college coaches opinions on how good someone is over BGR posters every time. Johnson still has one more season, so we'll see.
