Backup QB Mossakowski to transfer from UK

University of Kentucky redshirt freshman Ryan Mossakowski said Monday that he has left the Wildcats football team and will transfer to another school.

"It's official," said Mossakowski, who met with Coach Joker Phillips and the UK staff this week.

The 6-foot-4, 224-pound Mossakowski arrived at UK as a highly touted, four-star quarterback after passing for 7,433 yards and 51 touchdowns during his career at Centennial High School in Frisco, Texas.

But Mossakowski had surgery to repair a torn labrum in his right (throwing) shoulder after his senior year of high school, and he redshirted as a freshman last fall.

Mossakowski was in a three-man battle for the starting job with Mike Hartline and Morgan Newton in the pre-season, but he ended up the No. 3 QB. He saw mop-up duty in three games and didn't throw a pass.
