“I can’t speak for anybody else, but we’re going to Kentucky,” George Briscoe, Isaiah’s father, told SNY.tv. “I never heard of it and I don’t have any comments on that. I know we’re going to Kentucky.”

I found the use of the word 'We're" very interesting. Was George Briscoe hired as a coach or some other position at Kentucky?

I think it is just the weird dynamic we see now of parents latching on to their kids accomplishments.

Sounds like he is part of his sons entourage.
