Kentucky’s coaching staff will be at full strength when the Wildcats travel to Charlotte to take on Virginia Tech in the Belk Bowl.
Earlier this week Dean Hood was hired by Murray State to be the Racers’ next head coach. Before he completes his return to the OVC, Hood will be on the sideline for one more game as UK’s special teams coordinator.
“I’m very happy for Dean,” Mark Stoops said Friday evening. “Dean’s worked extremely hard. He’s been a big asset to us. Absolutely he’s welcome to be here. He’s here today. He won’t be able to be here tomorrow for practice.
