Kentucky head coach Mark Stoops has named John Settle the new running backs coach/co-special teams coordinator, the school announced Monday. Settle will coach the special teams along with safeties coach Frank Buffano.
“When you look at John’s resume and the places he’s been, coming from a great program and his NFL experience, it was a no-brainer for me,” Stoops said in a press release. “John’s personality, background and work ethic made him attractive. He’s done a remarkable job at Wisconsin and everywhere else he’s been. With his experience, he also will help with the big picture and special teams.
