Kentucky Football: Mark Stoops Set to Fill Defensive Coaching Vacancies

Kentucky Football finished the 2016 season with a 7-6 record and a birth in the TaxSlayer Bowl. Mark Stoops and company have done their work and recruited the best players possible during this rebuilding period. Some aspects of the team, mainly coaching departures is a sign of good things. Coaches come and go just as players do. Kentucky has had a few coaches leave other schools for promotional reasons. Neal Brown, Any Buh, and now D.J. Eliot and Jimmy Brumbagh have all left for better positions with different teams. Mark Stoops has always been a defensive minded coach since his days at Florida State as the Defensive Coordinator.
