With the news being confirmed less than one week ago, it’s official: Liam Coen has returned to Kentucky as Mark Stoops’ offensive coordinator.
Coen departed Lexington for the Los Angeles Rams after the 2021 college football season, forcing Stoops to scramble to replace the dynamic play caller.
Following the hiring, and subsequent firing after just one season of Rich Scangarello, Coen couldn’t refuse the opportunity to rejoin the Wildcats.
“Just being a part of the Kentucky culture again and coming back to a place that I truly didn’t want to leave (is special),” Coen said.
