Mark Stoops fully supports Boom Williams Sr.

There’s been a big controversy surrounding the absence of Boom Williams Sr. at last Saturday’s Cat Walk. Williams was missing inside the ropes, where he was the star of the show prior to kickoff in the season opener. Williams Sr. said UK Police told him Mark Stoops asked that he be barred from entering the street prior to last weekend’s game.

Stoops said that’s simply not true, however. He called Boom Sr. on Sunday to let him know he had nothing to do with it, according to Larry Vaught.

“[Stoops] told me he didn’t know where the police got that from,” Williams told Vaught.
