Mike Stoops excited to help brother Mark "take last step" at Kentucky

Mike Stoops has seen what it takes to make a football program a National Title contender. He experienced it firsthand over a decade at Oklahoma and in two seasons at Alabama. Now he’s teaming up with his brother, Mark, to help Kentucky get over the last and most difficult hurdle.

Monday night the new UK linebackers coach took a break from the recruiting trail with Brad White and Chris Collins to talk about his new job on BBN Radio. He’s watched “Coach Mark” turn around the Kentucky football program and now he believes it’s close to reaching the next level in college football’s hierarchy.
