Kentucky has officially announced that defensive backs coach Steve Clinkscale was promoted to defensive pass game coordinator. That happened for a reason.
Since losing the entire secondary following the 2018 season, the Wildcats have done a great job reloading and it has allowed the program to field solid defenses the last two seasons. The secondary should produce two draft picks next month and now we’re hearing how Kentucky may go to a hybrid defense that puts an extra safety on the field.
Kentucky’s defense is evolving and that is starting to pay dividends on the recruiting trail.
