Shortly after introducing Dean Hood as its special teams and outside linebackers coach, the University of Kentucky football program announced the hire of Derrick LeBlanc as the team’s new defensive line coach.
“I’ve known Derrick and watched his progress as a coach,” Mark Stoops said in release announcing the news. “I was super-impressed with his interview, with the organization of his teaching and how good he is as an instructor. Fundamentals are important at every position but especially in the defensive line and I believe Derrick will be a great teacher of proper technique and fundamentals.
