Mark Stoops says he is staying at Kentucky after multiple reports this weekend linked him to the head coaching vacancy at Texas A&M.

Stoops, who is in his 11th season at Kentucky, announced his decision on social media early Sunday morning, less than 24 hours after the Wildcats' upset victory over No. 10 Louisville.

Although he did not specifically mention Texas A&M, Stoops said in his social media post that he was "contacted about a potential opportunity this weekend."

I know there's been much speculation about me and my job situation the last couple of days.
