After just one year of service, Eric Wolford is on the move as the Kansas State alum is heading to Alabama to take over the offensive line room for Nick Saban. That means Mark Stoops is now looking for a third offensive line coach in three seasons.
Wolford made some very positive impacts in his short stint as the Wildcats had one of the best offensive lines in 2021. Meanwhile, the early recruiting results were quite promising. However, Kentucky enters a transition year without a guy who made some important decisions last season.
Play-callers get most of the attention, but outside of a strength coach perhaps no other individual assistant makes a bigger impact on a football team than the offensive line coach.
