Details are emerging from the news of the day. Less than 24 hours after Kentucky fired Mark Stoops, we learned that the Wildcats will be replacing him with Will Stein.
Speed was always going to be a priority in this Kentucky football coaching search. After all, on the day Kentucky fired its coach, five other SEC schools hired new coaches. If you wait around too long, you’ll get left behind.
Kentucky moved quickly to bring Stein into the fold, but there is something else they must navigate. His Oregon Ducks are going to be in the College Football Playoff.
