The first offseason hire for Mark Stoops now seems imminent. On Wednesday, long-time Power Five assistant Jay Boulware became a name to know.
KSR’s Matt Jones is reporting that the 50-year-old is expected to be the new running backs coach and special teams coordinator at Kentucky. This comes just over a week after John Settle was relieved of his duties after two seasons in Lexington.
Just two days before this potential hiring news leaked, Stoops spoke with reporters and was asked what he was looking for in a new running backs coach.
“A lot of things,” Stoops said.
