The University of Kentucky announced that Mark Stoops will remain as the Wildcats’ head coach through 2028. Athletics Director Mitch Barnhart deserves a great deal of credit for securing his coach for the foreseeable future. By doing so, Barnhart solidified the university’s long-term commitment to modern-day football in an ever-changing, financial environment.

As I like to write in my Sunday AAR article, let’s get to the BLUF (Bottom-Line-Up-Front). Mark Stoops was going to receive a multimillion-dollar raise at Kentucky or elsewhere.
