Kentucky head coach Mark Stoops credits Army Veteran for new calm demeanor

Everyone has that one person in their life that brings out the best in themselves. The one person that can help you channel the inner calmness that is needed to succeed in certain aspects of daily work. For University of Kentucky Football head coach Mark Stoops, that person is Jason Cummins.

Cummins’s job on paper is to serve as UK’s Executive Associate AD/Student-Athlete Experience. The position tasks him with “developing leaders of character, competence, and consequence for play and for life.” It goes a lot deeper than just student-athletes.

Prior to working in Lexington, Cummins had a stop working in the SEC league office.
