Liam Coen was brought into the Kentucky football program in the offseason by Mark Stoops to fix the offense in Lexington. Too often, the Wildcats could not score enough points to win games in big spots.
Under Eddie Gran, Kentucky scored 10 points or less on offense in 11 SEC games from 2016-20. The Wildcats would only score 14 points in a win against Vanderbilt and 15 points in a win against Missouri. That same year, the Wildcats had just one offensive touchdown in a huge road game against Texas A&M.
After being held without a touchdown in two conference games last season, Stoops knew his program needed to make a change.
