What a ride it’s been for Kentucky football under the watch of Mark Stoops.
When Stoops arrived at Kentucky in 2013, the program was in the midst of one of its darkest periods ever, going 2-10 in back-to-back seasons, marking the first time in program history Kentucky lost 20 games over a two-year stretch.
Things got so bad that the Wildcats lost to EKU in a summer 7-on-7 scrimmage prior to Stoops’ first season in Lexington.
Kentucky was also enduring what would end up being a 31-game losing streak to the Florida Gators.
