Mark Stoops is not going to apologize for calling Kentucky home. The Wildcats head coach is just 5-6 this year as the struggles continued Saturday in a 45-17 loss to Vanderbilt.
But, whether he returns next year or not (amid rumors that his tenure could be coming to an end), Stoops sent a clear message Monday. Heck, Kentucky can be bowl eligible if they beat Louisville this week.
“Whether you like it or not, I’m a Kentuckian now,” Stoops said.
