Mark Stoops Responds to Paul Finebaum’s Low Blow

Paul Finebaum took a shot at Mark Stoops’ Kentucky football program. The UK head coach provided a counterpunch Thursday evening.

After the Wildcats’ sluggish 0-2 start to the 2020 season, the voice of the SEC Network used an appearance on WJOX-FM in Birmingham to fire back at Kentucky fans who constantly questioned the preseason disrespect from the national media.

“For every Kentucky fan who called up to whatever show in Lexington or our show or anybody’s show and said, ‘How come nobody respects Kentucky? How come they’re not ranked high?’ Well, that’s why,” Finebaum said.
