The offseason has been busy for Mark Stoops’ Kentucky football program. There were not one, not two, but FIVE coaching searches, the most recent concluding with the addition of Georgia State defensive backs coach Chris Collins.
Steve Clinkscale left an untimely void on Stoops’ staff. Typically, the coaching carousel stops spinning in the early spring around February or March. Finding a coach in mid to late May is a difficult task. Timing was not on Collins’ side either as his wife prepared to have their first child. Somehow, Collins was able to negotiate for the new job while his wife brought a new life into the world.
