A native of Warwick, Rhode Island, new Kentucky offensive coordinator Liam Coen heads to Lexington after stops at UMass as a player, followed by Brown, Rhode Island, UMass, Maine and the Los Angeles Rams as a coach.
At Kentucky, Coen joins defensive coordinator and fellow Rhode Island native Brad White, who also had stops at Wake Forest (player), Murray State, Air Force and the Indianapolis Colts as a coach before making his way to Lexington in 2018.
The former graduated from La Salle Academy in Providence, Rhode Island back in 2004, while the latter – a Portsmouth native – graduated from La Salle’s rival, Bishop Hendricken High School, in 2000.
