UK football promotes Derek Shay to replace Vince Marrow as tight ends coach

The Kentucky football program has promoted Derek Shay from senior offensive analyst/run game specialist to tight ends coach.

Shay replaces Vince Marrow, who surprisingly left UK to join Louisville’s staff.

“We are fortunate to have someone already on our staff who has coached tight ends at a high level and led those rooms successfully,” Stoops said. “He is familiar with Coach (Bush) Hamdan’s system and I’m very confident in his abilities. His versatility, football IQ, and on-field toughness will be a valuable addition to our offense.”

Here is a press release from UK Athletics:
