Vince Marrow: “Deep down in my heart I knew I wasn’t leaving [Kentucky]”

From Wednesday morning through Friday evening, the Kentucky fanbase patiently impatiently awaited UK associate head coach and recruiting coordinator Vince Marrow’s decision on his future.

On one hand, Marrow was being heavily recruited by newly-hired Michigan State head coach and longtime friend Mel Tucker to become one of his top assistants in East Lansing, potentially earning a massive pay-raise in the process.

On the other, Mark Stoops – also a longtime friend of Marrow – and the Kentucky coaching staff was begging Marrow to return and see the fruits of their labor blossom in the form of a potential trip to Atlanta for the SEC Championship, with a hefty raise also on the docket should he opt to stick around in Lexington.
