Kentucky’s new staff keeps adding familiar faces who fit a clear offensive vision. The latest piece: Kolby Smith, who is set to become the Wildcats’ new running backs coach, per CBS Sports’ Matt Zenitz.
If the name rings a bell, it should. Smith was a standout running back at Louisville from 2003–06 before playing in the NFL, and he’s quietly built a strong résumé as a developer of backs in both college and the pros. His hiring continues a theme with Will Stein’s staff: bring in guys he trusts, who share his offensive DNA, and let that cohesion build something big.
