Louisville football fans erupt after Will Stein becomes the new face of Kentucky

Louisville football fans learned that their former quarterback, Will Stein, will take over as head coach for the Kentucky Wildcats, leaving them with quite mixed feelings. Kentucky and Mark Stoops parted ways after 13 seasons, as the Cats were blown out by Louisville for the second straight season and finished 5-7.

The coaching carousel has been a hot topic recently, with Florida and Auburn finding their next coach, and of course, LSU stealing Lane Kiffin from Ole Miss. And now, Kentucky will join the mix, but the Cats didn't need much time to reach out to their guy, and Stein quickly took the job.
