SEC’s longest-tenured coach, Mark Stoops back to rebuilding at Kentucky
Mark Stoops faces his biggest challenge at Kentucky going into his 13th season as the longest-tenured coach in the Southeastern Conference.
The Wildcats are coming off a 4-8 record that is their worst since going 2-10 in Stoops’ debut season in 2013. Stoops also lost associate head coach Vince Marrow, who had been with him since he came to Kentucky, to in-state rival Louisville in June.
Stoops believes he’s looked at what went wrong to fix everything.
“We didn’t want to just move past it,” Stoops said. “We had to look at everything, turn over every stone and make sure that we were doing things to the best of our ability. I feel like we’ve done that.”
Stoops has nine starters back. He also went into the transfer portal for 26 more along with 11 incoming freshmen
