Kentucky lost to Louisville, extinguishing any hopes of extending the season for one more game. That means 25 Kentucky Wildcats played in their final game. It also could be the last game for much of Mark Stoops‘ coaching staff.
Seven of the ten assistant coaches are in the final year of their contracts with the school. Only offensive coordinator Bush Hamdan, wide receivers coach L’Damian Washington, and offensive line coach Eric Wolford have deals through the 2026 season.
The entire defensive staff is up for renewal, or on the chopping block, depending on how you look at it.
