Looks like we will have a new offensive coordinator.
Rich Scangarello Out
- Thread starter UKCATS8
- Start date
Handing out insane raises while we have to have scape goats.
Only at kentucky

Probably someone that doesn't want to run outside zone, and hopefully somebody that isn't in love with bubble screens.
Thank you, although his million dollar buyout should come from Stoops paycheck
Hopefully college, clear the NFL thing isn’t what it cracked up to be
Someone who we will all be saying the same things about next year as we did Scan this year. Then we will get to search for our 5th OC in 5 years instead of 4th in 4.
You can't be serious.
Did we say that about Coen?
You can't be serious about questioning my seriousness
If you think Stoops deserved a raise this year then you must be named Mitch.
I wouldn’t mind Brian hartline from Ohio state if he were interested In the job, but coen is good as well
Possibly. If I'm Mark Stoops, I'd find the hungriest mid-major OC out there.
Regardless of how you feel about Stoops, the biggest difference between last year and this year was how the offense played. He’s now addressing the issue. Why *****?
Some of you guys don’t remember the pre Stoops days, huh?

I'm actually surprised. UK needs to send Coen the buy out bill
That would be fine by me. I would be surprised if we didn't make that attempt before we reach out to someone else.
You may recall Stoops had his eye on a young guy, 37 or so I think but whose name escapes me, also with the 49ers, when he came across Scang while vetting the other guy. Anybody recall who that guy was?
Yes, many still complained about the offense under Coen. Just because we had our best offense under Stoops with Coen at OC, doesn't mean it was exactly strong nationally. Care to provide our offense rankings for last year?
Who coaches in our bowl game? Would be nice to get someone in quickly to get an early start on next year.
We absolutely did not .
KY finished with a top #40 offense in 2021. Dropped all the way to 107 this year. If we are just somewhere in the 80's we win 9 games easy. Shows what a poor job Scan did.
I can’t see how you can possibly keep Yenser either. Running backs and schemes were better than the Oline and they both are unemployed. That’s a mountain of turnover.
Scang was a savant, according to all of the reports out of UK. He was an encyclopedia of football knowledge. White praised him. Stoops praised him. What the hell happened?
Stoops raise is relative to revenue and headaches. I can assure you his headaches have more than doubled with NIL. The issue with your post is referring to Scan as a scapegoat. No, he was not competent for this job and was rightfully let go. What you're inferring with "scapegoat" is absurd.
Thought he was a good guy. Unfortunately, it's not a popularity contest. Results-oriented position. As we all know, Cats were in the basement of most offensive categories.
Having knowledge and being able to communicate that knowledge to athletes aren't always hand in hand.
Minimize, minimize, minimize UK football at every turn. Some fans UK has, huh??
The offense runs thru the HC.
Agreed, praying he doesn’t hire another journeyman washed up coach. Give me a younger guy who wants to prove himself.
Being knowledgeable and being able to use that knowledge effectively are two separate things.
Getting Coen back would be awesome. Doubt it happens. But there's still chatter that Sean McVay wants to retire to a cushy broadcasting job and a new head coach would bring in a new staff. Plus Stafford is washed, the Rams have the worst RB corp in the NFL and the whole franchise seems to be headed toward a rebuild.
I'm not sure it really matters that much. I still don't believe Stoops will ever fully trust any OC. "Complementary football" will always be king with Stoops.
Knowing and doing are always two separate things.
Scang was just too rigid. He was all about the system and he didn't stray at all from the system. At the college level, you either adapt on the fly, or you end up getting fired. Scang simply failed to play to the strengths of the guys he had.
He can have all that knowledge and not be a good play caller. Levis said he learned more about being a QB this year than every before. I think Scang is great with QBs but not with other things that make a good OC.
