From the Courier Journal & Kyle Tucker:

"Fight night at Stoops' house. In explaining what a family UK football has become, Stoops said he got a text from sophomore defensive tackle Matt Elam two weekends ago wondering what his coach was up to. Neither was busy, so Elam came to Stoops' house and the two watched a mixed martial arts fight together and then hung out until the wee hours. "I look down at the clock and it's about 1:30 in the morning and I said, 'Matt, I gotta go to bed.' "

Also, here's a pic of Stoops & Brooks from the women's clinic earlier today (I vote that we somehow persuade Brooks to stay in Lex for a year & come on as Special teams coach and assistant DC :uzi:

Man those guys are in shape. Stoops has lost his gut he had going on before surgery and Rich Brooks was always a man in shape for his age.

That was my first thought too..Stoops looks in shape.. What kind of surgery?
 
Brooks was a boxer. So he must have amazing self discipline. Stoops has a weird mouth. He always looks like he's mid-sentence when a photo is taken.

Great to see Coach Brooks back around the program again. He and Stoops seem to have great respect for each other. Also, both are and were players coaches.
