More from Matt:
UPDATE: The source tells KSR that after meetings
over the weekend, Vince Marrow and UK have reached the parameters of a
deal that will have him remain at Kentucky and with Mark Stoops. The
deal will be announced tomorrow but does include a raise in salary. The
Michigan offer obviously included such a raise as well and UK decided
to meet it with a similar amount, once again showcasing the commitment
to the UK football program.
This is a big day for UK football fans. For the Cats to be able to
keep an assistant, specifically one so crucial to recruiting, the area
in which Stoops and company have truly excelled, speaks wonders for this
program's movement. And to keep that assistant from Michigan and the
hottest coaching name out there right now, Jim Harbaugh, is even more
impressive. Credit Mark Stoops for his relationship with Marrow, Mitch
Barnhart and the administration for stepping to the plate and Marrow
himself, for showcasing the loyalty and commitment to UK football that
he has talked about for so long. Great day for the Cats.
