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.
