WATCH: Mark Stoops vents about his players that are facing legal trouble
It doesn’t take a scientist to tell that this is a sensitive subject for Coach Stoops, and he said himself that they take great pride in doing the right thing as a program, and aren‘t afraid of disciplining players when need be.
This summer, 6 UK Football players (Vito Tisdale, Reuben "RJ" Adams, Robert "Jutahn" McClain, Andreu Phillips, Earnest Sanders and Joel Williams) were all charged with first-degree burglary, and one with wanton endangerment.
Outside of a few media interviews here and there, this was the first time Stoops addressed the situation in a press conference matter, where he spent the time venting and voicing his opinion on the case, rather than just bluntly answer questions when asked.
