Warehime's Quick Exit: Kentucky Loses Coach Before First Game
16 Feb
Summary
- Coach Warehime departs Kentucky before coaching a single game.
- He joins the Minnesota Vikings as an assistant offensive line coach.
- Warehime previously spent four seasons at Coastal Carolina.
Derek Warehime, recently appointed as Kentucky's run game coordinator under new head coach Will Stein, is departing the program. He is accepting a position as an assistant offensive line coach with the Minnesota Vikings.
This move comes before Warehime has coached any games for Kentucky, representing a significant early adjustment for Stein's inaugural coaching staff. Warehime previously served four seasons on the coaching staff at Coastal Carolina.
With nearly two decades of coaching experience, Warehime has also held roles with Texas and Houston, including an offensive line position during Houston's Peach Bowl victory over Florida State. His departure necessitates that Kentucky again address a key offensive staff opening.
