Good to hear him come in to the program with confidence.
Shannon Dawson has not doubts that Kentucky can win in the Southeastern Conference.
“I think I can be successful anywhere. Maybe I am naive to the point but I’ve taken over a couple of programs that didn’t win any games a year before and we were close to winning national championships at both those programs,” said Dawson, UK’s new offensive coordinator. “When I look at our kids, I see a bunch of kids look the part. I don’t know how they play on the field. But I am watching them in the team meeting room walking down and introducing themselves to me.
“My job is getting those guys to buy in. If you buy in wholeheartedly as a group then you can accomplish anything. Last time I checked everybody can put 11 players on the field. It’s not like we didn’t play anybody in our league over the last four years, we did. I think you can be successful anywhere if you do it the right way.”
Dawson, who started his coaching career working for former UK coach Hal Mumme, comes to UK from West Virginia to take over the offense Neal Brown and head coach Mark Stoops put together the last two years at UK before Brown left to become head coach at Troy.
“You lay out a practice plan and you stick with it. The problem that a lot of coaches make is you change too much,” Dawson said. “Our overall ways of practicing and laying it out has been consistent over the years and that is one thing that has been consistent on offense from the last 15 years is the way we practice and the way we install. I think you have to program kids a certain way and hold them accountable to it.”

It's never too late. Remember, unlike basketball, football coaches attempt to steal recruits from other programs until signing day!
