After a dismal 2022 season offensively, Kentucky coach Mark Stoops vows the unit will be much better this fall.

"We're going to improve," the UK head coach said as the Wildcats wrapped up their 15th and final spring practice. "I feel very confident that we'll improve."

Last season, the Wildcats ranked last in the SEC in both points (22.1) and yards (336.3) per game, which led to offensive coordinator Rich Scangarello's dismissal after just one season.

But there is reason to believe the offense will be far better in 2023, thanks to the return of coordinator Liam Coen, a revamped backfield — with key transfer portal additions in quarterback Devin Leary and running back Ray Davis — and more weapons in the passing game.

The Wildcats' hope their 2023 offense resembles the high-octane attack they fielded in Coen's one-year stint as OC in 2021.

That year, UK lit up the scoreboard and piled up yards — averaging 32.2 points and 424.1 yards an outing.

It can't get much worse than last in points and yards. Hopefully we'll see the offense we seen two years ago.
