Post-practice interview with Mark StoopsIt was a family reunion of sorts at the Nutter Training Facility on Wednesday, as Mark Stoops was joined on the practice field by brothers Mark and Mike.Oklahoma — where Bob and Mike serve as head coach and defensive coordinator respectively — wrapped up spring practice earlier this month, so two of Mark’s three older brothers took the opportunity to pay a visit to Lexington.”We’re going to go watch film and all that right now and everything,” Mark Stoops said. “They came in last night and talked some football with us. It was good to have them.”Of course the Stoops brothers will spend some time catching up and enjoying themselves, but media watching the first half of practice on Wednesday saw firsthand that Mark Stoops will be calling on his brothers’ expertise.”That’s what there here for,” Mark Stoops said. “I mean, they’re not here just for fun. You know, we’ve got to put them to work. … We talk about ideas, ways to do things, different change ups, how they may play a certain formation or a certain adjustment. So it’s good to have them here. I’m definitely going to utilize them while they’re here to go watch some film of this practice and some previous spring practices and get some work done.”Bob Stoops even traded his normal crimson and cream for a UK pullover.”They like to support us,” Mark Stoops said. “He’s proud to wear it. I’m sure he’ll take that home with him.”Stoops reported the Wildcats had another “good, physical practice” with his brothers and John Calipari watching, including a period of solid work on short-yardage situations. UK continues to plug along through the final week of spring, battling through a number of injuries on both sides of the ball.”It just happens,” Stoops said. “That’s the way it is. Some of them were through the winter with surgeries and some of them were dinged up in practice. The good news is, I think there’s nothing major — knock on wood — nothing that’s gonna keep guys out for the year. So we should be at 100 percent if we don’t have anything new happen.”The latest injury is to sophomore wide receiver Jeff Badet, who broke his fibula on Monday. Stoops called the injury a clean break, meaning no surgery will be needed. Badet is expected to miss two-to-three months but heal in time for fall camp.”He was alone,” Stoops said. “It was a good play-action pass; he was wide-open. He kind of got underthrown and just a freaky accident.”Badet’s injury is another short-term blow to UK’s wide receiver depth, as is A.J. Legree’s decision to transfer, which Stoops announced on Wednesday. As a result, Stoops is considering ways to minimize injury risk at Saturday’s Spring Game while also still putting on a show for fans.”It looks like I’m gonna split it up ones against everybody else,” Stoops said. “So the only thing it’ll change as far as the fans and things like that — and most people do it — you’re gonna speed up the game somehow. We can’t afford to take a whole boatload of reps. We’re just thin. So we’ll iron out all the details and tell you, but it’ll be very similar to last year. Some type of abbreviated schedule.”D.J.
