Here is some info on his QB coach at Kentucky, talented guy: [URL='https://syracusefan.com/javascript%3A//']BIO[/URL] Liam Coen returned to the University of Kentucky football program in 2023, after serving one season as the offensive coordinator for the Los Angeles Rams in 2022-23. He returns to the Bluegrass as the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach, a title he also held at UK in 2021. Under Coen in 2021, the Wildcats ranked fifth in scoring offense (32.3 points per game) and eighth in total offense (425.2 yards per game) in the Southeastern Conference, including fifth in rushing offense at 199.5 yards per game. With Coen’s guidance, quarterback Will Levis finished sixth in the SEC in passing yards with 2,826, while running back Chris Rodriguez Jr. and wide receiver Wan’Dale Robinson each finished with the second-most rushing (1,379) and receiving yards (1,334), respectively, in the SEC. Kentucky posted a 10-3 record, including a 5-3 mark in the SEC. The Wildcats finished the 2021 regular season with a Governor’s Cup win over in-state rival Louisville, followed by edging Iowa in the Vrbo Citrus Bowl. Before Kentucky, Coen spent three years on the Rams’ staff from 2018-20. He served as assistant wide receivers coach in 2018 and 2019 before taking on assistant quarterbacks coach in 2020, when he helped Jared Goff post his fourth-consecutive season with 3,800 or more passing yards.
