If you were expecting a resignation speech or a somber apology tour on the postgame radio show, you don’t know Mark Stoops.

Fresh off a historic 41-0 beatdown by Louisville, the first time Kentucky has been shut out in the rivalry since 2004, Stoops didn't sound like a man packing his bags. He sounded like a man digging his heels in. Even though he coached one of the worst games in his tenure as Kentucky football coach.

In a radio appearance that swung between defensive and defiant, Stoops addressed the "rough day," his job security, and the mysterious "resources" he believes will fuel a quick turnaround.
