The war of words has begun. On Friday morning, Vince Marrow spoke publicly for the first time since making the rivalry move. Knowing what we know about Vince, there was a 100 percent chance that he was going to take a jab at his former school during the interview.

For any fans worried that Vince Marrow’s departure from Kentucky football for a job at archrival Louisville is a red flag for the future of the program, UK athletics director Mitch Barnhart has a message.

The rumors are true: Longtime Kentucky football coach Vince Marrow is headed to rival Louisville. It was reported this week that he'd be joining the University of Louisville football team as general manager, and on Thursday, UofL confirmed just that.
