Quick Glance: Kenny Brooks' Virginia Tech Exit and Its Impact on Kentucky
- Two days after fourth-seeded Virginia Tech was upset in the second round of the women's NCAA tournament, Kenny Brooks has stepped down to take over as head coach of the Kentucky Wildcats.
- Brooks boasts an impressive career record as a Division I head coach with a .717 winning percentage in 22 seasons. He replaces Kyra Elzy in Lexington after she was let go due to consecutive losing seasons.
- Brooks brings a successful tenure at Virginia Tech, where he led the team to a Final Four appearance and led the ACC in offensive efficiency and effective field goal percentage. In contrast, Kentucky ranked last in both categories this past season.
- Brooks' departure signifies a time of transition for Virginia Tech, as the team was already facing changes with key players potentially leaving. The Hokies now need to find a new coach who can continue the success under Brooks, while the ACC navigates a period of uncertainty.
