Vince Marrow made an appearance on 93.9 The Ville on Friday morning and fired off some parting shots at Kentucky following his abrupt move to Louisville.
Marrow, an assistant for Mark Stoops for the better part of a decade at Kentucky, left Lexington last week to become the new general manager for Jeff Brohm’s Louisville program. With the Cardinals, Marrow is set to oversee roster management, the transfer portal, and Louisville’s broader recruiting efforts. Marrow also played a big role in recruiting at Kentucky; he said Friday his job is now a bit easier.
“Sometimes I didn’t have that much to sell (at Kentucky) in certain years, and still brought in 4-stars, high 4-stars, but this is easy. This is going to be real easy to sell, and I think I can do it with the best,” he said on The Deener Show. “I’m selling a top-10 coach, who’s the best offensive mind, one of the best offensive minds in college football. I deal with the NFL a lot. There’s a lot of GMs that really admire Jeff. [It’s easy] selling that and selling the city.
“I gotta be honest, being in Lexington for 13 years, and that was great. I loved Lexington, and it was kind of like, not that I was brainwashed, but you get locked in. When I took over and started to recruit in Louisville in the city, I started to see, ‘Wow, this place really got a lot, a lot going for it’… I just think Louisville is a city. It’s a great city to sell.”
Kentucky was reportedly caught off guard by Marrow’s departure when it was first reported last week. In a statement provided to ESPN on Thursday, Marrow said he had “every desire” to maintain “lifelong friendships” that were built during his time at Kentucky.
“That is one of the reasons I wanted to stay in this state,” Marrow said in his statement.
But his comments on the radio on Friday — his first public comments since taking the job — added a bit of fuel to the rivalry.
“Once that contract was signed, it’s war,” Marrow said. “We’re going to be in some battles and I know that.”
