Sources: Mark Stoops to Kentucky

Another member of the Stoops family is joining the head coaching fraternity.

Mark Stoops, Florida State's defensive coordinator, has agreed to become the next head coach at Kentucky, sources told ESPN.

Kentucky will officially announce its hiring of Stoops on Tuesday, according to the sources.

Stoops, 45, replaces Joker Phillips, who was fired after guiding the Wildcats to three straight losing seasons. Stoops has been the defensive coordinator at Florida State since 2009.
