Kentucky will have a new offensive coordinator next season, according to a source.

A source told WKYT in Lexington that Shannon Dawson will not return after just one season in Lexington after coming to the Wildcats from West Virginia when Neal Brown left to become the head coach at Troy.

Kentucky finished the season ranked 10th in the SEC in scoring offense (24.7 points per game) and 10th in yards per play (5.5).
