Coen was hospitalized Sunday afternoon after suffering a “medical episode” at the UK Football offices on campus.

The original statement UK sent out said they expected Coen to be released on Monday, but the coach ended up having to stay an extra night, despite being in “good condition” throughout his stay.

The Cats host Akron Saturday at 7:30 P.M. on ESPNU. ESPN has Kentucky as a 26-point favorite.
