Game Thread: Kentucky versus Florida

So UK buys out Stoops and the program starts all over again?

Yeah. I mean, we're all pretty used to that by now, right?

[uglyduckling]

It's alright everybody. This team is going to go back to work Monday and come in ready to play New Mexico State.

Yes, because there are fans that believe there are coaches lining up to sign with UK so much that all that is holding them back is the current coach hasn't been fired yet.....

[Pobilly]

Do you finish the year with Stoops or do you make changes now? I would at least get rid of Elliot today. Then go from there.

[Lighthouse]

I just got home and realizing how bad it is. Kinda glad I didn't have to watch the game, but reading some of the posts on here it seems to me like a few of you are enjoying UK getting spanked like this because you can bash the AD, the Coaches and probably the players, and you're so good at it. They may deserve it, but I thought this is a Kentucky Board. Go Cats!

[justafan]

Wow, the studio called it the state of Kentucky's largest Junior College........thats rough! Followed it up with "that was some pitiful football". Not holding back any punches, thats for sure.

I really wonder what Stoops can say other than he wants to apologize. If he wants to apologize, go back to his old contract!

Don't think much can be gained from firing coaches this early in the season, or even in the middle. Might as well let it play out.

The buyout to me is the major issue. UK can throw a lot of money at things, but that buyout is...significant. Unfortunately.

We're going to get mercilessly pummelled by some teams as we go on. That was a pretty blah Florida team. So I do think there will be at least some talk about Stoops getting fired by year's end.

I would have thought it was probably far-fetched until I got a look at this team. They're probation-era bad.

Eliot should have been gone yesterday. Let Stoops run the D and let the chips fall where they may. Offseason, re-evaluate.

[Matt Dillon]

And, so, it comes to a merciful end.

You know, UK players can't be happy with the outcome - but at least they weren't beaten by a "no time on the clock" play given to Central Michigan to overcome Oklahoma State! A play that should never have happened with the way the rule is written! Ouch, ouch, ouch!

Steve, this is a REALLY bad team with a Really bad coaching staff with REALLY bad Coordinators. What else you want to know? I know you have been a football fan longer than me, but years of service doesn't always mean the best way to go about things. Your a good guy Steve, but this staff is in over there heads. Barker had 2, TWO completions for 10 yards. Without looking, I'd bet UMass had more yards passing. UMASS!!!! This IS the state of UK football. No way to sugarcoat this.

[Spiritof96]

The AD don't. That was my point.

The point is absurd.

If you don't like Barhart or don't think he has done a good job fine; but stop with the "doesn't care" nonsense, it's silly.

[Bourbonman]

They're probably upset they chose this massacre and viewers had to be jumping to other games.

Yea, I'll never understand the fans insistence that Barnhart doesn't care about football. Its by far the bigger revenue generator and he knows that.
I mean on the one hand you've got people complaining that he unjustly threw a bunch of money at Stoops - if he didn't care about football he'd have left it alone and if he left he wouldn't care.
