Game Thread: Kentucky versus Florida

[Blue Heaven]

You UK fans who keep believing in this staff, I LOVE YA! But there comes a time in everyone's life where you have to stop pointing fingers and realize you are where you are because of the choices made (Barnhart). It's as plain as the nose on my face that this program needs a change.

So, is UK negative yardage for the 2nd half?? 26 yards in the 2nd half last week looking pretty good!

[Spiritof96]

It has EVERYTHING to do with it! We have an AD who is just thankful that his basketball coach worked out. This is the guy who hired Billy!?!?!?!? We HAVE to shed this label. It IS possible here. We have the facilities and good recruits. We need an up and coming coaching staff that's all. They gotta start somewhere. You gonna sit and tell me that Mark Hermann had great recruits before he was hired at Houston? You gonna tell me they have better recruits than us? I don't believe it NOW. We have the players,but our staff is terrible! Time for a change. Yeah, Stoops got us the facilities and all, but what we gonna do when those things won't factor into wins?

Nothing to do with it...

"Basketball school" implies that the AD and or the fan base doesn't care about football...

There is ZERO evidence that's true and MILLIONS of data points suggesting it isn't.

You gonna tell me UMAss HELD this team to 24? This is a BAAAAAAAD coaching staff. No other way to put it.

[thughes]

I think Johnson is afraid to pass.

He definitely has a mind set to run the ball first. I would like to see him throw at least one pass just to see how well or how poorly he can throw.

If they have a substitute interview after the game, Spurrier saying UK's punter being pretty good might be funny (again).......

So where do the coaches go from here. Meaning, how can they even try to turn this around. They have some major issues and I think the top issue might be this team is already giving up on them. They are not even running to the play any longer. O line is not doing a thing. I have fun not matter what. I have not even been upset today. I did not think we would beat UofF. After last week most of us thought we would be 0-2 after this week. So how does the coaches get this team up for the next game. Crowd will not be there. Fans will show their distaste for this type of football. Can the coaches get them back.

I think this is a lost cause for Stoops.

Stoops isn't even wearing his headset anymore. I guess he is giving up along with 99% of our team.

The AD don't. That was my point.

Two completed passes for 10 yards.

Barnhart was brought in as a football-first AD.

He doesn't even manage the day-to-day operations of the basketball team.

I think he cares about football.

But there's a difference between caring and ineptitude.

Inexcusable.

[teamchemistry15]

Would it be possible to hire a new head coach and hire Stoops as our DC?

[Uncle Dave]

My alma mater's FB team SUCKS!!! This is embarrassing to me. Good grief.

HUGE difference Will. I would like to think that he is sitting there wondering why he gave Stoops such a huge extension, but I would bet the farm that that thought hasn't crossed his mind. Of course no way to prove this. We just have the previous years football results to go on!!!!!
