What he’s done to make UK competitive is nice, I don’t think it necessarily suggests he’s a big time coach and would translate here.

It sort of reminds me of when Jackie sherrill would heavily rely on JUCOS to help elevate MSU to competitive status.

If you’re arguing over how many winning seasons a coach has then he’s not a winner. Jesus. Your definition of the word “winner” is fukin embarrassing. Stoops nor Napier are worthy of this job. It’s that simple.

He seems like another Les/O type coach. Maybe just a slight tier above. What does he do well as a coach? Obviously he’s a decent coach, but I think everyone is tired of not having a coach who is elite at at least one side of the ball X and O wise.


His defenses at FSU were top 10 his last 2 years there and 20th his first year.

It’s not exactly easy to get the horses at Kentucky for a dominant defense

Go away. This would be an absolute disgusting horrible hire.

If you want Stoops I guess you wouldn’t mind Mullen either.

He has the highest winning percentage at Kentucky in 60 years! He has a winning record. That, by definition, makes him a winner. Don’t lecture me on definitions, moron.

You are a simpleton if you think Stoops is even a remotely good hire.

I never said I wanted Stoops. Y’all are so stupid! I said he was far from my 1st choice. I simply asked why everyone was so down on him.

Well, you invited everyone in here to tell you why he isn’t a good coach, and people did. Then you proceeded to argue with everyone about it. That’s probably what led people to believe that he’s your guy.

I don’t think he’s a bad Coach. I think he’s comparable to Matt Campbell. People love Campbell and hate Stoops. Just doesn’t add up to me. But he’s not at all my guy.

Because people got themselves all whipped up into thinking we're going to get Lincoln Riley or Rhule. If in your mind you think those guys are coming of course Stoops would be a huge letdown.

I don't want him but our candidate needs to be somewhere in between the floor (Stoops) and fantasy (Riley).

If by "winner" you mean not an abject loser (they are 5-3 in the SEC East), then OK.
