Why is everybody so down on Stoops. Dude has made Kentucky into a winner.

He’s clearly a good coach. I mean, he’s not at all my top choice, but he’s an absolute upgrade. What’s the problem?

We didn’t get Woodward to hire a coach like Mark Stoops. We just didn’t. It’s that simple.

LSU finally has a competent AD and a crap ton of money to throw at a coach this year. When you have that type of hand you don’t fold for Mark Stoops. Simple as that.

So scott woodward raised 25 million to fire O and staff and replace him with...
mark stoops?
mark stoops?

He’s not LSU’s caliber. Period. We shouldn’t be in the business of picking up that plucky fella just looking for his shot. I’d also argue that Stoops has gone this long at Kentucky because the East is a shithole annually. He filled a void that SCar, Mizzou, Vandy, and UT couldn’t. He’s merely third place in a shite division because no one else will step up to the plate.

GFY. People like you are why we were stuck with O

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.
Seems more like Les than O. Perennially have us 8-4 to 10-2.
Also the SEC east has been terrible during this stretch of them winning 7-9 games. Outside of us this year has he won an SEC west game?

Because this hire is supposed to have us losing one to two games MAX in a few years. In year 3 we should not be losing more than two games. And after year 3, it should never be more than two. That is realistic given our talent and resources. Stoops is at best a consistent 3 loss coach.

3 winning seasons in 9 years isn't good enough.

Not good enough, it's that simple.

Stoops is a good coach. He really is. I just don't think, as others have said, that's the move that Scott Woodward, a man well renowned throughout college athletics, came home to his alma mater to make

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.

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

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

Yay?
There are a ton of coaches better than him. Let's not try to be like Kentucky.

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.
