It's been a terrible disappointment for any UK football fan. And while most of us take a lot of flack, I'm a football fan first, then basketball. It's a given we will be at the top in basketball, but I've enjoyed the few times UK has been competitive both nationally and in the SEC.

The 2007 season was magical for a UK fan, beating #8 Louisville, and #1 LSU in the same season, and hosting gameday. That season was a lot of fun. It's nice to have them once in a while.

Some fans are pretty spoiled, just like UK basketball fans, we take success for granted.

I liked the Stoops hire, he's been the only hire I really liked of Barnhart, although I understood the Joker promotion. To say that 4 years later it has really been a disappointment is to make it an understatement.

In 4 years Stoops has gotten tremendously wealthy, had 4 of the best recruiting classes in UK football history, and teams that can't play defense, and he is a defensive coach. I can tell we have players with talent and speed, but it's not translating into wins on the field. I'm at a loss for why. It's not like he hasn't been given every resource to succeed he has needed.

Some people are just not head coaches. Joker wasn't, Kiffin wasn't, and it appears Stoops isn't either. I'm a sad Kentucky fan for my team.
